Chorus:
Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
 
Preacher man don't tell me: heaven is under the Earth
I know you don't know what life is really worth
It's not all that glitters that's gold, half the story has never been told
So now you see the light, stand up for your right
 
Chorus
 
You see, most people think great God will come from the sky
Take away everything, and make everybody feel high
But if you know what life is really worth, you will look for yours on Earth
And now you see the light, stand up for your right, Jah
 
Chorus
 
We're sick and tired of your ism and skism game, die and go to heaven in Jesus' name
We know when we understand that the son of God is a living man
You can fool some of the people some of the time,
But you can't fool all the people all the time
And now we see the light, we're gonna stand up for our right
 
Chorus
 
Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight (4x)
So, we won't give up the fight (5x)
Stand up for your right (3x)
