I Am a Patriot

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous

Someday

I was walking with my brother and he wondered what's on my mind

I said, ?What I believe in my soul ain't what I see with my eyes

And we can't turn our backs this time?

I am a patriot and I love my county

Because my country is all I know

I want to be with my family people who understand me

I've got nowhere else to go

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous

Someday

And I was talking with my sister she looked so fine

I said, "Baby, what's on your mind?"

She said, "I want to run like the lion released from the cages

Released from the rages burning in my heart tonight", yeah

And I ain't no Communist and I ain't no Capitalist

And I ain't no Socialist and I ain't no Imperialist

And I ain't no Democrat so I ain't no Republican

I only know one party and it is freedom

I am, I am, I am

I am a patriot and I love my country

Because my county is all I know

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous

Someday

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous

And the river opens for the righteous
