Hey, that turned out to be an easy one. I went to www.google.come and searched for "millions of people living shoulder to shoulder" (in quote marks to get an exact phrase). Can't say who wrote or recorded it, however. I found it here (click) - watch out, there's an embedded WAV file that plays, or maybe you can download it here (right-click to download).

PROUD
(Teresa Jennings)
Billions of people living shoulder to shoulder
filling our planet, growing older and older.
Watching the same sun. Feeling the same wind blowing.
We are different and yet we're all the same.
Billions of faces, billions of names; were magical.
Like the snowflakes falling to the earth; individual.

Oh, I am proud of who I am. Proud of what I am.
Proud of where I'm goin'. Proud of what I'm doin'.
My life is my life. I have the power to be!
I can reach my own brass ring and pull it for me.

Billions of people living billions of stories.
Billions of lives with all our mystical glories.
Tracing the same stars; watching our own stars glowing.
I am one in my own right, following through.
I am unique in all that I do; original.q
Like the footprints forming in the sand: individual.

Oh, I am proud of who I am. Proud of what I am.
Proud of where I'm goin'. Proud of what I'm doin'.
My life is my life. I have the power to be!
I can reach my own brass ring and pull it for me.

Oh, yes, I'm proud of who I am. Proud of what I am.
Proud of where I'm goin'. Proud of what I'm doin'.
My life is my life. I have the power to be!
I can reach my own brass ring and pull it for me.

PROUD!!
