"Stand For Something" lyrics

What the fuck is up, Deadkru
I am here
To let you know
That this world
Is yours for the taking
So let me see you run it

Growing up no one gave us anything
Hand to mouth struggling just to make ends meet
Two jobs only making two hundred a week
It's time to let us speak

Cause we can have whatever we want
Yeah we can have whatever we want

You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming

You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming

Have you had enough
Are you fed up
Are you one of us
We pick each other up
Find within yourself whatever power you hold dear
The strength to make somebody else
Survive the weight that pushed you here

Cause we can have whatever we want
Yeah we can have whatever we want

You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming

You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming

We are the few
We'll get what's due
Always come through
Deadkru fuck you

You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming

You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming

You say you wanna stand for something
Empty words mean nothing
Do you know the tide is turning
Can you feel the riot coming
