Get Up Stand Up (feat. U-Roy)

You have to defend your rights, y'all

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

Even when I seen ya

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

Each and every time

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

And rebirth

Get up, stand up

Don't give up the fight

Don't you fuss, no fight

Preacher man, don't tell me

Heaven is under the Earth

I know you don't know

What life is really worth

Is not all that glitters is gold

Half the story has never been told

So now you see the light

You stand up for your right

Tell them chickens

Get up, stand up

Every time I hope you stand up and unite

Get up, stand up

And don't give up the fight

I will continue

Ain't no fussing, ain't no fight

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

And you no hear me

Get up, stand up

Just be talking to ya

Don't give up the fight

Come on and come here

Most people think

Great god will come from the sky

Take away everything

And make everybody feel  high

Can you just imagine that?

But if you know what life is worth

You would look for yours on Earth

And now you see the light

You stand up for your right, come on

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your right

You hear me, people?

Get up, stand up

Shiny people

Don't give up the fight

When I say no Africans should never fuss nor fight

Got no way to Babylon them planet

No way we could ever unite

Yeah, it's just another way to overthrow the black people world

Cause I was saying

They don't understand

Yes, we got to chill the blind, unite

And stand up for we rights

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

You no hear me?

Get up, stand up

Don't give up the fight

Here's what I got to say

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up

Don't give up the fight

Some fight for diamonds and pearls

Some fight for gold and with silver

Some fight for land and some fight for iron

That man has just got to understand the plan

Stand up and unite

But don't give up the fight

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up

Don't give up the fight
