Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up

Don't give up the fight

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up

Don't give up the fight

You, preacher man don't tell me

Heaven is under the earth

You a duppy and you don't know

What life is really worth

It's not all that glitter is gold

And half the story has never been told

So now we see the light

We gonna stand up for our rights

Come on

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up

Don't give up the fight

'Cause you know most people think

A great God will come from the skies

Take away everything

And left everybody dry

But if you know what life is worth

Then you would look for yours on earth

And now you see the light

We gonna stand up for our rights

Get up, stand up

Stand up for your rights

Get up, stand up

Don't give up the fight

We're sick and tired of this game of technology

Humbly asking Jesus for his mercy

We know and we know and understand

Almighty Jah is a living man

You fool some people sometimes

But you can't fool all the people all the time

And now we see the light

We gonna stand up for our rights
