This is sort of a social justice song, talking about the mistreatment of people, religious hypocrisy, and vengeance.

Concrete
by Ryan Vegh

I lie here on the concrete
Broken, broken, crack, crack, snap, ouch!
I lie here on the concrete
And I cannot move
...And you pass me by!

"Sir! Sir!"
Look at me lying on the filthy, cold floor,
Covered in pestilence,
No shelter from the elements

"Isn't there anything you could do for me?
Oh, please! Please!"
Give me just a crumb to chew on
I'm not sure how long I'll go on

"Oh nooo! I cannot help you,
My dear anomaly
I'm upperclass
Here, chew on this glass
And die a quicker death for me
Smile!"

I lie here on the concrete
Broken, broken, crack, crack, snap, ouch!
I lie here on the concrete
And I'm angry now
...And you walk away!

"Sir! Sir!
I know you hate me, since you show it so well
You've got a prideful mind,
Wouldn't care if I up and died

"I had thought you religious people were actually kind
But you... Seriously?"
I see your face and my fist is calling
If I could stand then I'd send you falling

"Hahaha! What? Is this some kind of joke?
You're a pitiful freak
And as far as I can see
You don't have the strength to even poke
Bye now!"

I lie here on the concrete
Broken, broken, crack, crack, snap, ouch!
I lie here on the concrete
And that's all I can do
...And I fade away

Ha-oh, ohh...
We always find so many things to criticize
And we always try to be on the right side
But don't we know there's more than our own way
And don't we know there's a coming final day
Justice will be served; don't you worry...
