American Strong

(album: Self Made In America - 2022)

See we may not be right but we ain't doin wrong
We take it on the chin and keep on rockin every song
A little bit of country and a little bit of soul
We're takin our time down a one way road
Remembering our roots how our daddy's made us tough
We made a bond with buddies we would never give up
Thinkin bout the days that I wish were never gone
There's nothin like the feelin of American Strong

I've been down, I've been up, I've been through that bullshit
I've taken my licks and I grew up a tough kid
See most times I live life real slow like, no popstar
My life ain't what you think, all I've got, I've worked for
I'm a good 'ol boy from a good 'ol town, I been shit on but I'm still around
Wanna beat me, gotta shoot me down
Cause I ain't never give up you should know it now
Told the world they gotta fuck with me, cause I'm hotter than fire with gasoline
Country boy with a city lean, and an outlaw mind if I'm gettin mean
I've taken time to to reflect a life of the old ways when I learned to fight
When it was all good to be all wrong, when you fucked up you just made it right
It's sad today they don't raise em up to be grown men and that's wrong
Cause where I'm from it's all good to be raised American Strong

See we may not be right but we ain't doin wrong
We take it on the chin and keep on rockin every song
A little bit of country and a little bit of soul
We're takin our time down a one way road
Remembering our roots how our daddy's made us tough
We made a bond with buddies we would never give up
Thinkin bout the days that I wish were never gone
There's nothin like the feelin of American Strong

Overtime what up baby
I remember my roots they tellin lies ain't my truth
To some it might seem minute but them principles I won't dilute
My boots, still covered in mud, my heart it ain't nothin but love
This crazy world it does what it does and God up above me I trust
Must we discuss what's already understood
America just reflexed, each section of the whole wide worlds rejects
That's each sex or whatever box he or she checks
Everything in between every ethnicity, nationality no defect
Wanna get rid of them folks yours just might be next, just relax
Every human is human make sure you be strong where he lacks
And if he backs this candidate you adamantly feel differently
Just remember ain't either one of them shit to me

See we may not be right but we ain't doin wrong
We take it on the chin and keep on rockin every song
A little bit of country and a little bit of soul
We're takin our time down a one way road
Remembering our roots how our daddy's made us tough
We made a bond with buddies we would never give up
Thinkin bout the days that I wish were never gone
There's nothin like the feelin of American Strong
