Stand!

During a political campaign period it's easy to get caught up in a negative attack mindset, and forget the real reasons for being involved in furthering humane political ideals. But in fighting a monster, one must be careful to not become one.

So, with this in mind, I’ve been listening to this song recently, and have found that it really epitomises the positive approach to fighting for a better world. Aside from that, it's generally uplifting so is great when you're not feeling the best.

The lyrics aren't always audible, so I'll post them beneath the vid.

Stand
In the end you'll still be you
One that's done all the things you set out to do
Stand
There's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're going anywhere
Stand
For the things you know are right
It s the truth that the truth makes them so uptight
Stand
All the things you want are real
You have you to complete and there is no deal
Stand. stand, stand
Stand. stand, stand
Stand
You've been sitting much too long
There's a permanent crease in your right and wrong
Stand
There's a midget standing tall
And the giant beside him about to fall
Stand. stand, stand
Stand. stand, stand
Stand
They will try to make you crawl
And they know what you're saying makes sense and all
Stand
Don't you know that you are free
Well at least in your mind if you want to be

Everybody
Stand, stand, stand
