“Take a stand, take a stand, nobody ever won that ran – Even when you’re outnumbered – Take a stand, take a stand, change a mind if you can – Use all your might if you’re right – Take a stand.” A song of hope and determination against dismal odds, “Take a Stand” was written by Rowan County native, David Myers, and performed in the studio with his band Big Break. Definitely, a song for this moment in history.

-verse 1-
There are times in your life, when you know you should fight
Even when it is clear, that a win is unlikely
Just keep your chin tucked in, and move side to side
Keep on swinging, you can lose with pride
-chorus 1-
Take a stand take a stand nobody ever won that ran
Even when you’re outnumbered
Take a stand take a stand change a mind if you can
Use all your might, if you’re right
Take a stand
-verse 2-
So when the time comes, and you can’t feel your feet,
And you hear your voice shake, don’t be scared to speak no
Cause we are all equal, and you know what you know
And if you know what’s right, then you should say so
-chorus 2-
Take a stand take a stand nobody ever won that ran
Even when you’re outnumbered
Take a stand take a stand change a life if you can
Use all your might, if you’re right
Take a stand
-verse 3-
So these times in your life, don’t be scared to fight
Even when it is clear, that a win is unlikely
Just keep your chin tucked in, and move side to side
Keep on swinging, you might be surprised
-chorus 3-
Take a stand take a stand nobody ever won that ran
Even when you’re outnumbered
Take a stand take a stand change the world if you can
Use all your might, if you’re right
Take a stand
