Oh, my city lies in dust
My head’s about to bust from all the smoke
Oh, my back’s about to break
I took all I could take, not anymore
Deep in the dark night, I hold my pillow tight
Dream of a better place, of a better life
Oh, my friends they are lost
Some I can trust, some I don’t
Oh, my family has fled
Left me for dead by the road
Deep in the dark night, I hold my pillow tight
Dream of a better place, of a better life
I won’t let go
I won’t lose hope
I won’t let go
I won’t stand down
