"Stand Up!"

Stand Up!

Don't give up.
Don't wave the white flag.
Don't give in.
What a shame!
What a sin!

Those in power are afraid of you.
You're afraid too.
Don't let courage melt in the face of fear,
Else no one will hear.

Its a cruel fate
To realize too late
You were right all along.
Don't think twice.
Sing your fight song.

Get in tune
And do it soon.
Don't worry about a thing.
Jump on the train
And speak plain.

Tell the truth in your youth.
You still have time.
"Face the fear and do it anyway."
Who cares what others say!

Its your life.
Face the strife.
If you're wrong,
Forget it.
But if you're right,
Fight!
You'll never regret it.
