Stand For Children

[Verse 1] Children are not missing They’re taken Abused and neglected Violated, used, and dead It’s been going on too long Too long in this world I’m crying for the ones That never got home [Pre-Chorus] This is not a theory This is blood and truth Stand up, speak out Bring the proof Report it, follow through Do what law must do If you knew, you knew Now what will you do? [Chorus] Stand for children (stand for children) Say it loud, say it plain Stand for children (stand for children) Bring the ones who caused the pain Report, follow through Justice must remain Stand for children (stand for children) Protect them all again [Verse 2] Selfish hands do damage Then hide behind a smile Perpetrators, traffickers Walking free awhile That kind of power Needs a locked-up end Never trusted again That’s how safety wins [Pre-Chorus] This is not a theory This is happening now Stand up, speak out Make a vow Report it, follow through Do it now, do it now Let the law protect What was stolen somehow [Chorus] Stand for children (stand for children) Say it loud, say it plain Stand for children (stand for children) Bring the ones who caused the pain Report, follow through Justice must remain Stand for children (stand for children) Protect them all again [Bridge] I speak for the trembling For the bruised, for the gone For the ones who were silenced But deserve a dawn Lock the doors on cruelty Throw the key away Let the truth stay standing Let the children stay [Final Chorus] Stand for children (stand for children) Say it loud, say it plain Stand for children (stand for children) Bring the ones who caused the pain Report, follow through Justice must remain Stand for children (stand for children) Protect them all again
