Lyrics

Verse 1

Stone walls rising tall

Bending every backbone until it starts to snap

Locked doors

Shackles made of laws and bitter silence

Pre-Chorus

They count the money

They hide the truth

They build a cage around our youth

Chorus

Stand up

Brother you got to stand up

Sister you got to stand up

Tear the crown right off the liar

Fuel the spark and build a fire

Stand up

You got to stand up

No more bowing down in the mud

Verse 2

Hungry eyes watching plate after golden plate go by

Hollow chests

Heavy fists shaking at the towers in the clouds

Cold rain

Washing out the tracks where we all bled

Pre-Chorus

They count the money

They hide the truth

They build a cage around our youth

Chorus

Stand up

Brother you got to stand up

Sister you got to stand up

Tear the crown right off the liar

Fuel the spark and build a fire

Stand up

You got to stand up

No more bowing down in the mud

Bridge

Crush the boot

Break the grip

Shatter the whip

We are the ghost in your machine

We are the grit inside the gear

We are the name you live to fear

Look at us

Look at us

Look at us

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Stand up

Brother you got to stand up

Sister you got to stand up

Tear the crown right off the liar

Fuel the spark and build a fire

Stand up

You got to stand up

No more bowing down in the mud

Chorus

Stand up

Brother you got to stand up

Sister you got to stand up

Tear the crown right off the liar

Fuel the spark and build a fire

Stand up

You got to stand up

No more bowing down in the mud

Verse 3

System crash

Feeding on the marrow of the working class

Broken glass

Scattered on the sidewalk while they toast the rich

Wicked switch

Flip it til the current runs across the grain

Holy pain

Writing out the contract in a crimson stain

Pre-Chorus

They hide the records

They spin the news

They pick the victims they can use

Chorus

Stand up

Brother you got to stand up

Sister you got to stand up

Tear the crown right off the liar

Fuel the spark and build a fire

Stand up

You got to stand up

No more bowing down in the mud

Bridge 2

The high rise is trembling

The guards are all dissembling

We see the crack within the vault

This ruin is your own damn fault

Pull the lever

Cut the cord

Strike the table

Sheath the sword

We aren't begging anymore

We're knocking down the master's door

Guitar Solo

Drum Solo

Outro

Stand up

(Get on your feet)

Stand up

(Take back the street)

Stand up

No more bowing down

No more crawling round

We won't go quietly

Into your sick society

Rise up

Rise up

Rise

The walls are coming down

Down

Down

The crown is in the mud

Stand up

Stand up

Stand up

Done with the waiting

Done with the hating

Stand

Up!
