Concrete Dreams

(yeah) (listen close)

In the streets where we learn corruption Deceit right under your feet

so we walk blind Never knowing who we'll meet in these heavy

streets

We were only seventeen chasing big bright ideas Meeting characters in alleys

masking all of their fears They offer shortcuts to the top of

the tower Trading your integrity for a moment of power But the

cost is heavy and the debt gets deep Hard to hold your

head up high when you can barely sleep (think about it)

In the streets where we learn corruption Deceit right under your feet

so we walk blind Never knowing who we'll meet in these heavy

streets

Fast money in the palm of a hand that you shouldn't trust

Turned our childhood dreams directly into ash and dust Every smiling face

has a motive behind the grin Hard to separate the savior from

the original sin Now we're watching our backs in the middle of

the day Reevaluating every single word that they say (watch your step)

Watch the company you keep (yeah) In these heavy streets
