Get up , stand up

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: dont give up the fight!

Preacherman, dont tell me,
Heaven is under the earth.
I know you dont know
What life is really worth.
Its not all that glitters is gold;
alf the story has never been told:
So now you see the light, eh!
Stand up for your rights. come on!

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: dont give up the fight!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: dont give up the fight!

Most people think,
Great God will come from the skies,
Take away everything
And make everybody feel high.
But if you know what life is worth,
You will look for yours on earth:
And now you see the light,
You stand up for your rights. jah!

Get up, stand up! (jah, jah!)
Stand up for your rights! (oh-hoo!)
Get up, stand up! (get up, stand up!)
Dont give up the fight! (life is your right!)
Get up, stand up! (so we cant give up the fight!)
Stand up for your rights! (lord, lord!)
Get up, stand up! (keep on struggling on!)
Dont give up the fight! (yeah!)

We sick an tired of-a your ism-skism game -
Dyin n goin to heaven in-a jesus name, lord.
We know when we understand:
Almighty God is a living man.
You can fool some people sometimes,
But you cant fool all the people all the time.
So now we see the light (what you gonna do? ),
We gonna stand up for our rights! (yeah, yeah, yeah!)

So you better:
Get up, stand up! (in the morning! git it up!)
Stand up for your rights! (stand up for our rights!)
Get up, stand up!
Dont give up the fight! (dont give it up, dont give it up!)
Get up, stand up! (get up, stand up!)
Stand up for your rights! (get up, stand up!)
Get up, stand up! ( ... )
Dont give up the fight! (get up, stand up!)
Get up, stand up! ( ... )
Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up!
Dont give up the fight! /fadeout/

Levantate, defiendete

Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, no abandones la lucha! 
Predicador no me digas 
Que el cielo esta bajo la tierra 
Se que tu no sabes 
Que la vida de verdad vale 
No todo lo que brilla es oro 
La mitad de la historia nunca lo dijo 
Y ahora ves la luz, eh! 
Defiende tus derechos, vamos! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, no abandones la lucha! 
La mayoria de la gente piensa 
Que el gran dios vendra del cielo 
Desapareciendo todo 
Y haciendolos sentir en las alturas 
Pero si sabes lo que vale la vida 
Tu buscaras a los tuyos en la tierra 
Y ahora ves la luz 
Defiende tus derechos! Jah 
Levantate, defiendete (Jah-Jah) 
Defiende tus derechos (ohh-hoo) 
Levantate, defiendete, (levantate, defiendete) 
No abandondes la lucha! (la vida es tu derecho!) 
Levantate, defiendete, (no podemos abandonar la lucha!) 
Defiende tus derechos (señor, señor) 
Levantate, defiendete (sigamos en la lucha!) 
No abandones la lucha (yeah!) 
Estamos enfermos y cansados de tu juego 
Muriendo en nombre de dios, señor 
Lo sabremos que cuando lo entendamos 
El Todopoderoso es un hombre vivo 
Puedes engañar a algunas personas a veces 
Pero no puedes engañar a toda la gente siempre 
Ahora vemos la luz (que haras?) 
Defenderemos nuestros derechos! (yeah, yeah yeah!) 
Asi que mejor.. 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, no abandones la lucha! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, defiende tus derechos! 
Levantate, defiendete, no abandones la lucha!
