Fighting the devil and I beat the dragon too.
I'm at your rescue; I'm your faithful one,
If it's the last thing that I ever mean to do.
I'm in deeper than you could know.
The wise in me won't let it go.
You can count on me, guarantee.
I stand up, I stand up,
Believe in myself.
(If you love somebody, stand.)
I stand up, I stand up,
Give me a little respect.
(If you need somebody, stand.)
Out of the shadow, yet I'm alright.
It's not as easy as I know it used to be.
I don't have time to look behind me.
I know the truth and it's the truth that set me free.
One more heart to heart to live for;
One more time to stop the war,
Inside of me; in spite of me.
I stand up, I stand up,
Believe in myself
(If you love somebody, stand.)
I stand up, I stand up,
Give me a little respect.
(If you need somebody, stand.)
[Chorus repeats.]
You'll never lose me to temptation. Fighting the devil and I beat the dragon too. I'm at your rescue; I'm your faithful one, If it's the last thing that I ever mean to do. I'm in deeper than you could know. The wise in me won't let it go. You can count on me, guarantee. I stand up, I stand up, Believe in myself. (If you love somebody, stand.) I stand up, I stand up, Give me a little respect. (If you need somebody, stand.) Out of the shadow, yet I'm alright. It's not as easy as I know it used to be. I don't have time to look behind me. I know the truth and it's the truth that set me free. One more heart to heart to live for; One more time to stop the war, Inside of me; in spite of me. I stand up, I stand up, Believe in myself (If you love somebody, stand.) I stand up, I stand up, Give me a little respect. (If you need somebody, stand.) [Chorus repeats.] Explain Request ×
