Lyrics:
Lift your voice and say I’m proud
Proud of my history
Lift your voice and say I’m proud
Proud of my history
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Looking back at history
See the many contributions from the Black community
Like discovering new medicine
Dr. Percy Julian
A great scientist, you could be one too
Take a look up high in the sky,
Bessie Coleman learned to fly.
There’s no limit to the things we can do.
Peace, love and equality is what we all sing
And it started with a dream from Dr. Martin Luther King
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Many dreams that we can chase
Like Katherine Johnson used her math
To help reach outer space.
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
You can be a great champion
Muhammed Ali.
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
To learn about the past
Will teach you more about you.
Become a literary genius,
James Baldwin, Maya Angelou
Just like George Carver used his wits to invent
Lead like Barack Obama
The first Black president.
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Remember this and so much more,
Just read a book and you will see
There’s plenty to explore.
So stand up tall, with head held high
Let me hear you say it loud
Not just in February, all year I am proud.
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
Proud of my history
(I am)
Proud of my history
(So proud)
Proud of my history
Proud of my Black history
