lyrics

Verse 1:
The daughter of a child
Raised by the sea
Has yet to know
All she can be

She watched her mother
Mend her heart
With many men
Till she fell apart

This child tried
The best she could
To find a boy
Who understood

He took her hand
And swore a lie
Until she opened up her thighs

When she went to the doctor
People screamed and rocks were thrown
They wanted a child
To have a child of her own

Chorus:
All the fear you give
And all the faith you hold
Is heavy on her heavy heart of gold
All your virtue and strong beliefs
WRAPPED UP in her destiny

Verse 2:
Mama's strict
But freedoms here
She’s on her own
It’s freshman year

Studies hard
And gets the grades
It’s Friday
Time to celebrate

A charming boy
Who warms her up
Puts her choice
In a solo cup

On a red light
He passes go
She didn’t say yes or no

Pre-chorus:
And when she talked to her mother
She was shamed and she was blamed
Nine months later
A child was born without a name

Chorus:
All the fear you give
And all the faith you hold
Is heavy on her heavy heart of gold
All her hard work and all her dreams
WRAPPED UP in her destiny

Verse 3:
A woman on her own
Works day and night
With six mouths to feed
The money’s tight

She never cried
Or wanted more
Forgot her dreams
So long before

Her ex shows up
With one desire
One night to
Rekindle fire

He left her there
With bills to pay
And one more child on the way

Pre-chorus:
And when she looked at her options
She’d have to drive all through the night
She drank till she bled
Now six mouths will go unfed

Chorus:
All the fear you give
All the faith you hold
Is heavy on her heavy heart of gold
You’re wide awake, she’s fast asleep
WRAPPED UP in her destiny

Outro:
There’s things a hateful eye can’t see
Love don’t judge and peace don’t scream
Mind your own destiny
