Stand For My Flag

Boots in the dirt

Sweat on my hands

I don't need perfect

I just need a stand

You spit on the grave

Of people you never knew

Scroll past their names

Like they died for you

I stand for my flag

I kneel for my cross

I carry these scars

And I count the cost

You can scream in my face

You can call me wrong

I stand for my flag

Yeah

I'm holding strong (holding strong)

You burn what they raised

Then preach about love

Talk like you're brave

From a screen and a glove

My granddad's picture

Faded in its frame

He bled in a place

You can't spell by name

I stand for my flag

I kneel for my cross

I carry these scars

And I count the cost

You can scream in my face

You can call me wrong

I stand for my flag

Yeah

I'm holding strong (hey!)

This ain't hate

It's history

It's a line drawn down in me

You don't have to understand

But you won't rip it from my hands (no way)

I stand for my flag

I kneel for my cross

I carry these scars

And I count the cost

You can scream in my face

You can call me wrong

I stand for my flag

Till the day I'm gone
