Tracy Rollings - MAKING A STAND

I was born in America, raised deep in the south
going to say what I want to, because I have a mouth

People want to make a comment on how they feel
they should be able to, without such a big deal

Some people take a comment and rub it in the ground
turn it around and try to make you look like a clown

So I'm going to say what I think and believe
you don't like what I saying, then please just leave

I'm proud of who I am and where we live
I took a lot of crap and now it's time to give

No I don't like the changes, that people make
and to be real honest, had all I can take

I'm gonna say what I want, because this is my land
worked here all my life, now It's time to make a stand
