Skindred - Stand For Something lyrics

rate me

Caught in chains, <br />

Shackles on too tight.<br />

Squirming for your life<br />

Because you've gone and lost your freedom.<br />

<br />

Manacles cut deep when they're too tight, <br />

You have to break the lock or find the key so you can defeat dem.<br />

Enslaved by the wickedest power, <br />

We're smashing up the cells and all the right ones gunna follow.<br />

Uprising - we need not the chains, <br />

And we aren't gunna make the same mistakes again.<br />

<br />

If you want it you got to rise and take it, <br />

You go to wake up you know you can't contain this.<br />

Stand for something! <br />

Or you'll fall for anything.<br />

<br />

If you want it you got to fight for it, <br />

Wake up you'll never contain it.<br />

Stand for something! <br />

Or you'll fall for anything.<br />

<br />

Wolves they creep, <br />

Out to take the sheep.<br />

The vulnerable, the easy led, the weak, <br />

Who will protect dem?<br />

<br />

Against the wall - now they execute.<br />

The blind can lead the blind, <br />

They always need someone to lead dem.<br />

<br />

Restrained by the evillest power.<br />

Captive of the chains because these things you've done are so'a.<br />

Not surprising - it's all done in vain, <br />

But you have gone and made the same mistake again<br />

<br />

If you want it you got to rise and take it, <br />

Got to wake up, you know you can't contain this.<br />

Stand for something! <br />

Or you'll fall for anything.<br />

<br />

If you want it you got to fight for it, <br />

Wake up you'll never contain it.<br />

Stand for something! <br />

Or you'll fall for anything.<br />

<br />

Caught in chains, <br />

Shackles on too tight.<br />

Squirming for your life, <br />

Because you've gone and lost your freedom.<br />

<br />

Manacles cut deep when they're too tight, <br />

You have to break the lock or find the key so you can defeat dem.<br />

Enslaved by the wickedest power, <br />

Enslaved by the wickedest power, <br />

Enslaved by the wickedest power, <br />

Enslaved by the wickedest... <br />

<br />

Everyday you live, you gotta fight, <br />

You got to stand your ground.<br />

If you want it you got to rise and take it, <br />

Got to wake up, you know you can't contain this.<br />

<br />

Stand for something! <br />

Or you'll fall for anything.<br />

If you want it you got to fight for it, <br />

Wake up you'll never contain it.<br />

<br />

Stand for something! <br />

Or you'll fall for anything.<br />

Stand for something! <br />

Or you'll fall for anything.<br />

<br />

If you don't stand for something, <br />

You'll fall for anything...
