STAND UP AND FIGHT By Iwer George

Well well... yeah, oh yes

Hail everybody, once again bacchanal in we country
I like to see people having fun
This rounds keep all yuh heads on
We have some leaders in this place, taking advantage on the human race
Man, they did it to we once, they did it to we twice
Before they squeeze we in a bind
We must stand up and fight
Ah say to get up and fight
We must stand up and fight to survive
Well, we must stand up and fight
Ah say to get up and fight
We must stand up and fight for we life.
Brethren [Don't give up the fight]
Sistren [Don't give up the fight]
Well, we must stand up and fight for survival
Garvey say, [Don't give up the fight]
Ah say, ah say, ah so ah say [Don't give up the fight]
Well, we must stand up and fight to survive...Well

They taking advantage, they feel poor people stupid
They making all the money
They have the children hungry, hungry
These people too damn greedy
That's why we must ban them in the 90
Man, the purpose of this fight is to make the living right against IMF pressure
We must stand up and fight
Ah say to get up and fight
We must stand up and fight to survive
Well, we must stand up and fight
Ah say to get up and fight
We must stand up and fight for we life.
Brethren [Don't give up the fight]
Hail sistren [Don't give up the fight]
Well, we must stand up and fight for survival
Garvey say [Don't give up the fight]
What Marley say [Don't give up the fight]
Well, we must stand up and fight to survive... Well

We must take a stand, come together to rescue this nation
The value-added tax system erase hopes now for poor men
But my friends I do believe, once we fight together we must achieve
Man we going down today, moving anything above we way
Any stupidness they say
We must stand up and fight
We got to get up and fight
We must stand up and fight to survive
Yes, we must stand up and fight
We got to to get up and fight
We must stand up and fight to survive
Brethren [Don't give up the fight]
Sistren [Don't give up the fight]
We must stand up and fight for survival...well well
[Don't give up the fight] Ah so ah so ah say
[Don't give up the fight] Stand up and fight to survive... Well

We must have a plan to give to the young generation
Let them know their life would be filled with hope, love and glory
Is our duty to make sure their life will be worth living for
Man, to do that ent easy, we have to clean up the city
Before we enemies done we.

We must stand up and fight
We got to get up and fight
We must stand up and fight to survive
------ get up and fight stand up and fight
We must stand up and fight to survive.
Brethren [Don't give up the fight]
Sistren [Don't give up the fight]
Well, we must stand up and fight for survival
Garvey say [Don't give up the fight]
What Marley say [Don't give up the fight]
Well, we must stand up and fight to survive... Well

Garvey say [Don't give up the fight]
What Marley say [Don't give up the fight]
Mandela say [Don't give up the fight]
I say [Don't give up the fight]
Yeah, you must never, never, never, never
You must never, never, never, never, never.....

A Note From The Gull

"We must take a stand, come together to rescue this nation"
Thank you Iwer George.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
