The Stand
The Floacist Lyrics

To life
Addressing the subject of life

Why are you afraid what you gonna do?
Asking why one is scared of what they are capable of doing

Scared that you may change, isn't that the truth?
Implying that fear of change is the underlying reason for being afraid

Who are you to say? You're not gonna win
Asking who has the right to say that one can't win

How'd you ever know if you just give in?
Posing a question to encourage not giving up too soon

Tell me how will you know? How will you know?
Repeating the question for emphasis

If you just give in, tell me how you'll grow?
Challenging the listener to think about the potential missed opportunities if giving up

Stand up, you better stand up, come on, every time you fall down
Urging the listener to stand up every time they fall or are knocked down

Stand up, stand up, even if you're small
Encouraging the listener to stand up for themselves regardless of their stature

You can stand tall, come on, come on, yeah
Empowering the listener to stand tall and have confidence in themselves

Believe in yourself or who's gonna?
Asking who will believe in oneself if they don't

If you never dream for yourself then who's gonna?
Encouraging the listener to have dreams for themselves

How you gonna do for yourself, how you gonna ?
Asking how the listener will take actions for themselves

You know you have to prove it to yourself so you're gotta
Stressing the importance of proving oneself for personal growth

Gotta make a change rearrange if you wanna
Encouraging the listener to make changes in order to achieve their goals

Make it to the top is a short day you got it
Suggesting that reaching the top is possible in a short amount of time

Is a spotlight all for you but to bring it
Implying that the spotlight is there for the taking if one is willing to step up

Bring an A game 18 cause you want it, stand up
Encouraging the listener to give it their all and to stand up for themselves

What you gonna do, what you gonna do?
Asking the listener what actions they intend to take

You'll just have to choose, choose, where you wanna go, where you wanna go?
Stressing the importance of making choices and deciding one's own path

What is there to loose, yeah
Imploring the listener to consider what they have to lose by not taking action

How you gonna move, how you gonna move?
Asking how the listener will progress forward

If you won't stay, stay, how you gonna flow? If you're in your way
Challenging the listener to overcome their own obstacles in order to progress

Tell me, why do you delay? Why do you delay?
Asking the listener what's holding them back and delaying progress

And what you got to say? Say
Encouraging the listener to speak up and take ownership of their actions

It's gonna be ok, stand up, you better stand up, come on now, every time you fall down
Assuring the listener that everything will be alright and to keep standing up every time they fall

Stand up, stand up, even if you're small, even if you're small
Encouraging the listener to stand up for themselves regardless of their stature

Believe in yourself or who's gonna?
Asking who will believe in oneself if they don't

To the top is a short day you got it
Reassuring the listener that reaching their goals is achievable in a short amount of time

Spotlight all for you gotta bring it
Urging the listener to seize the opportunity of the spotlight

Bring your A game 18 if you want it,
Encouraging the listener to give their all if they want it

Change rearrange if you want it
Reminding the listener that change is needed to achieve what they want

A game 18 if you want it.
Encouraging the listener to give their all if they want to achieve their goals

Stand up, come on, stand up.
Final call to action to stand up for oneself
