America Lyrics by Michael Patrick Kelly

B.O.A.T.S (Extended Edition)

2021

[Verse 1]
Touching ground on Ellis Island
Searching for the promised land
Am I a legal alien coming home?
Fifty steps to win my freedom
Pushing to the golden fever
Running through your maze of steel and stone
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
Tell me, will you keep your promise?
I have come to find the solace glowing in your flame of liberty
Even though you've got your demons
In the end, your better angels always change the course of history
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
Woah-oh-oh (Woah-oh-oh)
Woah-oh-oh (Woah-oh-oh)
Wake up, wake up, wake up all your hopes and dreams
[Pre-Chorus]
Somewhere between your stars and stripes
I think I see dawn's early light
Bring back the love now
Let it rise, let it rise
[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
Woah-oh-oh (Woah-oh-oh)
Woah-oh-oh (Woah-oh-oh)
Wake up, wake up, wake up all your hopes and dreams
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
America, America
Wake up, wake up all your hopes and dreams
America, America
Stand up, stand up for what you believe
