[Silence]
[Instrumental, Guitar, Piano, Organ, Synth, Bass, Percussion, Drums]
[Intro]
[Instrumental Intro: Crunchy Guitar Riff, Driving Bass, Organ Chords, Heavy Drums]
[Spoken Vocal]
Life…
Will knock you down.
The question is…
Will you come around?
[Refrain]
Rock and…
(Roll over)
Or stand
(And command)
Take responsibility
(For our reality)
[Verse 1]
The world’s still turning, night and day
Waiting for what we might say
Another challenge comes along
Will we face it, will we be strong?
Blame the weather, blame the tide
Truth is harder to divide
Choices echo through the years
Built from courage, built from fears
[Pre-Chorus]
Stand your ground
(Hold the line)
The future’s built
(One choice at a time)
[Chorus]
Rock and…
(Rise again)
Learn the lesson
(Time and again)
[Refrain]
Rock and…
(Roll over)
Or stand
(And command)
Take responsibility
(For our reality)
[Instrumental]
[Guitar Solo]
[Heavy Bass Groove, Organ Swells, Driving Drums, Arena Guitar]
[Verse 2]
Storms may come and rivers rise
Smoke may fill familiar skies
Problems don’t just disappear
By pretending they aren’t here
[Bridge]
Rock and roll
(Has always been)
About standing up
(Again and again)
Turn it up
(Not away)
Tomorrow starts
(Today)
[Breakdown]
[Minimal Beat, Deep Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
Responsibility…
Isn’t a burden.
It’s the moment…
You realize…
You can help shape…
The hairless ape.
[Final Chorus]
Rock and…
(Roll over)
Or stand
(To command)
Take responsibility
(For our reality)
Raise your voice
(Make a stand)
The future isn’t built
(By someone else’s hand)
Rock and…
Roll forward…
Toward…
[Outro]
[Instrumental Outro: Arena Guitar, Organ Fade, Big Drum Finish]
Rock and…
(Roll over)
Or stand
(Damn demand)
… Take a stand!
