Hoow.
Do do,
Do do,

Everyone'll try to put you down.
Everyone'll try to tell you no.
If you've got a dream inside,
You're the only one who can know.

Don't let nobody own ya.
Just say "One day I'll show ya."
Revenge'll sure feel nice,
If inside you've paid the price.

(You know it),   And you've gotta stand your ground.
(You've earned it),   And no one can cut you down.
They'll try to get what they can.
When you're strong - everyone's your friend.
Guard the jewel you've found,
You've gotta stand your ground.

Do do,
Do do.

Come on everybody clap your hands.
Doesn't it feel good to take a stand?
Music is my only release,
Gotta fight for peace,
Fight for the beat.

Whether you want for yourself or for others,
(Stand up),   For your sisters and brothers.
Just do what you wanna do,
No one can say what's right for you.

(You know it),   And you've gotta stand your ground.
(You've earned it),   And no one can cut you down.
They'll try to get what they can.
When you're strong - everyone's your friend.
Guard the jewel you've found,
You've gotta stand your ground.

I know you feel helpless on your own,
Swallow your pride - don't you go it alone.
Don't you run away from what is right,
Stand your ground - stay there and fight.
The only police are in your mind,
You gotta work now double time.
'Cause runnin' only lets 'em get the best of you,
So stand your ground,
Do watcha gotta do.

(You know it),   You will stand your ground,   (You will stand your ground).
(You've earned it),   No one can cut you down, down, down, down.
They'll try to get what they can.
When you're strong - everyone's your friend.
Guard the jewel you've found,

You've gotta,
(You know it),
Stand,   (Stand),   You've gotta stand ground.
You've gotta stand,   (Stand stand),
Yeah - stand your ground.
They'll try - they'll try - they'll try.
Guard the jewel you've found,
Listen up.

Stand your ground.
