Album title meaning

Frontman Rick DeJesus spoke with The Pulse of Radio about the significance of the title. "I've seen through the eyes of so many people, from my friends to just my peers, myself, everyone — at some point, you know, they feel stuck in life, they feel like their feet are in the mud," he said. "You know, they feel like they're trying to pull out and trying to move forward and trying to grow, and just sometimes you can't."{{Cite web|title=Adelitas Way-Stuck (Album Review)|url=http://www.unsungmelody.com/album-reviews/adelitas-way-stuck-album-review/|publisher=Unsungmelody.com|accessdate=September 20, 2015}}
