[Intro]
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
[Verse 1]
We were like soldiers, shoulder to shoulder
Back to back, up 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
[Pre-Chorus]
Flash, I’m gone away
Always thought that you would be here to stay
See you on the other side
We will ride again
[Chorus]
We would ride like the wind
On the steel wheels of soul
I can't believe how the road would turn
Now that you're gone
How can I go on?
You’re a rose in a concrete world
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
[Verse 2]
Ghetto to ghetto, stiletto to metal
Trying to survive on a day-to-day
Living 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
[Pre-Chorus]
Flash, I’m gone away
Always thought that you would be here to stay
See you on the other side
We will ride again
[Chorus]
We would ride like the wind
On the steel wheels of soul
I can't believe how the road would turn
Now that you're gone
How can I go on?
You’re a rose in a concrete world
We would ride like the wind
On the steel wheels of soul
I can't believe how the road would turn
Now that you're gone
How can I go on?
You’re a rose in a concrete world
[Breakdown]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Flash, I’m gone away
Always thought that you would be here to stay
See you on the other side
We will ride again
[Chorus]
We would ride like the wind
On the steel wheels of soul
I can't believe how the road would turn
Now that you're gone
How can I go on?
You’re a rose in a concrete world
We would ride like the wind
On the steel wheels of soul
I can't believe how the road would turn
Now that you're gone
How can I go on?
You’re a rose in a concrete world
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
[Outro]
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no no, oh, oh, oh
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
La da da da da da, oh
La da da da da da, oh
La da da da da da, oh
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
