Stand Up Songtext
von Eric Gales

Can′t you understand? My dilemma
I'm a man the same as you
I walk the same lines, suffered all the wounds
45 years of putting up with you
I just don′t know
And I ain't got a clue

Somebody's gotta stand up
Wake up
Rise up
Stand up to you


I just want to start, with my situation
I′ve been seen as cruel and unkind
I′m here to tell you they got it all wrong
People try to treat me
Like I don't belong
I don′t know why
You treat me like you do

I just want respect
I don't want a hand out
Do you see me? Like I see you
You don′t know me
You don't know a thing
But you tell me to just shut up and sing
You just don′t know
And you don't got a clue
