American indie-rock band American Authors return with a brand new single titled “Pride”.
The folk-influences song is the first single from their upcoming second studio album which is expected to be released during the first quarter of 2016.

About the video, the frontman Zac Barnett said: “”We shot the video for Pride in Denver, Colorado not only because of the amazing landscape but also our incredibly talented videographer friends are based there. Together we wanted to show that life’s journey has ups and downs and different paths that take us where we want to go. We all have to cross bridges and climb mountains and take the road less traveled to become who we are in the world.”

Lyrics:

My home don’t feel the same
Last year flew by; goodbye to the good vibes
What we thought were the best times
Nights out with the people I love
Now I’m lost in the neighborhood
That raised me, praised me, made me who I am
But my father was twice the man
And now that pain’s resurfacing

Brooklyn don’t feel the same
Maybe I’m the one who’s changed or the one to blame
Another drink down the drain
Ten more before I get on that plane
I swear I knew just what to say
It’s all there on the tip of my tongue
But I don’t feel good enough for anyone

But I won’t fold
I know cause I-I-I-I got this feeling

I ain’t never giving up, I ain’t never ever, I ain’t never ever giving up my pride
I ain’t never letting go, I ain’t never ever, I ain’t never ever gonna sell my soul
I-I-I-I got this feeling
I-I-I got this feeling
I ain’t never giving up, I ain’t never ever, I ain’t never ever giving up my pride

Pushed out of the family tree
Upside down, but it was a good life
I fell hard for the wine in France
I didn’t call you back cause I was learning to dance
And just who I’d become
It’s all there on the tip of my tongue
Wish I was good enough for anyone

No, I won’t fold
I know cause I-I-I-I got this feeling

I ain’t never giving up, I ain’t never ever, I ain’t never ever giving up my pride
I ain’t never letting go, I ain’t never ever, I ain’t never ever gonna sell my soul
I-I-I-I got this feeling
I-I-I got this feeling
I ain’t never giving up, I ain’t never ever, I ain’t never ever giving up my pride

Take or leave who I am
Cause this is me

Like a fish out of water
Do I belong here?
But I’m never gonna lose, I’m never giving up my pride
I’m lost in the ocean
Like a note in a bottle
But I’m never gonna lose, I’m never giving up my pride

This is me, who I am

I ain’t never giving up, I ain’t never ever, I ain’t never ever giving up my pride
I ain’t never letting go, I ain’t never ever, I ain’t never ever gonna sell my soul
I-I-I-I got this feeling
I-I-I got this feeling
I ain’t never giving up, I ain’t never ever, I ain’t never ever giving up my pride

Take or leave who I am
Cause this is me
