Текст песни Stand for Something - Skindred

Caught in chains, shackles on too tight
Squirming for your life
Because you've gone and lost your freedom
Manacles cut deep when they're too tight
You have to break the lock or find the key, so you can defeat them
Enslaved by the wickedest power
We're smashing up the cells and all the right ones gonna follow
Uprising, we need not the chains, and we aren't gonna make the same mistakes again

If you want it, you got to rise and take it
You got to wake up, you know you can't contain this
Stand for something, or you'll fall for anything
If you want it, you got to fight for it
Wake up, you'll never contain it
Stand for something, or you'll fall for anything

Wolves, they creep out to take the sheep
The vulnerable, the easy led, the weak
Who will protect them?
Against the wall, now they execute
The blind can lead the blind
They always need someone to lead them

Restrained by the evilest power
Captive of the chains because these things you've done are sour
Not surprising, it's all done in vain
But you have gone and made the same mistake again

If you want it, you got to rise and take it
Got to wake up, you know you can't contain this
Stand for something, or you'll fall for anything
If you want it, you got to fight for it
Wake up, you'll never contain it
Stand for something, or you'll fall for anything, no

Caught in chains, shackles on too tight
Squirming for your life
Because you've gone and lost your freedom
Manacles, cut deep when they're too tight
You have to break the lock or find the key, so you can defeat them
Enslaved by the wickedest power, enslaved by the wickedest power
Enslaved by the wickedest power, enslaved by the wickedest
Every day, you live, you gotta fight
You got to stand your ground

If you want it, you got to rise and take it
Got to wake up, you know you can't contain this
Stand for something, or you'll fall for anything
If you want it, you got to fight for it
Wake up, you'll never contain it
Stand for something, or you'll fall for anything
Stand for something, or you'll fall for anything

If you don't stand for something
You'll fall for anything
