<human>: I came here when i was 11 (in 2005) I'm 17 now. I came here legally but my Visa expired in like 2009 and I'm now an *Alien*. I want a job and car but i need papers for all that. Let me get to the point. In 2010 my neighbor had a fire while we weren't home (Apartment building) and we had the passports and all those important stuff in a paper box in the closet. (I know, not the best idea)The fire came through that closet. Wasn't that bad but clothes and most of our stuff was gone. Half of my Passport is ash, my birth certificate is untouched. Let's call it luck. I don't want to go back to my country to renew my passport because they wont let me back into the US. I've already been here 1+ year illegally. They wont me back in for 30years? 1 year illegally is 10 years. I've been here almost 4 now. Can i become or apply for citizenship with just a birth certificate?

Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?
