Verse 1:
Fm                       Dbadd9                  Eb
You've been hanging your conscious on the fence
      Bbm        Eb
Cause you can't hold it
Fm       Dbadd9               Eb
An empty promise laid to rest
  Bbm      Eb
A life is stolen
Fm             Dbadd9      Eb
And there will be no consequence
    Bbm       Eb
For what you broken
Fm        Dbadd9           Eb           Eb Bbm
Don't you know, what your father said
 
Pre-Chorus:
                Bbm Eb
We are the only
                 Eb
We are the brave
                   Bbm Eb
We are America, but
 
We are to blame
 
Chorus:
Fm
Stand up, Stand up,
 
Can you hear me now
Ab
All I, All I
 
Really want now is
Db
Your voice, Your voice
 
Screaming out loud, saying
Eb
We can make it, or we can make it
Fm
Fist up, Fist up!
 
Don't put your hands down

All I, All I
 
Really want now is

We can make it, or we can make it

Fm                    Dbadd9               Eb
We've been biting our tongues for far too long
Bbm       Ab
And they know it
Fm                Dbadd9              Eb
They told us that hope would carry on
     Bbm            Ab
They really had us going
Fm             Dbadd9      Eb
And there will be no consequence
         Bbm        Eb
For your simple hypnosis
Fm        Dbadd9           Eb           Eb Bbm
Don't you know, what your father said
 
Pre-Chorus:
                Bbm Eb
We are the only
                 Eb
We are the brave
                   Bbm Eb
We are America, but
 
We are to blame
 
Chorus:
Fm
Stand up, Stand up,
 
Can you hear me now
Ab
All I, All I
 
Really want now is
Db
Your voice, Your voice
 
Screaming out loud, saying

We can make it, or we can make it
Fm
Fist up, Fist up!
 
Don't put your hands down
Ab
All I, All I
 
Really want now is

Your voice, Your voice
 
Screaming out loud, saying

Biography

After getting dropped by Columbia Records at 18 years old, singer-songwriter Alec Benjamin built a following by playing in parking lots outside of Shawn Mendes and Troye Sivan concerts. The Phoenix, Arizona native caught the attention of Jon Bellion, earning a songwriting credit on Bellion’s debut album and later joined him on tour.

To build on the momentum, Benjamin began uploading new songs to his YouTube channel at a rapid clip and eventually earned a viral hit with “I Built a Friend” and a deal with Atlantic Records.
