Stand Up
Devon Werkheiser Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have found my way to get through
You ask of me to give proof
I will not lie down.
I stand up tall from the ground.
I inspire change through being brave
You say to stay the same
all afraid
I will not lie down.
I stand up tall from the ground.




I will not lie down.
We will not lie down.

I just want to say.. I'm so proud to see what you've become. I know you get the whole "Ned" thing quite a bit, but it's almost surreal to see someone who I feel was a friend of mine through middle/high school, evolving into such a free spirit.

Not to mention, you're wicked talented. Just happy to see where you're going and what's next for you, man. Keep on keepin' on!

I don't know about anyone else, but it sounds like a 70's comeback. Of corse he was not alive then, but just the beat. Great voice!
