Stand - Joy Denalane

I’ve lived a life of second chances

But never learning from the first, no

I couldn’t run, searching for answers

But that would only make it worse

Nothing worth having ever comes easily

And now I see

That you gotta stand (stand)

And fight for the things you love, yeah-yeah

You better understand (stand)

You never run fast enough, no-no, no-no

Some things are gone forever

Once they pass you by

It’s plain to see that

Right here, right now

Is do or die

Years of running round in circles

With no place to call my own, whoa-whoa

If what we don’t know never hurts us, tell me

Why did I feel so all along?

Nothing worth having ever comes easily

And now I see

That you gotta stand (stand)

And fight for the things you love, yeah-yeah

You better understand (stand)

You never run fast enough, no-no, no-no

Some things are gone forever

Once they pass you by

It’s plain to see that

Right here, right now

I’m looking at the bridges I have burned

Laying on the ground (laying on the ground)

tables turn

And I’m the one

I gotta stand (stand)

And fight for the things I love, yeah-yeah

You better understand (stand)

You never run fast enough, no-no, no-no

Some things are gone forever

Once they pass you by

It’s plain to see that

Right here, right now

Just stand (stand), yeah-yeah

You better understand (stand)

You never run fast enough, no-no, no-no

Some things are gone forever

Once they pass you by

It’s plain to see that

Right here, right now

Right here, right now

Is do or die, yeah
