Get Up, Stand Up! Songtext
von Zeroscape

Greetings in the name of the most high
Jah!
The creator of all living things

Preacher man don′t tell me
Heaven is under the Earth
I know you don't know
What life is really worth
Is it all that glitters is gold
Half of this story has never been told
But now you see the light
Stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up
Don′t give up the fight
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Stand up, stand up, stand up, stand up
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Stand up


Most people think
Jah Jah a go come from the sky
And take-a everything
And make-a everybody feel high
But if you look for yours on Earth
Then you will see what life is worth
And now you see the light
Dreadlocks, stand up for your rights
A chiki, yeah

Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Stand up, stand up, stand up, stand up
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Stand up

Me sick and tired of the ism-skism
We can die and go to Heaven in-a Jesus' name, yo
We walk it over, we understand
A mighty Jah Jah is a living man
You can fool some people sometimes
But you can′t fool all the people all the time
And now you see the light
So stand up for your rights


Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up
Don′t give up the fight
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Stand up, stand up, stand up, stand up
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Stand up
