paroles de chanson Make a Stand - J Brave

This song's dedicated, to Rosa Parks
Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King
Nelson Mandela
All the leaders who, stood up in a time of challenge and
Chose to make a stand

To the homies in jail that won't see the light
Like Nelson Mandela, you can change your life
I know you hate the war, but don't be a victim
We can all put our peace signs up like Lennon

When the system takes away your everything
You can walk the streets like Dr. King
You can choose to sing songs and play your part
Or make a small stand like Rosa Parks

L.A. skyline, kids in the ghetto
Try to make it out, dark days, no time for you to doubt
This is mind elevation, elation of the soul
This is high stimulation, check it

No need for reefer, we fight the fever
We plant the seeds, 'cause we need more leaders
We need the kids to grow and give back
Overcome the trap, become the teachers

Each one teach one, the sun keeps shining
Alignment, line up your chakras
Burn sage for the elders
Yearn for a better day, like a fortune teller

Get up, earn every penny, learn for the many
Turn the other cheek if you wanna help the meek
You gotta be a shepherd if you want to lead the sheep
Peace only comes when we recognize we are one

Stand tall, never back down from your true self
If you're fed up, get up
Find a new way for the kids to live
Only you can build that bridge

To the homies in jail that won't see the light
Like Nelson Mandela, you can change your life
I know you hate the war, but don't be a victim
We can all put our peace signs up like Lennon

When the system takes away your everything
You can walk the streets like Dr. King
You can choose to sing songs and play your part
Or make a small stand like Rosa Parks

The water's rising and the people lookin' for a change
Gas prices got me searchin' for a better way
The pollution in the city's got me feelin' blind
I'm takin' trips to Topenga to clear my mind

Every weekend slippin' off the deep end
Seepin' through my veins is the courage of a martyr
Nothing compares since I became a father
Reclaimed the game and gained a little knowledge

I'm given homage to the Most, stayin' by the coast
Prayin' everyday to expose what I wrote
Let the world see it, I can be it
I believe that I attract everything, like the secret

Non-violence, Gandhi was a prophet
In a world where the people only wanna make a profit
Whatever it takes to embrace, create faith
Patience is a virtue, but don't wait too late

Don't wait too long, the strong cannot disarm our rights
I am the light, my life within the song
Stand tall for yourself and others
Be a steward of the earth, embrace the Mother

To the homies in jail that won't see the light
Like Nelson Mandela, you can change your life
I know you hate the war, but don't be a victim
We can all put our peace signs up like Lennon

When the system takes away your everything
You can walk the streets like Dr. King
You can choose to sing songs and play your part
Or make a small stand like Rosa Parks

Make a small stand like Rosa parks
Make a small stand like Rosa parks
Make a small stand, make a small stand
Make a small stand like Rosa parks

Make a small stand like Rosa parks
Make a small stand like Rosa parks
Make a small stand, make a small stand
Make a small stand

To the homies in jail that won't see the light
You can change your life
We're playin' heroes and villains
We can all put our peace sign up like Lennon

When the system takes away your everything
Walk the streets like Dr. King
Choose to sing songs and play your part
Or make a small stand like Rosa Parks
