[00:12.38]Album : Nothing Left To Lose (2006)
[00:12.77]
[00:14.04]My girl America is just a youth in this world
[00:16.13]Her smile is more precious than the sparkle of pearls
[00:18.83]And though her age reads she's just a young girl
[00:21.72]The age behind her eyes show the pain that she's swirled
[00:24.38]Through the hand that's been dealt though it's quiet as kept
[00:26.98]The weight that she felt last night when she slept
[00:29.54]And as she crept into the dreams of the things of her past
[00:32.19]Seems to have grown so fast, way beyond her own class
[00:34.57]Though they're right there with her, her brothers and her sisters
[00:37.36]A natural born leader even when her peers dis her
[00:40.30]My girl, she's at a crossroads, people praying for her
[00:43.38]Some are preying on her magazine ads, sex, drama
[00:45.30]Smoking marijuana, longer for a father to call her, 'daughter'
[00:48.57]She's part of a generation longing for reconciliation
[00:51.47]And this future that they're facing and this poison that they're tasting
[00:54.57]My girl, I know this love you're chasing
[00:56.32]
[00:57.00]
[00:57.56]My girl America's crying when she's lying on her bed at night
[01:02.00]I can see that she's screaming when she's dreaming for her freedom
[01:07.35]My girl America's dying while she's trying just to stop this fight
[01:12.85]Don't stop believing, my girl America
[01:17.42]
[01:17.86]Boys with hungry eyes have been beating her door
[01:19.85]Telling her that's what she's for, trying to rob at her core
[01:22.34]Then leave calling her a whore, but still she knows there's more
[01:25.42]I know she knows there's more because there is a voice she can't ignore
[01:28.43]'Cause it was founded in the foundations, from the day of her creation
[01:31.40]In God we trust engraved on the treasures of her nation
[01:34.05]And the void that the boys can't fill
[01:36.14]With the tipping of the bottle or the popping of the pill
[01:38.70]But still most of her friends don't care as they glare
[01:41.33]Ready to drown down the funnel as they frown down the tunnel
[01:43.92]They stumble and they tumble breaking down into rubble
[01:46.91]My girl America, stop can't you see
[01:49.04]It's not the circumstances that determine who you're gonna be
[01:52.57]But how you deal with these problems and pains that come your way
[01:56.02]It's for you that I pray with hope for a brighter day
[01:58.02]And so I say, your deliverance is coming
[02:00.32]
[02:00.56]
[02:00.88]My girl America's crying when she's lying on her bed at night
[02:06.13]I can see that she's screaming when she's dreaming for her freedom
[02:11.44]My girl America's dying while she's trying just to stop this fight
[02:16.93]Don't stop believing, my girl America
[02:21.62]
[02:22.62]Faith like a child from your first birth
[02:24.94]You left it in the dirt on your worst hurt
[02:27.45]And I see each tear and every scar
[02:30.53]The hands that have held you where you are
[02:32.90]And I can see we've strayed so far
[02:35.51]A king born under that morning star
[02:38.16]As a crown of thorns was placed to earase
[02:40.96]Each tear that's touched your face
[02:43.38]And his palms and sides were pierced with spears
[02:46.12]He hung in love just to draw you near
[02:48.92]My girl, out of this whole world
[02:51.62]Can't you see this is where we started?
[02:53.90]

[03:10.53]Don't stop believing, my girl America
[03:15.93]My girl America's crying when she's lying on her bed at night
[03:20.99]I can see that she's screaming when she's dreaming for her freedom
[03:26.34]My girl America's dying while she's trying just to stop this fight
[03:31.74]Don't stop believing, my girl America
