Sacred oath sworn
Torn world
The day I was born
Burned all forms
Shot through the electricity of the storm
Brick layers
Create buildings for tax payers
Built on sacred craters
My big Indian head
Stitched on the jackets of basketball players
With little care for their stares
My forehead reads beware
Like cops doing lines before speeches for D.A.R.E
I'll never be the singing Indian princess Sher
Gotta say I'm proud of where I came from
Gotta be the man I dreamed I'd Become
Gotta say I'm proud of where I came from
Gotta be the man I dreamed I'd Become
Gotta say I'm proud of where I came from
Gotta be the man I dreamed I'd Become
Gotta say I'm proud of where I came from
Where I came from
Opportunities cut short
Left to the Wild west resort
I'm a human being
Not here to twist and contort
Life is a vision of sorts
Someday's I give speeches some days I'm in court
Never forgetting what MLK said on April the 4th
The bond is never divorced
Preparing a life cut short
In hopes, all my relations have their dignity restored
Gotta say I'm proud of where I came from
Gotta be the man I dreamed I'd Become
Gotta say I'm proud of where I came from
Gotta be the man I dreamed I'd Become
Gotta say I'm proud of where I came from
Gotta be the man I dreamed I'd Become
Gotta say I'm proud of where I came from
