Stand Up / Garou

 


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 
Chorus : 
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 
Cos 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 
Chorus: 
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
