[Verse 1]
Shadows creep, heavy boots on cracked clay
Pockets full of nothin’, dreams locked away
Rusty fences whisper, winds won’t pray
Hope a broken mirror, shards cut, they stay
Hands in the dirt, soul wrestlin' the grime
Tickin' clocks laugh, stealin' all my time
A crow on the wire, caws somethin' divine
But the sky stays gray, no silver line
[Chorus]
Chains on my feet, wings in my heart
Torn apart, torn apart
Oh Lord, I’m callin’, light the dark
Chains on my feet, wings in my heart
[Verse 2]
Concrete jungle, roots fight for air
Breathin’ through the cracks, life ain’t fair
Got scars that preach, my sins they wear
Sins they wear, Lord, sins they wear
Sweat tastes bitter, tears feed the ground
Lost in the noise, but my soul wants the sound
Of choirs hummin’, trumpets resound
Till the walls fall down, till the walls fall down
[Chorus]
Chains on my feet, wings in my heart
Torn apart, torn apart
Oh Lord, I’m callin’, light the dark
Chains on my feet, wings in my heart
