P.o.s. - Stand up (Let's Get Murdered) lyrics

[Intro] Yeah! Lazerbeak! P.O.S.! Doomtree! Stand up! Yeah! Stand up! Stand up! You know, rappin' and sh** [Verse 1: P.O.S.] Yo, it's funny when the movement makes the mainstream But still don't do sh** but bruise a dream Could use a new level of youth on scene But the truth is the kids are losin' steam They say it's a shame to undermine it But we're talkin' about the most hated machine of all time They're playin' a game with most of our lives But in November, who had the patience to stand in line? It's plain insane, they'd come to realize it It's big pain, stalk a flock a sheep Talk's cheap, when I shock you Used to want to street fight like Blanka Now I just pray I don't lose my f**in head like boss Tanaka Rock a black bandana too tight Black man with the posture of a punk cast aside ‘cause I ain't white I'm patriotic like a fox I hung my flag high, but must've misunderstood when Beanie Sigel was like ”Hey, yo, light that sh** the f** up!” I ain't white, and there's laws for that So I use color-safe bleach at the laundromat And deal with it, you see how my squad react We keep our hands warm with the damn Patriot Act We burn pages, matter a fact we burn back It was written as an outright attack See, you can't fight a feeling. I feel terrified There's a war against me, my friends, my fam, my pride My life, my job, my likes and like-minded Folks are like, “Psh” like they just don't mind it So I'm cool, right? They wag the dog. We catch the lipstick What kind of city plumber thought that he could make these old and rusty pipes fit? Well, they don't. I'm catching the drip I'll practice holdin' my breath, then sink with the ship It goes… Hands up, if you're broken but find a way to stand up Give it up, if you're hopin' and never givin' up Hands up, if you're broken but find a way to stand up Give it up, if you're hopin' and never givin' up (Doom) Hands up, if you're broken but find a way to stand up(Tree) Give it up, if you're hopin' and never givin' up(Doom) Hands up, if you're broken but find a way to stand up(Tree) Give it up, if you're hopin' and never givin' up(Doom) Stand up, so we know who's here,(Tree) Who wants to open up the machine and rage against the gears? Come on! Hands up, if you're broken but find a way to stand up Give it up, if you're hopin' and never givin' up Stand up, so we know who's here Who wants to open up the machine and rage against the gears? Hands up, if you're broken but find a way to stand up Give it up, if you're hopin' and never givin' up Stand up, so we know who's here Who wants to open up the machine and rage against the gears? Come On! Stand up! Stand up! Stand up! Stand up! Stand up!
