I know. No one had ever dreamed that
We were this strong and we'd achieve this.
So long the doubt and all believed it
And now it's come for all to see, yeah.
We've worked so hard
Pushed every day now
See the blood, sweat, and tears on our face?
We've never been stronger
There's no holding back now
So you can hear us say
Stand up. Stand up, we were right.
You know we can't be more justified, and they can't deny it.
Stand up. Stand up, we were right.
We've come too far just to fade away, and they can't deny it.
I've heard the words those in the circle say.
"So what? They're done. It don't matter anyway"
Well, here's your proof: they're all silent today.
And there's no way they can take it away.
We've worked so hard
Pushed every day now
See the blood, sweat, and tears on our face?
We've never been stronger
There's no holding back now
So you can hear us say
Stand up. Stand up, we were right.
You know we can't be more justified, and they can't deny it.
Stand up. Stand up, we were right.
We've come too far just to fade away, and they can't deny it.
We never said it was easy. And no one gave us a thing.
Now that last part is so pleasing. But we're stronger than you think!
Stand up. Stand up, we were right.
You know we can't be more justified, and they can't deny it.
Stand up. Stand up, we were right.
We've come too far just to fade away, and they can't deny it.
Stand up. Stand up for your right (and they can't deny it)
Stand up. Stand up for your right!
