Stand Up-Chris Webby

Lately I've been contemplating Watching humans tear apart this f**king planet Like they've never heard of moderation The people running things ain't worried bout no conservation Unless there's money in the conversation But what happens when the soil is too toxic for the plants to grow And all our drinking water is polluted (got the answer bro?) All I know is humans are the cancer of the planet Forecast: lots of global warming with a chance of snow Hoping things will change but I doubt they ever will Mother nature dying while we yelling drill, baby drill So in turn the world's heating up, climate change creeping up Hell, at least those folks at Exxon made a decent buck Carbon footprints on the world that'll never wash away While the ones in charge of it ignoring what we got to say Still we gotta try, all we got is you and I Put your mother f**king fists in the sky, come and Stand up, stand up, if you gonna fight for what you believe Stand up, stand up, if you ain't falling for what they teaching Stand up, stand up, if any time your back's up against the wall Stand up, stand up, take away my freedom, you'll give me the reason to stand up! I don't dabble much in things that are political But it ain't hard to see That half these politicians running sh*t are criminal They way we written history is strictly fictitiously Still they try tricking me, telling me that I'm living free Now keeping quiet while they take away our freedoms (Hell, they're just the constitutional laws, who f**kin' needs em?) And the mainstream media decides what you'll be seeing So I'm sceptical of everything, don't know what to believe in 'Cause they lying to us right under our noses And we know it but there's nothing we can do to control it And it's got me losing sleep 'Cause I'm seeing sh*t different than when I was younger Watching world hunger while the economy's going under Too caught up in reality shows and cell phones Eatin' food full of GMO's to say Yo! I've had enough of all these lies, all we got is you and I Put your f**king fists up in the sky, come and Stand up, stand up, if you gonna fight for what you believe Stand up, stand up, if you ain't falling for what they teaching Stand up, stand up, if any time your back's up against the wall Stand up, stand up, take away my freedom, you'll give me the reason to stand up!
