A Youthful Girl In Cold War Part 2

I shouldn't have to feel like this
Why I'm treated as property
I'm crying inside but I'm filled with pride
Jealousy, I'm never scared
I''m still focused, only ready to win
My critics will always doubt me In the end

I'm just a youthful girl in cold war
they won't bring me down
I know my value, I'm God's precious jewel
I refuse to let someone overrule
I'm just a youthful girl in cold war

Why is everyone trying to catch me
When I tell them about my problems
Trust me, I won't fall
Besides me and you, there's people in need

Too much rank, too much going wrong
The U.S. is a big party, don't anyone seem to care
I plan to share, but there is only suffering
The world is at misery
Father's and children at war
All a mother could do is cry

I'm just a youthful girl in cold war
they won't bring me down
I know my value, I'm God's precious jewel
I refuse to let someone overrule
I'm just a youthful girl in cold war

Why is it only little on people's mind
We only up for our own kind
Still war on poverty east and west
Take the time out to pray for our people in New Orleans
I don't bother to look at the news
Its just confusion, we'll never know what goes on behind closed doors

I'm just a youthful girl in cold war
they won't bring me down
I know my value, I'm God's precious jewel
I refuse to let someone overrule
I'm just a youthful girl in cold war
