This Is My Country Lyrics

Some people think we dont have the right
To say its my country
Before they give in, they'd rather fuss and fight
Than say its my country
I've paid three hundred years or more
Of slave driving, sweat, and welts on my back
This is my country

Too many have died in protecting my pride
For me to go second class
We've survived a hard blow and I want you to know
That you'll face us at last
And I know you will give consideration
Shall we perish unjust or live equal as a nation?
This is my country

And I know you will give consideration
Shall we perish unjust or live equal as a nation?
This is my country
