LYRICS

GET UP, STAND UP (CHORUS) Get up, stand up Stand up for your rights Get up, stand up Don't give up the fight (2x) You, preacher man don't tell me Heaven is under the earth You a duppy and you don't know What life is really worth It's not all that glitter is gold And half the story has never been told So now we see the light We gonna stand up for your rights Come on CHORUS Cause you know most people think A great God will come from the skies Take away everything And left everybody dry But if you know what life is worth Then you would look for yours on earth And now you see the light We gonna stand up for your rights CHORUS We're sick and tired of this game of technology Humbly asking Jesus for his mercy We know and we know and understand Almighty Jah is a living man You fool some people sometimes But you can't fool all the people all the time And now we see the light We gonna stand up for our rights
