Flowers in Concrete Songtext
von Heresy

Like flowers growing in concrete
There′s only so far we can reach (let me tell ya now!)

Over the years we've pulled together
Looked at our options and stayed clever
And watched many directions taken
And a mountain of integrity forsaken

Constant changes all around us
Do we just mirror the society that surrounds us?
As we draw strength from each other
With this spirit we have discovered

We had to change the game - change the game
It′s not just more of the same - more of the same


Some laugh and leave their sinking ship
Part of an iceberg of ignorance - the visible tip
That hits us hard and we escape at best
But when that ice has melted it drifts out with the rest

But like flowers in concrete
There's only so far we can reach
Do the best with what we've got
Because a foothold is ever a lot (that′s right - it′s not)

We have to realize who we are
We can only grow and go so far
And don't fool yourself otherwise
′Cos in time you'll realize (the reason to expand)

So we stay on underground
With this spirit we′ve found
And our golds are in sight
But changes won't happen overnight (unless we make it right)
