Woah-oh
Woah-woah-woah-oh
Get up (Woah-oh)
Hey (Get up)
Preacher man, don't tell me
That Heaven is under the Earth
I know you don't know
What life is really worth
It's not all that glitters is gold
And half the story has never been told
And now you see the light (What you gon' do?)
Stand up for your rights
Come on, get up, stand up (Lord, God)
Stand up for your rights (Woah-oh)
Get up, stand up (Keep it coming on)
Don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up (Lord, God)
Keep it coming on, don't give up the fight
Sick and we're tired of ism-schism
Can't die and go to Heaven in Jesus' name, Lord
We know and we understand
Almighty God is a living man
You can fool some people sometimes
But you can't fool all the people all the time
'Cause now you see the light (What you gon' do?)
Stand up for your rights
Come on, get up, stand up (Lord, God)
Stand up for your rights (Woah-oh)
Get up, stand up
Keep it coming on, don't give up the fight
Preacher man, don't tell me
That Heaven is under the Earth
I know you don't know
What life is really worth
It's not all that glitters is gold
Half the story has never been told
'Cause now you see the light (What you gon' do?)
Stand up for your rights
Come on, get up, stand up (Lord, God)
Stand up for your rights (Yeah)
Get up, stand up
Keep it coming on, don't give up the fight
I said, we're sick and we're tired of the schism-schism
Can't die and go to Heaven in Jesus' name, Lord
We know and we understand
Almighty God is a living man
You can fool some people sometimes
But you can't fool all the people all the time
'Cause now you see the light (What you gon' do?)
Stand up for your rights
Come on, get up, stand up (Lord, God)
Stand up for your rights (Woah-oh)
Get up, stand up
Keep it coming on, don't give up the fight (No)
I said, you're running, and you're running, and you're running away
You're running and you're running
But you can't run away from yourself (Yourself)
Can't run away from yourself
Can't run away from yourself
Can't run away from yourself
No, can you run away from yourself?
Can you run away from yourself?
You must have done something wrong
Said you must have done (Said you must have done)
Something wrong (Something wrong)
Yeah, yeah
Why you can't find a place where you belong?
Belong (Well, well, well, well)
Nah-do, nah-do, nah-do, now
Nah-do, nah-do, nah-di, nah-do, now
Nah-do, nah-di, nah-di, nah-di, now
Nah-do, nah-di, nah-di, nah-di, now
Nah-di-bi-di, nah-do, nah-do, now
Well, then, then, then, then, then, you're running away
Oh, no, you're running away (Woo, woo)
You're running away (Don't say that)
You're running away
But I'd rather to live on the housetop
More than to live in a house full of confusion
Well, I make my decision
And who don't like it can bite it, because
I'm not running away (Don't say that)
No, I'm not running away (Woo, woo)
Preacher man, don't tell me
That Heaven is under the Earth (Under the Earth)
I know you don't know (Know)
What life is really worth (Really worth)
It's not all that glitters is gold
Half the story has never been told
Get up, stand up (Lord, God)
Stand up for your rights
