Текст песни America - Michael Patrick Kelly

Touching ground on Ellis Island
Searching for the promised land
Am I a legal alien coming home?

50 steps to win my freedom
Pushing to the golden fever
Running through your maze of steel and stone

Somewhere between your stars and stripes
I think I see dawn's early light
Where is the love? Now let it rise, let it rise
America, America
Wake up, wake up, wake up
All your hopes and dreams
America, America
Stand up, stand up, stand up
For what you believe
Tell me, will you keep your promise?
I have come to find the solace
Glowing in your flame of liberty

Even though you got your demons
In the end, your better angels
Always change the course of history

Somewhere between your stars and stripes
I still can see dawn's early light
Where is the love? Now let it rise, let it rise

America, America
Wake up, wake up, wake up
All your hopes and dreams
America, America
Stand up, stand up, stand up
For what you believe

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Wake up, wake up, wake up
All your hopes and dreams

Somewhere between your stars and stripes
I still can see dawn's early light
Bring back the love, now let it rise, let it rise
America, America
Wake up, wake up, wake up
All your hopes and dreams
America, America
Stand up, stand up, stand up
For what you believe
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Wake up, wake up, wake up
All your hopes and dreams

America, America
Wake up, wake up, wake up
All your hopes and dreams
America, America
Stand up, stand up, stand up
For what you believe
