lyrics

I am a new-day American
I reach for the stars and burn my hands
I am a new-day American
Digging strawberry ditches in scorched lands

I hope I can’t ever afford nice things
So I’ll never be who you’ve been

I’ll break my back for a half home
My sweat and tears roll for the dollars I hold

Hope I die without a dime to my name
Buskin’ out in the streets, no care for fame

Hope I die by a woman I love
Some sweet natured girl sent from God on above

Till then I hope I learn to live a little more
Instead of staring at a screen, every moment a chore

Hope I learn to love myself a little more
In my old hoodies and the dirty shoes I wore

In the box of dusty photos I can’t un-see
In the younger evangelical scared me

And I hope I learn to give a little more
Something greater than the self as the only reward

I don’t need a single material thing
Just give me love, grace, and somewhere to be

Hope I die without a dime to my name
Buskin’ out in the streets, no care for fame
