LOGIC - I Stand Up Before I Stand Down

Logic - I stand up before i stand down

In the words of the great Malcolm X: "If you don't stand for something, then you will fall for anything
So, Listen..
I stand up before i stand down to any "men", no "men" should have the right over any "men"
God's the one i look up to but many "men", only know God before the bury "men"
Power's overrated, after people get the power, then they suppose to hate it
We are all on the slaveship, but some people suck up to the shipowners, tryin' to catch the same fish
I was raised around the racism, my brothers comming out only to go back to prison, see its a cycle not a system
And they can only take what we give 'em, they can't take away centuries of wisdom
So they try to take the children, i won't have it, stay calm won't panic, self-understanding makes the weak vanish
I got a lot more to do before i leave this planet
I stand up before i stand down (x4)

I stand up before i stand up to any laws, Law is based on religion cause it's God's law
Some tribes live in harmony without laws, so then you ask yourself really what's the law's for
The law's there so they can govern us, give themselfs a place where they seem to be above us
But they can't "Habeas Corpus", i been shown about "royal law", every man most abide by a common law
What are taxes for? Except obviously keeping poor people poor
Salute Ross (American Spectator?) Cause he said; "how is a police a civil servant, when he is not even a civil person"
The system that they put in place in police isn't working, so go fix it, make it so the law don't discriminate
Because what is a law with no justice. A document of hate gets legislated
Mr. (Bow.... ?) was one of the originators, they manipulated God's laws to make their own
Make it so they always have the full control, do you understand are do you stand over
Stay calm i won't panic
Self understanding will make the weak vanish, I got a lot more to do before i leave this planet
Self understanding will make the weak vanish, I got a lot more to do before i leave this planet

I stand up before i stand down (4x)

I stand up before i stand down to anything, cause if you don't stand you gonna fall for anything
Some people in the world don't have anything, other rich people won't give them anything
If we had it then we must can inherit it, Once we get it will we cherish it
See i'm not a member of the "sheeple", i'm a general, i stand for the people
I stand for the concept that the whole world's equal, I stand strong i stand proud
No zionist allowed, cause i vow to the people in the West Bank, that i'll say; "Free Palestine" till i'm a dead man
I won't let your checkpoints check man, every man living here has a right to be
Free like the air we breath, freedom shouldn't be rare to see
We are not caged animals, We are the animals who cage other animals and label them as animals
Imagine that, pot calling the kettle black, human nature has become to wanna overpower
A weaker human being, basically to be a coward, as long as we get the power, power's overrated
You're powerless cause i don't rate it, i stand up to the unloved, always judged before they're known
You are not alone, you are not alone
