[Intro]
🎶
Ain’t got a crown and I don’t need one,
Ain’t got a kingdom beneath the sun.
Just got my word and the blood in my veins,
And that’s enough to make a man dangerous.

[Verse 1]
🎶
Raised where the storms hit hard every year,
Learned real young you survive through fear.
The swamp don’t care what your last name is,
Only if you stand when the levee breaks.
I seen good men rise and proud men fall,
Watched greed build kingdoms and destroy ‘em all.
That’s why I trust the folks beside me more,
Than any throne behind a palace door.
🎶

[Hook]
🎶
LOYAL to my people and the ground I stand on,
LETHAL when the fight come and the danger roll on.
CAJUN born, swamp-raised to the bone,
No matter where I wander, Louisiana my home.
LOYAL.
LETHAL.
CAJUN.
🎶
⸻
[Verse 2]
🎶
Got mud on my boots and scars on my skin,
Every one of ‘em tell where I’ve been.
Through war drums, firelight, dust and rain,
Still carry the bayou in my name.
The world get cold, the road get long,
That’s when you learn what makes you strong.
Not gold, not power, not fame in the end—
Just the people you call family and friend.
🎶
⸻
[Bridge]
🎶
The river taught patience.
The storm taught grit.
The swamp taught survival.
And I’m still livin’ it.
The river taught patience.
The storm taught grit.
The swamp taught survival.
And I ain’t quittin’ it.
🎶
⸻
[Final Hook]
🎶
LOYAL to my people and the ground I stand on,
LETHAL when the fight come and the danger roll on.
CAJUN born, swamp-raised to the bone,
No matter where I wander, Louisiana my home.
LOYAL.
LETHAL.
CAJUN.
LOYAL.
LETHAL.
CAJUN.
🎶

[Outro]
🎶
When the last fire fades and the war drums cease,
May they say I stood my ground and kept my peace.
🎶
[War horn sounds once as the fiddle carries the melody into the distance]
