Since then, she has released two albums. The first was Genuine in 2000, created at the young age of fourteen. The album produced the hit single "Don't Look At Me" which topped Christian charts for ten consecutive weeks. Her next effort, the more mainstream and self-titled Stacie Orrico, was released in 2003 and charted in the U.S. Billboard Top 200, Australian ARIAnet and the United Kingdom albums charts. The first single from this album was "Stuck", which became a worldwide hit making it into the Top 5 or Top 10 of the majority of the world's charts. This was followed by the single "(There's Gotta Be) More To Life", which also charted and went top 20 in Australia and the UK. "More To Life" failed to do as well as "Stuck" but still became a hit in many countries. This was then followed by "I Promise" (top 30 in the UK), and the last single "I Could Be The One" (top 40 in the UK on June 2004). Both singles were given limited releases and limited promotion, so it is understandable that they didn't fare as well as the first two singles did.
Genuine sold over 13,000 copies in the first week, the highest debut week sales ever for a female Christian artist. Genuine sold 500,000 copies, giving the album Gold certification. Her sophomore effort, Stacie Orrico, debuted at #67 on the Billboard 200 and sold over 500,000 copies in the U.S., also good for Gold certification. "Stacie Orrico" also sold 600,000 in Japan and an estimated 2.5 million copies worldwide.
Stacie Orrico's fourth album(including her Christmas album), "Beautiful Awakening",featuring the hit single "I'm Not Missing You," was released August(2006)in Europe and Asia and was due release for Jan. 2007 in North America. However the album has not yet been released in North America, and it's uncertain whether a release date will be given at this point.

Stacie Orrico Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Heard you got the news today
Seems nothin' ever goes your way, oh no
Yesterday was a, okay
Now today you're feelin' like you're lost
Oh
And he say, she say (she say)
She's too young, there's no way (there's no way)
But who cares what they say
Cause no one can judge you at all
Its not about who's right or who's wrong
[Chorus]
Babygirl take it one day at a time
You can't just grow up overnight
Babygirl I know you're feelin' butterflies
But everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everybody seems to notice you
Cause you're not really tryin' to hide a thing
Sometimes you're cool
Sometimes your mood swings
No baggy shirts to hide the change, no shame
Nobody to lie to, to pry with what's inside of you
And he say, she say
She's too grown
Poor thing, all on her own
But who cares what they say
Cause no one can judge you at all
It's not who's right or who's wrong
Girl you're not alone
[Chorus]
[Repeat: x2]
So when you're feelin' like life's too cold
Don't lose faith, just move on
Hold on baby it's worth the flight
And everything's gonna be alright
[Chorus: x2]
This song is dedicated to all the single parents
All you young girls strugglin', all on your own
You're courageous and you're beautiful
And this song is for you

The chorus encourages the listener to take things one day at a time and not rush to grow up too quickly
Everybody seems to notice you
People are paying attention to you and your situation
Cause you're not really tryin' to hide a thing
You're not hiding anything and being authentic
Sometimes you're cool
Sometimes you have it under control
Sometimes your mood swings
Other times you may feel more emotional
No baggy shirts to hide the change, no shame
You're not trying to hide the physical and emotional changes you're going through
Nobody to lie to, to pry with what's inside of you
You don't have to pretend or explain yourself to anyone
She's too grown
Some people think you're too mature or grown up too fast
Poor thing, all on her own
Some people pity you for being on your own
It's not who's right or who's wrong
Again, what matters is not who's right or wrong
Girl you're not alone
You're not alone and others are there to support you
[Chorus]

And everything's gonna be alright
Everything will eventually be okay
