Stand Up Man
Young T & Bugsey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Protect the wild, tomorrow's child
Protect the land from the greed of man
Take out the dams, stand up to oil
Protect the plants and renew the soil

Who's gonna stand up and save the Earth?
Who's gonna say that she's had enough?
Who's gonna take on the big machine?
Who's gonna stand up and save the Earth?
This all starts with you and me

End fossil fuel, draw the line
Before we build one more pipeline
End fracking now, let's save the water
And build a life for our sons and daughters

Who's gonna stand up and save the Earth?
Who's gonna say that she's had enough?
Who's gonna take on the big machine?
Who's gonna stand up and save the Earth?
This all starts with you and me

Damn the dams, save the rivers
Starve the takers and feed the givers
Let's build the green and save the world
We're the people known as EARTH

Who's gonna stand up and save the Earth?
Who's gonna say that she's had enough?
Who's gonna take on the big machine?




Who's gonna stand up and save the Earth?
This all starts with you and me

Livin' on the wild side, I don't follow guidelines
Winner 'bout mine, yes you know I'm 'bout mine
In the air, adding fuel to the fire
Bae turn, I make her sing like Mariah
Head to toe, when I Sheneneh
We go back, we go way-way-way
Where's your man, heard he saw OJ
Squeezed her better like yeah, yeah, yeah

Hop on the ting, grope on the ting
Lop on the ting, don't flop on the ting
Push it back pon the ting, pull up on the ting
Slap on the ting, don't ramp on the ting

See I tied down a fighter
Man they blow helicopter
Stack it up, no cut yuh
Said they fight boy, pa-pa
Damn right, listen, the return of the mob
Jungle mess done
Don't make it long, put the cash in the bag

German words, baby gutentag
If the band's too smart tell him jump in the van
All turn bad, saw one job
Tell a girl Vossi Bop, babygirl don't dab
Joke and stab, pass exam
Gyal whine in a car finna trap and a Lamb

Livin' on the wild side, I don't follow guidelines
Winner 'bout mine, yes you know I'm 'bout mine
In the air, adding fuel to the fire
Bae turn, I make her sing like Mariah
Head to toe, when I Sheneneh
We go back, we go way-way-way
Where's your man, heard he saw OJ
Squeezed her better like yeah, yeah, yeah

Know dey wanna see me fall down
But I can't fall down
'Cause I'm a stand up man
Know dey wanna see me fall down
But I can't fall down
'Cause I'm a stand up man

Pop back on you like a jack-in-the-box
News still matter, niggas run this shit off
Deep fry enough and I'm servin' it rough
Area boys make the area hop
Old school buggy like a rag-a-man sound
Shit got coddy, but I bag a man down

Gravy livin', splashin' downtown
Wanna posh red, tell 'em Dagenham bound
Grind up, look great, and my palm with the blunt
Fight to the death, man I bang what I rep
Dior when I step, put that ice on my neck
Tats on her breast, with the blast off her chest

You won't catch me in the club if they're checking kled
What the fuck am I doin' there?
'Cause them niggas be where?
Gettin' to the checks, oh yeah
Livin' up to buss, I back that

Livin' on the wild side, I don't follow guidelines
Winner 'bout mine, yes you know I'm 'bout mine
In the air, adding fuel to the fire
Bae turn, I make her sing like Mariah
Head to toe, when I Sheneneh
We go back, we go way-way-way
Where's your man, heard he saw OJ
Squeezed her better like yeah, yeah, yeah

Know dey wanna see me fall down
But I can't fall down
'Cause I'm a stand up man
Know dey wanna see me fall down
But I can't fall down
'Cause I'm a stand up man

Know dey wanna see me fall down
But I can't fall down
'Cause I'm a stand up man
Know dey wanna see me fall down
But I can't fall down
'Cause I'm a stand up man

Livin' on the wild side, I don't follow guidelines
Winner 'bout mine, yes you know I'm 'bout mine
In the air, adding fuel to the fire
Bae turn, I make her sing like Mariah
Head to toe, when I Sheneneh
We go back, we go way-way-way
Where's your man, heard he saw OJ
Squeezed her better like yeah, yeah, yeah
