Fly Away from The Mud

Cruzin around the old neighborhood I use ta roam, reminiscin about the time when I about drowned,Got Shot an stabbed swimmin 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 an got my Heart broken a time or two, wish I'd stayed in line, wish I'd walked the line,wish I could go back in time, rewind ta the past rewind time an reclaim the days, reclaim the nights.reclaim lost time,reclaim time passed,make up for time passed,cruzin around the old neighborhood I used ta roam, reminiscin as time passes by,I wanna fly away from the muddy Waters of the Maumee river ta a better life,The Mud of the Maumee river is thick I’m sinkin deep quick

I Wanna fly away no time ta weep , no time ta pass,no time ta sleep

Cruzin around the old neighbor hood I use ta roam, no one ta be found, noone home, reminiscin, memories of brothers sent ta the penitentiary never comin home, brothers hooked on dope an those that lost lives in the streets of the broken glass city of the 4 1 9,

Lost loves, lost lives, lost souls echo off of bricks, names edged in stone, cruzin around the old neighborhood I use ta roam in decayed streets Carryin memories through the pain on a two wheel steal horse dressed out in chrome, knockin on memories door, ain't nobody home, knuckles are soar, can't knock anymore,

Dying lights in the midnight sky

Prayers I whisper as the day goes by turning in ta night

Broken hearts an shattered dreams,life ain't what it seems, it seems ta be, lost loves , lost lives, lost souls echo off of decayin bricks, names edged in stone, in the broken glass city of the 4 1 9

Life ain't what it seems it seems ta be,

Gonna rise above this pain an strife

An Fly away from the mud of the muddy Maumee River ta a better life, [ guitar Solo ].................I saw too many tears fall like crazy rain

Every scar is another mark of pain I can't out run

Silence speaks where words have none

Echos linger from a loaded gun, knife wounds heal,scars linger on

Broken hearts an shattered dreams

Life ain't what it seems ta be,it seems ta be,...

Gonna rise above this pain an strife, a Phoenix

Flying from the mud of the Maumee river,dust, devils an dreams left behind, no more shadows an ink hauntin me, no more link my soul set free,

In the stars I'll finally be

Through the fire I'll soar so high never lookin down, cruzin around the old neighborhood I use ta roam,

I wanna Spread these wings an touch the sky an fly away from the Muddy waters of the Maumee river to a better life, I wanna fly away from the mud.....the mud of the Maumee river is thick, I'm sinkin- deep quick, cruzin around the old neighborhood I use ta roam, no time ta weep no time ta pass,no time ta sleep, I wanna fly away from the mud of the Maumee River,[ Fading guitar- solo ].......................[ Slow-Deep weathered vocals] " I wanna fly away from the mud of the Maumee river of the broken glass city of the 4 1 9, ta a better life ".......
