The only reason why I even mention hip-hop is I was listening to Public Enemy as I wrote these lyrics. Trump is really beginning to piss me off.
Stand Tall
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
Please give credit if you produce or perform
fight on your feet
fight on your feet
fight on your feet
stand tall
you don’t have to preach
innocents are dying on the beach
we’re living in 1984
that’s the score
fight on your feet
fight on your feet
fight on your feet
not live as a slave
but let me state
I won’t be the man’s slave
that has time come and gone
so given the choice by the orange man
between living on my knees
or dying on me feet
I know what my choice will be
I can tell you for sure
I know where I stand
that choice is easy as pie
I know how I want to die
join me
fight on your feet
fight on your feet
fight on your feet
not live as a slave
(bridge)
black, brown or gay
they want to keep us on our knees
but the only please I believe is
that one day it will be seen
that we fight with all our might
on our feet
when given the opportunity
stand tall
stand tall
stand tall
fight on your feet
fight on your feet
fight on your feet
not live as a slave
