Genre: R&B

  • Songwriters: Derrick Joshua, Beverley Knight, Derrick D Martin

Hear me, yeah, yeah
Ah ha hmm hear what
Hear what, hear what

Watch the way that people change
Flip the script and rearrange
Hoping they can just belong
Even when it's wrong uh-huh

Searching for identity
What's the next philosophy?
What's the next big thing in town?
That they can surround?

Don't feel no shame
Let them know you're not the same
Don't feel no way
You stand tall while people sway

True to yourself
Leave them fakers on the shelf
Heed your calling
Go and do your thing, hear me?

Get up, get up and hold your ground
You don't care what goes around
Stand up, stand up and hold your ground
Hold your ground

Dem no bigger than us, no bigger than we
No bigger than you, no bigger than me
Dem no bigger than us, no bigger than we
No bigger than you, no bigger than me

Watch the way that people go
To the cat that runs the show
Next thing they are rolling thick
Down with that clique, hmm

Soon enough they act the same
Walk the same and talk the same
Until these so called inspired
State the look is tired, let me hear you say

Don't feel no shame
Let them know you're not the same
Don't feel no way
You stand tall while people sway

True to yourself
Leave them fakers on the shelf
Heed your calling
Go and do your thing, hear me?

Get up, get up and hold your ground
You don't care what goes around
Stand up, stand up and hold your ground
Hold your ground

Dem no bigger than us, no bigger than we
No bigger than you, no bigger than me
Dem no bigger than us, no bigger than we
No bigger than you, no bigger than me

Get up and stand up and hold it, get up, get up, yeah
You gotta, gotta, stand up, stand up
Stand up for me, get up get up, alright
You gotta, gotta, stand up, stand up, yeah, yeah, yeah

Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh
Get up and stand up and hold it
Get up and stand up and hold it
Get up and stand up and hold it, feel it

Don't feel no shame
Let them know you're not the same
Don't feel no way
You stand tall while people sway

True to yourself
Leave them fakers on the shelf
Heed your calling
Go and do your thing, hear me?

Get up, get up and hold your ground
You don't care what goes around
Stand up, stand up and hold your ground
Hold your ground

Dem no bigger than us, no bigger than we
No bigger than you, no bigger than me
Dem no bigger than us, no bigger than we
No bigger than you, no bigger than me
