Sly Stone, RIP
By: bizgrrl

Everyday people
Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrong
My own beliefs are in my song
The butcher, the banker, the drummer and then
Makes no difference what group I'm in

I am everyday people, yeah, yea...h

Everybody STAND!

Sly keeps speaking


Stand, in the end, you'll still be you
One that's done all the things you set out to do

Stand, there's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're goin' anywhere

Stand for the things you know are right
It's the truth that the truth makes them so uptight

Stand, all the things you want are real
You have you to complete and there is no deal

Stand, stand, stand
(Everybody, yeah)
Stand, stand, stand

Stand, you've been sitting much too long
There's a permanent crease in your right and wrong

Stand, there's a midget standing tall
And a giant beside him about to fall

Stand, stand, stand

Stand, they will try to make you crawl
And they know what you're sayin' makes sense at all

Stand, don't you know that you are free
Well, at least in your mind if you want to be

Everybody
Stand, stand
Stand
