Stand Up
Stella Soleil Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jack was never a normal man
He never fit into the plan
Ain't as easy as it seems
When you're living the American dream
He wants to run away
He walks to the boss's door
I'm never gonna work in this dump no more
Stand up, if you wanna be free at last
Stand up, if you wanna forget the past
Stand up, if you're living your life too fast
Stand up, come on just have a blast
Na, na na na na, na, na na na
Na, na na na na, na, na na na
We've got the right to love
We've got the right to funk
Until we've had enough
Na, na na na na
Stand up
We've got the right to life
We can stay up all night
Just stand up for your right
Na, na na na na, na, na na na na
Stand up
She was never a normal girl
Didn't fit into their world
She sang to pass the time
While she saved to make a dime
But then she ran away
Miles and miles and miles away
Never paid to hear her songs
Of love, just sing along
Na, na na na na, na, na na na
Na, na na na na, na, na na na
Stand up
We've got the right to love
We've got the right to funk
Until we've had enough
Na, na na na na
Stand up
We've got the right to life
We can stay up all night
Just stand up for your right
Na, na na na na
Stand up
We've got the right to love
We've got the right to funk
Until we've had enough
Na, na na na na
Stand up
We've got the right to life
We can stay up all night
Just stand up for your right
If you wanna live it
If you wanna it now
If you wanna kick it
Then get up off the ground
Stand up
If you wanna live it
If you wanna it now
If you wanna kick it
Then get up off the ground
Stand up
We've got the right to love
We've got the right to funk
Until we've had enough
Na, na na na na
Stand up
We've got the right to life
We can stay up all night
Just stand up for your right
Na, na na na na
Stand up
We've got the right to love
We've got the right to funk
Until we've had enough
Na, na na na na
Stand up
We've got the right to life
We can stay up all night
Just stand up for your right
Na, na na na na, na, na na na na

It's difficult to be yourself when you're living in a society that values conformity
He wants to run away
He wants to leave everything and start afresh
Miles and miles and miles away

She was never a normal girl
She was always different from others
Didn't fit into their world
She didn't conform to others' ways of life
She sang to pass the time
She sang to escape and cope with life
While she saved to make a dime
While she worked hard to save money
But then she ran away
She left everything behind to pursue her dreams
Never paid to hear her songs
Nobody paid attention to her music or dreams
Of love, just sing along
Her songs were about love and people only listened without truly understanding
If you wanna live it
If you want to live your best life
If you wanna it now
If you want it now, don't wait
If you wanna kick it
If you want to make things happen
Then get up off the ground
Stand up and make your dreams happen
Stand up
Take a step forward and be yourself
