OOOoo hoO hOoo Uhhh I know its clich to say everyday be positive, Lifes filled with obstacles and broken promises, When the sun dont shine your battling time, On the search to find answers that you never find, Sometimes... you feel like giving up, Throw your hands to the sky cos youre so fed up, Sometimes... you truly lose your hope Trying to find an escape so you drink and smoke Then the next day comes and it doesnt get better Our generations lost, n we needa go get her So many of us got folks that don't get us It's not the same as it was, their mentality's stuck In their old ways, but it's not the same In the past 20 years things have really changed, Weve lost our sense of hope; n lost our sense of pride I wanna change the way I think, at least Im going to try. Stand up for what you believe in, dont be afraid [Dont you be afraid] It aint easy, to have hope when youre always broke But you know youve gotta keep, keeping on just the same My baby... Its a hope a sense of air the breeze around the world, Trina t latch on to somethin like riches and pearls, Tryin to find a sense of purpose in material things, Distracted from yourself when your cell phone rings, Hey I understand how it feels, how life can be so hard to deal with, Hey, Ive been down that road, searching for direction with no path to follow, You cant just go to college and get a degree, Fo sure itd make enough to support your family Were an angry generation littered by the situation Weapons too accessible to take out of frustration With violence involved, guns resolve Minor disputes in schools bathroom stalls Im not sure how to process all the thoughts I have I know times are tough but its not all bad Come on Stand up for what you believe in [Youve gotta believe], dont be afraid [Dont you be afraid] It aint easy, to have hope when youre always broke But you know youve gotta keep, keeping on just the same My baby... Its up to us yall Our generation is way too complacent; We have a war going on, And so many of us are not free Its time for us to make a stand And come together N dont just talk revolution, act revolution, Stand up, come on. Stand up for what you believe in, dont be afraid [Dont you be afraid] It aint easy [It might not be easy baby], To have hope when youre always broke [But you gotta have some hope] But you know youve gotta keep, keeping on just the same My baby... Stand up for what you believe in, dont be afraid [Dont you be afraid] It aint easy, to have hope when youre always broke But you know youve gotta keep, keeping on just the same My baby... Stand up for something, no matter what it is, What youre unhappy with Change your path, Change your life, Yeah, We deserve equality, come on.
