"This song was written about oppression and the nerve you have to build up to finally stand up for yourself, your goals and your beliefs. With the recent Orlando tragedy devastating the LGBT community as well as the place we call home, we wish to dedicate this video to those who lost their lives as well as those who have had their lives changed forever. We want to stand up with you against oppression and continue the fight for love."- Guitarist Rob Walden
I'm spreading this around after Rise Records' unprofessional behavior and awful treatment and silencing of these guys. Anyone who wants to help, just download it and reupload so people can see it in case mine gets taken down.
---Lyrics---
[Stand up, stand up, what are you waiting for?
This is everything you wanted
Get up, listen up, I got something to say
You said you'd make it anyway] [2x]
This is what you've been waiting for
Here's your chance to form your legacy
Here's your chance to engrave your memory
This is what you've been dreaming of
Take a breath, close your eyes and dive in
Take a breath, close your eyes and dive in
From the beginning we are destined for a higher cause
Our minds expanded how we planned it then we wrote the laws
Now it's come to a decision and we're drawing straws
Want to make our own conditions we're technicians though we're flawed
Stand up stand up, it's what you're waiting for
This is everything you wanted, there is nothing more
Get up listen up, I got something to say
You said you'd make it anyway
This is what you've been waiting for
Here's your chance to form your legacy
Here's your chance to engrave your memory
This is what you've been dreaming of
Take a breath, close your eyes and dive in
Take a breath, close your eyes and dive in
Stand up stand up, it's what you're waiting for
This is everything you wanted
Get up listen up, I got something to say
You said you'd make it anyway
From the place you least expect I decide the fate of millions
I am the anomaly
From the beginning we were destined for a higher cause
Our minds expanded how we planned it then we wrote the laws
Now it's come to a decision and we're drawing straws
Want to make our own conditions we're technicians though we're flawed
Stand up stand up, it's what you're waiting for
This is everything you wanted
Get up listen up, I got something to say
You said you'd make it anyway
This is what you've been waiting for
Here's your chance to form your legacy
Here's your chance to engrave your memory
This is what you've been dreaming of
Take a breath, close your eyes and dive in
Take a breath, close your eyes and dive in
