Got Shot and stabbed swimming in the streets of the broken glass city of the 4 1 9 was baptized in the muddy Waters of the Maumee river
Broke hearts and got my Heart broken wish I'd stayed in line wish I'd walked the line
The Mud of the Maumee river is thick I’m sinking deep quick
Wanna fly away no time to weep no time to sleep
Cruising around the old neighbor hood I use to roam no one to be found noone home,reminiscing memories of brothers sent to the penitentiary never coming home brothers hooked on dope and those that lost life's in the streets of the broken glass city of the 4 1 9
Lost loves lost lifes lost souls echo off of the bricks names edge in stone in decayed streets Carrying memories through the pain on a two wheel steal horse dressed out in chrome knocking on memories door ain't nobody home
Dying lights in the midnight sky
Prayers I whisper as the days go by
Broken hearts and shattered dreams lost love lost souls lost life's echos off of decaying bricks of the broken glass city of the 4 1 9
Life ain't always what it seems
Gonna rise above this pain and strife
Fly away from the muddy waters of the maumee river to a better life
Saw to many tears fall like crazy rain
Every scar another mark of pain
Silence speaks where words have none
Echoes linger from a loaded gun
Broken hearts and shattered dreams
Life ain't always what it seems
Gonna rise above this pain and strife a Phoenix
Flying from the muddy Waters of the Maumee river of the broken glass city of the 4 1 9
No more shadows haunting me my demons left behind
In the stars I'll finally be free
Through the fire I'll soar so high
Spread these wings and touch the sky and fly away from the Muddy waters of the Maumee river to a better life
