My brother shot a man for breaking in at 3 a.m
No time for questions, he was just protecting his family
That thief picked the wrong street
Some may not agree and that's their right but I believe
In what was written, in what was given a long time ago
For those who wanna know

Am I proud of where I'm from?
How I was raised, my daddy's ways in this country that I love
Am I proud that all I see
Is black and white, wrong or right and there ain't no changing me?
Am I proud of where I stand? Damn right, I am

At the airport today I met a soldier on his way
Back home to Denver, he had just been injured defending me
Talked a while and I told him he was in my prayers
And I thought right then and there

Am I proud of where I'm from?
How I was raised, my daddy's ways in this country that I love
Am I proud that all I see
Is black and white, wrong or right and there ain't no changing me?
Am I proud of where I stand? Damn right, I am

Am I proud of where I'm from?
How I was raised, my daddy's ways in this country that I love
Am I proud that all I see
Is black and white, wrong or right and there ain't no changing me?
Am I proud of where I stand? Am I proud of who I am?
You're damn right, I am
Damn right, I am
Damn right, I am
