Stateside - Hussey

As I’m worried about my thirties

My kids sit in jail

Was strong because they have to

Their bodies go through hell

Feel bad but then I don’t

'Cause they were raised by better souls

Twice my age and withered away

I’m relatively close to okay

I don’t believe but I’d do it for you

Whatever you need to relieve you of you

If some higher power is all that you need

In my eyes it’s you, you’re the god that you seek

I was worried about my twenties

My family just moved on

The truth became outstanding to me

It’s harder to be strong

Never wanted to cause the trouble

I guess I craved to be my own

The thing that made me happy

To shake you off

Is the thing that saved you after all

I wish I’d rooted for you from the start

I wrote you off for a moment at first

It broke me just thinking how you sobered up

Who cares of what fashion just glad you’re with us

As I watched you join the race

Of everyone who took a right

I hear it tucked away in your voice sometimes

But you tell it doesn’t hide

And maybe you got here later

But for all that you’ve missed out

The twenties were just some wandering around

The thirties were all a bout
