Where I'm From

I am from Da U,
from the sea of red and Carolina blue,
I am from the hated place,
from the taste and aroma of winning,
I am from work and the strive to be greater than we were yesterday,
from the practice to the freshly cut green game field.

I am from 2257 students,
from “only having money”,
I am from clean fresh facilities,
from two campus high,
I am from a “college” campus...
from south to north.

I am from battling day all play,
from there's others if you mess up,
I am from the competitive school,
from in one week…out the next,
I am from practice,
from time and dripping tears.

I am from dedication,
from not caring about other schools,
I am from devoted AHS,
from never quitting,
I am from the sea of red and Carolina blue,
from Da U.
