I woke up with a hole in my head, I looked up and I thought I was dead. The secret's out, but there's nobody there, They're all asleep, or they're living in fear. Me, I got no time for that lying machine, Won't put my faith in their phony vaccine, They've shut us down, don't ya see what I see? They're taking down a world that used to be free. I spoke out and it made me feel good, I looked out on a world full of fools. The TV's on, but there's nobody there, They're all a part of this agenda of fear. Me, I got no time for their lying machine, Gonna put my faith in my guitar and my dreams. They've shut us down, no more Rock 'n Roll scene, No opposition from the man on the streets. Stand Up! If you wanna live free They're coming after you, and they're coming for me Push Back! Or you'll lose everything, They wanna take control of everyone, and everything. Yeah, Yeah... Yeah I choked up when they blinded the weak, I spoke up for the ones who can't speak. I'll stand proud with my brothers in arms, Don't need no guns, when ya got electric guitars Me, I got no time, for that lying regime, When they point that gun, ain't gonna roll up my sleeve Can't shut me down, Cause I truly believe These human rights cannot be taken from me! Stand Up! If you wanna live free They're coming after you, and they're coming for me Push back! Or you'll lose everything, They want control of everyone, and everything. Stand Up! If you wanna live free They're coming after you, and they're coming for me Push Back! Or you'll lose everything, They wanna take control of everyone, and everything. Yeah, Yeah... Yeah Me, I got no time for political scenes, Won't put my faith in their controlling regime, They're taking down a world that wants to be free, With the greatest crime against Humanity! Stand Up! If you wanna live free They're coming after you, and they're coming for me Push Back! Or you'll lose everything, They wanna take control of everyone, and everything. Stand Up! If you wanna live free They're coming for YOU, and they're coming for me Push Back! Or you'll lose everything, They wanna take control of everyone, and everything. Stand Up! DON'T YOU WANNA BE FREE?! They're coming after you, and they're coming for me Rise Up! Or you'll lose everything, Don't let them take control of everyone, and everything. Yeah, Yeah... Yeah Ahh! copyright 2021 - Joe Normal (The Hutchinson Library / ascap)

Difference of opinion, Hate and opposition, Doesn't make much sense to me. But too much indecision, and you'll Lose sight of your vision, You got to proceed carefully. Ya gotta SUCK IT UP, you got to STICK IT OUT Ya gotta LET YOUR STORY UNFOLD, Ya gotta TOUGHEN UP, you got to SHOUT IT ALOUD That you'll NEVER SURRENDER CONTROL Cos, This is your life, and your destiny's calling! Yeah, This is your life, and your destiny's calling! Well if you want to make it, Sometimes you got to fake it, But never give up on your song No matter what is happenin, You got to keep on laughin' You got to show the world that you're strong Ya gotta TOUGHEN UP, ya gotta SPEAK YOUR TRUTH, Ya gotta NEVER LET THEM GET YOU DOWN It's gonna PISS THEM OFF, yeah, but DON'T IT FEEL GOOD TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVE STOOD YOUR GROUND. Cos, This is your life, and your destiny's calling! Yeah, This is your life, and your destiny's calling! Don't Give Up Yet, because your story ain't over, Don't give up Hope, cos you're a little bit older, You gotta stay strong, Hold on a little bit longer, Cos when it's your life, you gotta answer the call! Cos, This is your life, and destiny's calling! Can't ya hear it!? Ya gotta SUCK IT UP, you got to STICK IT OUT Ya gotta LET YOUR STORY UNFOLD, Ya gotta TOUGHEN UP, you got to SHOUT IT ALOUD That you'll NEVER SURRENDER YOUR SOUL! Cos, This is your life, and your destiny's calling! Yeah, This is your life, and your destiny's calling! (Oh Danny Boy, them pipes are calling!)

about

As millions worldwide are taking to the streets to march for Human Rights and Freedom, I offer you "STAND UP!," a song that embodies the sentiment of countless kindred spirits who are passionate about our rights and hungry for a fresh new voice from the Rock 'n Roll world to sound the charge.

Followers of independent alternative media who are familiar with The Corbett Report and New World Next Week will be familiar with James Evan Pilato at MEDIA MONARCHY who claims that "Stand Up!" is "An anthem for Humanity in its time of need."

Backed with "This Is Your Life (And Your Destiny's Calling)" let these two songs of self-empowerment motivate you to get you up off your computer and out into the real world where your voice needs to be heard...

"Ya gotta stay strong, hold on a little bit longer!"

Stay Normal.
