Stand Up lyrics

Dream yourself awake

Can't make it through the night

Wicked dreams will haunt you

When the morning light shines

You try to find your way outside

Just another day

You try to let them shine

The people disappoint you

Makes you wonder why you cry

You can almost see the end of you

So come on stand up

Yeah put your hands up

It ain't wrong to be strong

And it's gonna be gone

And then they won't come back to you

No, no, no, no, wake up

Try not to break up

If they're holding you down

Then you rise to the top

'Cause you're a bad, bad girl

And you just can't stop, no, no, no

Give yourself a break

Listen to your heart

Let your conscience guide you

Never let your guard down

Find out the best of you

Everything you do

And what is done to you

Doesn't have to change you

It only makes you stronger and stronger

The more they take away from you

So come on stand up

Yeah, put your hands up

It ain't wrong to be strong

And it's gonna be gone

And then they won't come back to you

No, no, no, no, wake up

Try not to break up

If they're holding you down

Then you rise to the top

'Cause you're a bad, bad girl

And you just can't stop, no, no, no

'Cause you're a bad, bad girl

And you just can't stop, no, no, no

You won't lead no beggars life

And you sure don't need their bad advice

Or their five cents worth of what they think of you

Sometimes they're not so into you

Keep your head up above that line, you know

Everybody loses sometimes

Shame, shame, shame

The things they've done to you

So come on stand up

Yeah, put your hands up

It ain't wrong to be strong

And it's gonna be gone

And then they won't come back to you

No, no, no, no, wake up

Try not to break up

If they're holding you down

Then you rise to the top

'Cause you're a bad, bad girl

And you just can't stop, no, no, no
