lyrics

We've been torn down
We've been beaten around
Fought for our own and for what we've known
But we lost the crown.
Try to push back, but
Couldn't make a sound
Feel like we can't make a difference
In this god damn town. So we got to

Stand up strong
Fight the battle and it won't be too long
Before the wave starts crashing and we chant our songs
Of victory overpowering the wrong.

Stand up true
Listen to each other and we just might make it through
Gotta try to unify, reach for the sky,
There's a whole new wave and it's coming soon.

Stand up strong
We gotta
Stand up strong
The war ain't over yet so just
Stand up strong
We gotta
Stand up strong
The war ain't over yet so just
Stand up strong

It won't be long
Now the times passin' as we sing this song
And the powers that be are crumblin
And the truth is coming out on
Every day, wake up to more pain comin' our way
But the tides are shiftin'
And the fog is liftin'
And the power's siftin'
So let's stand up

Stand up strong
Fight the battle and it won't be too long
Before the wave starts crashing and we chant our songs
Of victory overpowering the wrong.

Stand up true
Listen to each other and we just might make it through
Gotta try to unify, reach for the sky,
There's a whole new wave and it's coming soon.

Stand up strong
We gotta
Stand up strong
The war ain't over yet so just
Stand up strong
We gotta
Stand up strong
The war ain't over yet so just
Stand up strong
