You can stand to the side
Or you stand up and fight
You can watch from the wings
Or you can show them your might
It’s a choice that you make
When you lay up at night
It’s your voice they can’t take
When you go do what is right
[chorus] Real, real, you were born to be real
You were born to it
You were born to be real
It’s your soul that they steal
When you don’t do what is real
It’s not a time for to kneel
Stand up and be real
Stand up and be real
Over and over, the other side wins
Colder and colder the forces close in
There’s a child who waits for you
It may be the child who you know
That child won’t ignore you
No matter which way you go
[bridge] Stand up! Stand up!
Stand up! Go on and stand up
[chorus]
You may be a woman
You may be a man
You may not have the power
And only do what you can
But you can see yourself fly
When the time comes to you
It’s your will that they try
When your heart you keep true
[chorus]
Sing it!!
