Sly & The Family Stone - Stand! lyrics

rate me

Stand, in the end, you'll still be you

One that's done all the things you set out to do

Stand, there's a cross for you to bear

Things to go through if you're goin' anywhere

Stand for the things you know are right

It's the truth that the truth makes them so uptight

Stand, all the things you want are real

You have you to complete and there is no deal

Stand, stand, stand

(Everybody, yeah)

Stand, stand, stand

Stand, you've been sitting much too long

There's a permanent crease in your right and wrong

Stand, there's a midget standing tall

And a giant beside him about to fall

Stand, stand, stand

Stand, stand, stand

Stand, they will try to make you crawl

And they know what you're sayin' makes sense at all

Stand, don't you know that you are free

Well, at least in your mind if you want to be

Everybody

Stand, stand

Stand

Na na na na na na na na na na

Stand

Na na na na na na na na na na

Stand

Na na na na na na na na na na

Stand

Na na na na na na na na na na

Stand

Na na na na na na na na na na
