Preferred Band/Artist: AKA
Intro:
Okay I about had it, i just, i just,
Verse 1:
Today I came across a six year old
In blistering cold, five below zero
And I just couldn’t withhold
The anger that developed inside me
That a president blew 200 million for personal while there’s kids in our country starving
I’m not a saint but I know in which direction my heart beats
Even if I’m slayed and down to my sharp knees
With my head on a chopping board
I still won’t forsake the people beside me
Especially those who put me in the position I reside in
Chorus: (x2)
I just cannot bear to stand and watch
There comes a time when someone’s gotta stand up
I’m that someone and now is the time
And I’m not stopping ’til the end of time
Verse 2:
Lately I’ve been feeling alone, debating on my own
Relating myself to others, suffering the same struggles
Everyone has their troubles but not everyone
Has the triumph and courage
To overcome what has been laid upon them
Even I cannot always handle the challenges like a man
And face it instead I would try and take my life and waste me
Thinking ’bout it, it disgraces me
Without blinking I could of been erased
But I believe there’s a reason why I stayed and I’m grateful
For everything and everyone who helped save me
Chorus: (x2)
I just cannot bear to stand and watch
There comes a time when someone’s gotta stand up
I’m that someone and now is the time
And I’m not stopping ’til the end of time
