Concrete Dreams

[Verse] Dusty roads old dreams crumble down Concrete trucks rollin' through this town Land of green now gray steel lines Rise up higher take the sky [Verse 2] Neon lights reflections in cracked glass Silent nights ain't never gonna last Steel bones layin' in the earth's facade Blueprints drawn god's got a new yard [Chorus] Building up a fortress for cars and wheels Concrete dreams under southern heels From dirt to sky we'll claim the land Stone and steely iron hand [Verse 3] Gravel shifts dust coats my shoes Sweat and swears echoin' on cue Jackhammers sing in the dawning light Builders fight through sleepless nights [Bridge] Old barns torn down progress calls Parking deck's the new skyline tall Ghosts of fields haunt these grounds Change rolls in no way to slow it down [Verse 4] Morning dew kissed by sun’s kiss Columns rise shadow and bliss Ashes of past now built on speed Cars to rest where green used to breathe
