Just Stand Up
Beyonce Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The heart is stronger than you think
It's like it can go through anything
And even when you think it can't it finds a way to still push on, though

Sometimes you want to run away
Ain't got the patience for the pain
And if you don't believe it look into
Your heart the beat goes on

I'm tellin' you that
Things get better
Through whatever
If you fall, dust it off, don't let up

Don't you know you can go be your own miracle

You need to know

If the mind keeps thinking you've had enough
But the heart keeps telling you don't give up

Who are we to be
Questioning, wondering what is what
Don't give up
Through it all, just stand up!

It's like we all have better days
Problems getting all up in your face

Just because you go through it

Don't mean it got to take control, no

You ain't gotta find no hiding place

Because the heart can beat the hate

Don't wanna let your mind keep playin' you

And sayin' you can't go on

I'm tellin' you that

Things get better
Through whatever

If you fall

Dust if off, don't let up

Don't you know you

Can go

Be your own

Miracle

You need to know

If the mind keeps thinking you've had enough
But the heart keeps telling you don't give up

You don't gotta be a prisoner in your mind

If you fall, dust it off

You can live your life

Yeah

Let your heart be your guide

Yeah yeah yeah

And you will know that you're good if you trust in the good

Everything will be alright, yeah
Light up the dark, if you follow your heart

And it will get better

Through whatever

If the mind keeps thinking you've had enough
But the heart keeps telling you don't give up

You got it in you, find it within
You got in now, find it within now
You got in you, find it within
You got in now, find it within now
You got in you, find it within
Find it within you, find it within





Through it all, just stand up
