Skank... skank... bass roll... Whoa-oh... Yeah yeah... People rise to end the lies...
Stand up now! — (Stand up now!) No kings, no crown! — (No kings, no crown!) Stand up now! — (Stand up now!) We won't bow down! Stand up now! — (Stand up now!) Truth coming round! — (Truth coming round!) Stand up now! Stand your ground!
They talk loud on the TV screen, Selling fear like gasoline. Big smile bright, behind the scene, Power hungry, cold and mean. Say "law and order", lock the gate, Blame the poor, divide the state. While we argue, filled with hate, They stack the cards and seal the fate.
You can't build peace with lies, You can't lead with disguise, When the pressure rise — The people open eyes.
Stand up now! — (Stand up now!) No kings, no crown! — (No kings, no crown!) Stand up now! — (Stand up now!) We won't bow down! Stand up now! — (Stand up now!) Truth coming round! — (Truth coming round!) Stand up now! Stand your ground!
Secrets locked in metal drawers, Closed court deals behind the doors. Change the rules, rewrite the laws, Call it strength — but no applause. Uniform march down the street, Heavy boots on concrete beat. Fear and power often meet, But love and truth don't face defeat.
You can twist words tight, Turn day into night, But wrong ain't right — When the people unite.
Stand up now! — (Stand up now!) No kings, no crown! Stand up now! We won't bow down! Stand up now! Hear that sound! Stand up now! Stand your ground!
History talk when we listen close, Old ghost warn, we know how it goes. When one man try control the throne, That's not strength — that's fear alone.
Stand up now! No kings, no crown! Stand up now! We won't bow down! Stand up now! Truth coming round! Stand up now! Stand your ground!
Yeah yeah... Stand up now... People power and we vow...
