Stand Up – an original dance pop track
This new dance pop track Stand Up was a process! It was written as reminder that no matter how beaten down you feel (it happens a lot) it’s hard but so important to keep getting up and trying again. Even against the most impossible odds.
On a technical note, I have been learning more and more about mixing and mastering and still know it’s only the tip of the iceberg. In another post, I will share some things I have been learning and other great sources of information I’ve come across.
I hope you enjoy and please leave a comment below!
LYRICS
Lyrics for “Stand Up,” an original, dance pop track:
Stand up where you are
Keep reaching for the stars
You know it feels so right
You’re fighting for your life
Here you are
Feeling down
Feeling like you’re about to drown
Remembering
Where you were
What happened to the future?
Held in place
It’s no good
Without a past misunderstood
Questioning
Your place here
It’s so hard to live in fear
We all want
To play again
To dance on beaches in the sun
It’s all right
To be afraid
But not ok to give up again
Ok now
So stand up where you are
We have to start somewhere
Not going down alone
You’re breaking out of here
You feel trapped
And starting now
Remembering the cave and how
Time to say
No more pain
Breaking out of molded shame
And here you are
Who are you?
This is what you’re meant to do
You have strength
To break away
And never fall back here again
This is what
You have to do
Don’t stop now
Cause lights in you
It’s OK to be afraid
Moving forward into change
OK now
So stand up where you are
Never say too far
You’re standing on your feet
And listening to the beat
So Stand up where you are
It’ll never be too far
You’re standing up right now
Keep the vision in your heart
You’re frozen
Frozen in this place
You’re frozen
Froze in outer space
Stand up where you are
Never give up the stars
When you’ve fallen down
Get up off the ground
Rise up where you are
You’ve brought yourself this far
You’re moving with the beat
And dancing in the heat
Stand up where you are
Keep reaching for the stars
You know it feels so right
You’re fighting for your life
