Standing Together

 
All people are able to stand up
The sovereign individual has that power
Most prefer not to, they'd rather sit
If difficult they want to sit this one out
It could be that they are scared, nervous
Low is self-esteem, depressed, infirm,
Paranoid, timid, anxious, dullness, stupid,
You may be practising, inertia, inactivity,
Sloth, languour, inertness, weakness,
Incoherence, moral looseness, laxity
You could be drunk, high, passed out,
Inebriated, angry, raging but unwilling
To release the beast that's within us all
Lack of courage
Lack of porridge
Cowardice
Throwadice
Full of shit
Full of spit
Lazy
crazy
Brain hazy
Weak like daisy
Whatever your reason
Whatever your excuse
They are all valid
If you are unable
Or unwilling
To put your head above the parapet

But spare a thought for the legless
Tired of sitting on their fuckin arse
Who rise up to challenge giants
who are willing to slay dragons
Who are up for the fight regardless
Legless folk on electric wheels
Or up on bricks
Are the bravest people that I know
They stand up and fight
They march into battle
No surrender, no retreat
It's easier if you have legs
To stand up straight, chest out
We all must try
Instead of cry
We fight the lie
It is do or die
Don't just comply

Responsibility and courage
Lead to freedom and peace
Both mentally and physically
Fighting back against injustice
We can and will win the day
If we all just stand together
