Broken Promises, Broken Hearts by songwriter Edwin H. Balder
They woke at dawn, worked till the stars lit the sky,
Dreaming of better for my sister and I.
They saved for our schools, for our tools, for our climb,
They gave us their best, with their hearts on the line.
Generation by generation, the cycle begins,
Parents chasing dreams through thick and thin.
Faith in a future they could never see,
Building the road so their children live free.
But the rules keep changing, dreams fall apart,
Broken promises, broken hearts.
The ones in power twist the line,
Leaving hard-working folks further behind.
My wife and I worked with no days for rest,
Determined, devoted to give our kids the best.
We got them through school, gave them the tools,
But greed's new game tore apart the rules.
Now the rules keep changing, dreams fall apart,
Broken promises, broken hearts.
The ones in power twist the line,
Leaving hard-working folks further behind.
We climbed those hills with faith so blind,
Trusting in a country once so kind.
But now greed’s the leader, prosperity’s divide,
And hope feels so fragile for the ones who’ve tried.
The rules keep changing, dreams fall apart,
Broken promises, broken hearts.
The sweat of the many feeds the rise of the few,
But hope will remain if we see it through.
To my kids, I pray for a brighter sky,
For dreams to flourish, not wither and die.
We’ll keep climbing, keep fighting, no dreams will depart,
Even with broken promises, even with broken hearts.
Even with broken promises,  with broken hearts.
broken ......promises
broken ..........hearts.....broken ...hearts....broken ..........hearts.....broken ...hearts....

Atkins was the second most-played male artist of the decade overall. He has also sold over 13 million units and earned ten career Gold, Platinum and Multi-Platinum RIAA certifications to date, including his latest Gold-certified single, “Caught Up In The Country (feat.
