"My People" by Demun Jones

My People by: Demun Jones
Produced by: Jared Sciullo (Phivestarr)

Track# 7 on the album 'Southern Son'

lyrics:
This one's for the house
blastin outta your speaker
brought y'all a new anthem
and I'm gonna hold it down for my people
my people roll diesel
crank it up and get loud enough
that they hear enough from a mile
y'all are my people

I got tires to rotate and steel to weld
back the truck up drill the well
don't sweat the bills when in God we trust
I can't even feel when my knuckles bust
cause I'm on the grind locked in
4 low hub C10
all I can see is these mouse to feed
you ain't helping please miss me then
no stall or stoppin' til we top the wall
raise the walk board I'm gonna lay them all
from can to can't we build and paint
and when you turn the key you got to pay me dog
then it to the next episode
pack the gear up rock 'n' roll
sure enough the crew shows up the foundations laid
and it goes up

This one's for the house
blastin outta your speaker
brought y'all a new anthem
and I'm gonna hold it down for my people
my people roll diesel
crank it up and get loud enough
that they hear enough from a mile
y'all are my people

Calloused hands badge of honor
I wear with my blue collar
blood spilt sweat tears shed
work overtime for that blue dollar
cold wind storm rain thunder
hot sunny heat index 100
elbow grease and no sunscreen
just back aches and that caffeine
to keep going and we go cause
that's the way that we know
taking pride in every nail we drive
every board every nut and bolt
my people my people
didn't learn a lot in school but
the job site was our classroom
a belt bag and a box of tools
