Below, you will find the lyrics for America by Imagine Dragons.
Verse 1
Is this just an illusion
That i made inside my head to get me by?
Twenty years in debt
Twenty years in the government
Twenty years can never get me by
Chorus 1
And i feel you close
Feel you close like you wanted me to
Feel you close
Like you wanted me to
Believe in you
Rise to the top of the world
America, america, don't you cry
Lift me up
Give me strength to press on
Rise to the top of the world
America, america, don't you cry
Lift me up
Give me strength to press on
Verse 2
From farmers in the fields
To the tallest of the towers that fall and rise
1-7-7-6, the names upon the list
For all the ones who gave until they died
Don't you hold back
I can see in your mind, and your mind will set you free
Chorus 2
And i feel you close
Feel you close like you wanted me to
Feel you close
Like you wanted me to
Believe in you
Rise to the top of the world
America, america, don't you cry
Lift me up
Give me strength to press on
Rise to the top of the world
America, america, don't you cry
Lift me up
Give me strength to press on
Chorus 3
Rise to the top of the world
America, america, don't you cry
Lift me up
Give me strength to press on
Rise to the top of the world
America, america, don't you cry
Lift me up
Give me strength to press on
