Sometimes I wake up on the wrong side of the town

And sometimes I speak out the wrong of my mouth

Sometimes I wait for a change, but it never comes my way

Until I stand

So, I stand


[Pre-Chorus]

See I try to get away, get away, get away

Oh I try to get away yeah

I try to get away, get away, get away

But I can't


[Chorus]

So I stand (I stand)

Oooh, (oh) I stand

Whooo, (oh)

I stand


[Riz Johnson]

I was born a legend, I was made to conquer

I was built to be a vessel of my father

I'm the walking proof that no weapon can prosper

Place it on the altar, faith will never falter

Pray for God's control and i'll be standing tall

Until they rest my soul and wait til heaven calls me

I can't sell my soul cause nothing here is promised

Nothing here is worth it, nothing here is honest

Nobody is holy, we a bunch of sinners

Trouble on my mind, I hope to be forgiven

Trouble always finds a way into my system

Every time I shine they find a way to dim it

I hate asking questions nobody can answer

I hate having answers nobody can handle

I got so much hate inside my blackened heart

That i might need to go and get my anger managed

Picture perfect candids, see me at my lowest

Liver killer bandit, drink it like i stole it

Told my mom I'm sober, I was in a coma

I was swerving heavy, I ain't have control

I made a life decision, stand up to addiction

Stand against the thought of something being missing

Stand and weather out the storm in these conditions

Stand up to the substance causing my conviction (yeah)
