Lyrics
I literally jumped outta my bed this morning
and when both of my feet hit the floor,
I heard God say "Stand."
I searched franticly for my pen and my pad
so I could capture what it was my Father wanted to say to me.
"Stand." I paused and just stood there.
"Ok,... now Imma tell you what you're standing for..."
You're standing for that little girl in a wheelchair
whose mother has no healthcare
cause she's not exactly on welfare
But she makes too much for Medicaid
And if she buys insurance the rent won't get paid
So she prays that her daughter stays in remission
and takes on a second job to afford the prescriptions
So my daughter YOU stand and break the lid off this mystery
of how our people keep dying in this healthscare industry
And maybe then we'll take part in this political process
and bring our elderly out of medical distress
And when we're finally fighting cuz we won't take no more...
I'll introduce you to the next group you're standing for:
You're standing for those living with AIDS
those dying with AIDS
so somebody can get paid
off a disease that was man-made
And don't sit there like I just told you some news
Cuz I'm not Joe and these aren't Blues Clues
It's not the disease that displeases my spirit
It's that there's a cure and they won't let us near it
You may think I'm crazy or don't wanna believe me
But how does a celebrity live 15 years with HIV?
"Oh, oh, it's MAGIC, ya knowww..."
Hell No!
Either he never had it or there IS a cure!
But you can be sure it won't reach us
unless we open our mouths and put up a fuss
We gotta raise our awareness and Stop - Being - Careless...
By this time my feet were burning
and I was ready to run
But the Lord said "Stand. I'm not quite done.
There's one more group I want you to represent
And they're the youngest soldiers I've ever sent.
There's a generation that's rising up
And they're filled with fire and they'll never give up
And the enemy knows this and he's ready to buck!
He's poisoning their minds and calling it vaccination,
preventative medication, but all I see is eradication.
A healthy child gets shots and winds up autistic
Yo, I hope you heard me people. Man, Please don't miss this
A healthy child gets shots and winds up autistic
Another soldier down, cuz he's now silent, but gifted.
So God, you want me to stand, and expose all of the plans
That the enemy's masking... Lord, is that what you're askin?
God looked me dead in the face, and said,
"You thought I was asking?"
