Stand Up Songtext
von Chali 2na

Ain′t got no mask on
Ain't tryna sing no fast song
Ain′t tryna get a feel from an ecstasy or viagra pill
Tryna make it last long, cast call
Got it bad, got a bad jaw like a very young Usher Freeman
Rush the game, bring the pain, never clown
Try to break it down just to touch the layman
Tell the people how to spell my name and
Make sure they get it right
Chali number two, not a U but an N and an A
I never play 'cause I did it right
I'm spittin′ with a legitimate quick wit
Critics admit it, my shit is tight
Some of y′all gon' run like a coward
But I′m gon' sit and spite


Stand up for what you believe in this evening
We don′t need no cowards, only we need men
No matter how it's told, hot or cold, day or night
Some of y′all gon' run like a coward but we gon' stay and spite
Stand up for what you believe in this evening
We don′t need no cowards, only we need men
No matter how it′s told, hot or cold, day or night
Some of y'all gon′ run like a coward but we gon' stay and spite
Stand up


You ain′t no head buster, shawty, you the headbuster
I'ma stay fit, verbal leverage, your shit
Don′t exist like a jar of red mustard
Never trust you cats who play it custard
Walk with pride but really soft inside
In front of your homies you talk loud
When I come on the set you get awfully quiet
I'ma take a walk and decide if I'ma let you off and slide
Or let the awful vibe you provide when
You talk put you in a coffin, right?
I survive ′cause I breathe underwater, people call me Aquaman
Easy bossin′ with a little bit of
Greasy hustle like I own the taco stand
Treat a rapper like a nacho, man
Everybody covered in melted cheese
When the lights out hip-hop is so iced out
The wealthy emcees have helped it to freeze
Like a disease with no scruples
Emptied like a school with no pupils
Never think I'm a fool, I′m tryna make sure
The lawyers say contract cool with no loopholes
Ain't nobody here to judge you today
Put the nonsense and the bullshit away
Get a good grip on the day and never stray
Up in the morn′ before dawn when I pray, I say no matter
How they done told you, hot or cold, day or night
Some of y'all gon′ run like a coward but we gon' stay and spite

Stand up for what you believe in this evening
We don't need no cowards, only we need men
No matter how it′s told, hot or cold, day or night
Some of y′all gon' run like a coward but we gon′ stay and spite
Stand up for what you believe in this evening
We don't need no cowards, only we need men
No matter how it′s told, hot or cold, day or night
Some of y'all gon′ run like a coward but we gon' stay and spite
Stand up

The undisputed kings, ruling by undiluted means
No Judas foolishness when you move with clueless human beings
This ain't no movie scene, Cristal, Patrón and curvy strippers
Kept swervin′ the hump and make the
Whole party bump just like dirty clippers
I′m not a nerd, I'm vicious, y′all fictitious, I'm infectious
I′m comin' with a so-called all-
Inclusive style, I′m callin' it precious
Breakin' it down in sections and flexin′ my walk and tools that lie
Some of y′all gon' run like a coward but we was born to fight

Stand up for what you believe in this evening
We don′t need no cowards, only we need men
No matter how it's told, hot or cold, day or night
Some of y′all gon' run like a coward but we gon′ stay and spite
Stand up for what you believe in this evening
We don't need no cowards, only we need men
No matter how it's told, hot or cold, day or night
Some of y′all gon′ run like a coward but we gon' stay and spite
Stand up
