Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ha!
Stand tall for the beast of America.
Lay down like a naked dead body,
keep it real for the people workin' overtime,
they can't stay living off the government dime.
Stand tall for the people of America.
Stand tall for the man next door, cuz
we aren't goin' down like this. Come on Now!
(oo ooo ooooo ooo oo)
C'mon
(oo ooo ooooo ooo oo)
Ha!
(oo ooo ooooo ooo oo)
Come on People
What!
Stand tall for the beast of America.
Lay down like a naked dead body,
keep it real for the people workin' overtime,
they can't stay living off the governments dime.
Stand tall for the people of America.
Stand tall for the man next door, cuz
we are free in the land of America,
we aren't goin' down like this. Come on now!
(oo ooo ooooo ooo oo)
C'mon people!
(oo ooo ooooo ooo oo)

(oo ooo ooooo ooo oo)
C'mon people!

I will be right to you,
I will be right to you,
I will be right to you, and together we can stand up to the beast.
You see... Suppression is a mother f*cking prison
So I hand you the key to your cell,
You've got to love you neighbor, love your neighbor.
And let your neighbor, love you back.
Come on now!
Stand tall for the beast of America.

Stand tall for the people of America.
Stand tall for the man next door,
Cause we are free in the land of America,
we aint goin' down like this. Come on now!
The lyrics of Vicetone vs Nico Vega's song Beast call for Americans to stand up for themselves and each other against the oppressive forces of society. The phrase "beast of America" can be interpreted in a few different ways, but it most likely denigrates the greed and corruption present in American politics and culture. The lyrics call for people to not lay down and give in to this oppressive force but instead to stand tall and keep it real for people who have to work overtime and can't afford to live off of government assistance. The song points to the freedom that America represents and implores people to not let that ideal go to waste.
The chorus repeats the call to action to stand tall for the people of America and for one's neighbors. The end of the song brings it home by saying that suppression is a prison, and that people should love their neighbors and let their neighbors, love them back. This is essentially saying that through unity and love, people can overcome the beast of America and its oppressive forces.
