Sellout

It was an ordinary morning 
 At the school upon the hill 
 The sun was slowly rising 
 The flag was standing still 
 And the students were rushing 
 To face another day 


 But in the middle of the madness 
 There was one who made her way 
 She was standing by the flagpole 
 She bowed her head to pray 
 She said "I, I will not be afraid." 


 She said who will stand, stand together 
 Heart to heart reaching out for love 
 Hand in hand with each other
 By God's grace, who will stand?


 Now everyone was watching
 Staring at the girl
 Some of them were laughing
 And calling her a fool
 And they said "She, ohh she will stand alone"


 But then one by one they stepped out
 One by one they came
 Breaking from their silence
 With a simple act of faith
 They cried "We, no we are not ashamed"


 We will stand, stand together
 Heart to heart reaching out for love
 Hand in hand with each other
 By God's grace, we will stand


 And we will stand up for what we believe
 And we will stand up for our freedom
 we will stand up for one nation under God
 With liberty and justice for all!


 We will stand, stand together
 Heart to heart reaching out for love
 We will stand, stand together
 Heart to heart reaching out for love
 Hand in hand with each other
 By God's grace, we will stand!


 We will stand, we will stand together
 By God's grace
 Heart to heart 
 Hand in hand
 We are not ashamed...
