People United

We need to stand up and fight
We need to stick up for our rights
We need to stand all as one
Because the people united will get it done

We need to sing our protest song
It's time to shout what we felt all along
We need to stand all as one
Because the people united will get it done

Many bands have come and gone
Urged us to protest with their songs
We've sung their lyrics, cheered right over wrong
Now yell out and sing our protest song

Our voices alone this time will not get it done
Because the people united will get it done
It's time to stand up and fight
It's time to stick up for our rights
