Stand Up

Can't you understand? My dilemma I'm a man the same as you I walk the same lines, suffered all the wounds 45 years of putting up with you I just don't know And I ain't got a clue Somebody's gotta stand up Wake up Rise up Stand up to you I just want to start, with my situation I've been seen as cruel and unkind I'm here to tell you they got it all wrong People try to treat me Like I don't belong I don't know why You treat me like you do I just want respect I don't want a hand out Do you see me? Like I see you You don't know me You don't know a thing But you tell me to just shut up and sing You just don't know And you don't got a clue
