Stand Up by Somaya Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She walked in the house surrounded by friends
She took each shot down, didn't want the night to end
'Till he got her alone and took a piece of her
You say brush it off, but there's no cure
[Chorus]
And boys will be boys you say
But how can a girl feel safe
When there's nobody fighting for us
Oh stand up, stand up
Oh stand up, stand up
Yeah boys will be boys you say
But we won't accept that today
We're saying that we've had enough
So stand up, stand up
Oh stand up, stand up
[Verse 2]
The man in the uniform, he won't help
Says there's nothing he can do so she blames herself
And now anytime a guy gets close she gets scared
And she lies awake at night crying, how is this fair?
[Chorus]
And boys will be boys you say
But how can a girl feel safe
When there's nobody fighting for us
Oh stand up, stand up
Oh stand up, stand up
Yeah boys will be boys you say
But we won’t accept that today
We're saying that we’ve had enough
So stand up, stand up
Oh stand up, stand up
[Outro]
Stand up oh stand up
She walked in the house surrounded by friends
She took each shot down, didn't want the night to end
'Till he got her alone and took a piece of her
You say brush it off, but there's no cure
[Chorus]
And boys will be boys you say
But how can a girl feel safe
When there's nobody fighting for us
Oh stand up, stand up
Oh stand up, stand up
Yeah boys will be boys you say
But we won't accept that today
We're saying that we've had enough
So stand up, stand up
Oh stand up, stand up
[Verse 2]
The man in the uniform, he won't help
Says there's nothing he can do so she blames herself
And now anytime a guy gets close she gets scared
And she lies awake at night crying, how is this fair?
[Chorus]
And boys will be boys you say
But how can a girl feel safe
When there's nobody fighting for us
Oh stand up, stand up
Oh stand up, stand up
Yeah boys will be boys you say
But we won’t accept that today
We're saying that we’ve had enough
So stand up, stand up
Oh stand up, stand up
[Outro]
Stand up oh stand up
