Stand (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Stand in the place where you live
Now face North
Think about direction
Wonder why you haven’t before
Now stand in the place where you work
Now face West
Think about the place where you live
Wonder why you haven’t before

If you are confused check with the sun
Carry a compass to help you along
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around

(repeat 1st verse)

Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around
If wishes were trees the trees would be falling
Listen to reason
Season is calling

(repeat 1st verse)

If wishes were trees the trees would be falling
Listen to reason
Reason is calling
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around

So Stand (stand)
Now face North
Think about direction, wonder why you haven’t before
Now stand (stand)
Now face West
Think about the place where you live
Wonder why you haven’t

(repeat 1st verse)

Stand in the place where you are (Now face North)
Stand in the place where you are (Now face West)
Your feet are going to be on the ground (Stand in the place where you are)
Your head is there to move you around, so stand.

Stand (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

We all carry the cross and speak what we’re taught
Lies and money become the white man’s god
We’ve burned all our bridges one too many times
The time has come now to draw the line

Chorus:
You know you’ve got to
Stand, stand, stand for what you believe
You know you’ve got to
Stand, stand, stand for what you believe
Ohh, you got to…stand for what you believe

Alright, alright
You got to listen now…
Express yourself in the face of change
Repress yourself, you surely seal your fate
You got to look inside, the answer lies in wait
Resurrect before it’s too late

Chorus

Somebody rescue me, come down and rescue me
I know the soul of a good man has got to be free
When you stand, stand for what you believe

Solo, repeat chorus

walk in a corner shop
see a shop lifting cop
see the old lady with a gun
see the hero try to run
nothings what it seems i mean
its not all dirty but its not all clean
theres children paying bills
theres monks buyin thrills
threres brad for sale in magizine
theres pills for rent to make you clean
marvin good theres no brother brother
wood a guthrea lent cant feed mother

mothers weep, children sleep
so much violence ends in silence
its a shame theres no-one to blame for
all the pain
that life
brings
if you will just take me it might just
complete me
then together we can make a stand

a waitress brings me lunch
we meet but do not touch
on tv this is how lungs
walk to the counter pay for me and my friend
an homeless manpulls outm of rules says
it’s on him
the man has no cash he says he spent it
on hookers and hash

mothers weep children sleep
soo much violence ends in silence
its a shame theres no-one to blame for
all the pain
that life
brings
if you will just take me it might just
complete me
then together we can make a stand

we will love me
i will love you
you will love me
i will love you
i will love you

mothers weep children sleep
soo much violence ends in silence
its a shame theres no-one to blame for
all the pain
that life
brings
if you will just take me it might just
complete me
then together we can make a stand

mothers weep willchildren sleep
soo much violence ends in silence
its a shame theres no-one to blame for
all the pain
that life
brings
if you will just take me it might just
complete me
then together we can make a stand

mothers weep children sleep
soo much violence ends in silence
its a shame theres no-one to blame for
all the pain
that life
brings
if you will just take me it might just
complete me
then together we can make a stand

Walk in a corner shop
See a shoplifting cop
See the greedy old lady with a gun
See the hero try 2 run
Nothing’s what it seems, I mean
It’s not all dirty, but it’s not all clean
There’s children paying bills
There’s monks buying thrills
There’s pride for sale in magazines
There’s pills for rent 2 make u clean
Marvin Gaye, there’s no brother, brother
Woody Guthrie’s land can’t feed Mother

[CHORUS]

Mothers weep, children sleep
So much violence ends in silence
It’s a shame there’s no one 2 blame
For all the pain that love brings
If u will just take me It might just complete me
And together we can make a stand

A waitress brings me lunch
We meet but do not touch
On TV, D.C. is selling lies
While in the corner, King’s dream dies
Go 2 the counter, pay for me and my friend
A homeless man pulls out a roll, says it’s on him
The mayor has no cash
He said he spent it on hookers and hash

[CHORUS]

U will love me, I will love u

[CHORUS]

Music & lyrics: john popper

Stand
Stand and walk
Tragedy
Is cheap and so is talk
Decision
Yours to make what will you do
In the end
It comes back to you
Cause it’s a long… way to fall

Thunder
Don’t scare me at all
Lightning
Well just a little
Pressure
It ain’t worth a dime
And your wounds
They’ll all heal in time

Cause it’s a long… way to fall

The answers are getting harder
The answers are getting harder
The answers are getting harder
(if an answer comes to those who pray)
The answers are getting harder
(if an answer comes to those who pray)
The answers are getting harder
(if an answer comes to those who pray)

The answers are getting harder and harder
And there ain’t no way to bargain or to barter
But if you’ve got the angst or the ardor
You might faint from the fight but you’re gonna find it
For every challenge could have paradise behind it
And if you accept what you have lost and you stand tall
You might just get it back and you can get it all
So now you know why it’s a long way to fall
Yeah cause it’s a long way to fall

Cause it’s a long… way to fall

(scat solo)

ad lib

i know i’m not the only one
to ever stand alone in the dark
not knowing how i’m gonna carry on
but sure i never will surrender

i know exactly who i am
and that there’s a purpose and a plan

chorus
so i will stand with my head held high
even though i’m against the wind
and i know i will survive
it is my destiny

with my held high
i won’t fall down
with my head held high
i won’t surrender

i believe that there’s a higher love
it’s given me the power
to find my way through the worst of times
turn them into my finest hour

and with this strength i will move on
no matter how nard i won’t fall down

chorus

in my life i make my own choices
paid the prices with my share of losses
but each time i only get stronger
and i know i’ve got the power inside

chorus

Stand! in the end you’ll still be you
One that’s done all the things you set out to do.
Stand! there’s a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you’re going anywhere.
(everybody say):
Stand! for the things you know are right.
It’s the truth that the truth makes them so uptight.
Stand! all the things you want are real.
You have you to complete and there is no deal.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah. oom bah bah bah oom bah bah bah
Stand! stand!
Huh! ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya
Stand! ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya .
Stand! they will try to make you crawl.
And they know what they’re saying makes no sense at all.
Stand! don’t you know that you are free?
Well, at least in your mind if you want to be.
(everybody say):
Huh! hah! ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya.
Huh! hah! ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya. (etc. to fade)
