Stand Up lyrics: 

All around the world if we stand up, then we'll light up, and we'll rise up Kid it gets better from here
If we stand up, then we'll rise up and we'll light up up up
All around the world

Verse 1:

Just takes a single moment to find a weak component Sounds like the same old story, but not just one story And all I know is hope is found,
In what's about to come right past now,

You're not alone, with no where to roam,
Just look at the places and where you'll go
Tonight you and me and I,
Still time to decide, whether we step up or stand by the side, And nothings impossible, it's not a long way to go,

Just takes you and I

Chorus:

All around the world if we stand up, then we'll light up, and we'll rise up Kid it gets better from here
If we stand up, then we'll rise up and we'll light up up up
All around the world

I chose to Stand up, I chose to believe and know that there's still so much more than this

Verse 2:

Tomorrows a new day, will we fight it?
Or will we be so cold.
And all I know is hope is found,
When you and I stand up, with courage now.
One day you'll find looking back on your life you will be proud Tonight you and me and I,

Still time to decide, whether we step up or stand by the side, And nothings impossible, it's not a long way to go,
Just takes you and I

Chorus:

All around the world if we stand up, then we'll light up, and we'll rise up Kid it gets better from here
If we stand up, then we'll rise up and we'll light up up up
All around the world

I chose to Stand up, I chose to believe and know that there's still so much more than this

Outro:

Put your hands up, and scream real loud.
We about to turn the whole world upside down
