Rose In A Concrete World - Joe

Yeah, this one goes out to all the lost loved ones
That's right, no ohh, no, no, throw your hands in the air
No, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

We were like soldiers, shoulder to shoulder
Back to back against the wall
Always there to catch me if I would fall

If I was in trouble, when you was in trouble
Never gave a damn if I was wrong or right
Never backed down if we had a fight

Now you've gone away
Always thought that you'd be here to stay
See you on the other side, we will ride again

We would ride like the wind on the stairways of sin
I can't believe all the wrong would turn
Now that you're gone, how can I go on?
You were a rose in a concrete world

No no, no no
No no, no no, no no, no

Ghetto to ghetto, it's the meadow to meadow
Tryin' to survive day to day
Livin' crazy was the only way

You were my strength when I was weak
Young and gifted, you were unique
You were far too good for this world, oh

Now you've gone away
Always thought that you'd be here to stay
See you on the other side, we will ride again

We would ride like the wind on the stairways of sin
I can't believe all the wrong would turn
Now that you're gone, how can I go on?
You were a rose in a concrete world

We would ride like the wind on the stairways of sin
I can't believe all the wrong would turn
Now that you're gone, how can I go on?
You were a rose in a concrete world

Break it down, oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh no no
No no no, no no no no

Now you've gone away
Always thought that you'd be here to stay
See you on the other side, we will ride again

We would ride like the wind on the stairways of sin
I can't believe all the wrong would turn
Now that you're gone, how can I go on?
You were a rose in a concrete world

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
No no no, no no, no no, no no
Oh oh oh
No no no, no no no, no no
