Mississippi Martian - No Turning Back Lyrics

A knife buried in our backs
Has sent this train right off the tracks
Civil war has its price tag:
A nation divided under many flags
Red versus brown versus white versus black
Versus those refusing to take a step back
Open your eyes. Step over the cracks
Defend yourselves. You're under attack
As we stand here hand in hand
I hope it's not our final stand
We'll run the traitors from our lands
More quickly than they crept
There is no turning back for me
The past is soaked in gasoline
What once was us, a memory
Faded and inept
Crooked fingers always pointing
Looking for reasons, for anything
To grab the eagle and tear off its wings
As liberty screams, they silence her ring
Rich versus poor versus king versus queen
Versus everyone else who wants everything
Haven't we learned? Haven't we seen
That we are all people regardless of gleam
As we stand here hand in hand
I hope it's not our final stand
We'll run the traitors from our lands
More quickly than they crept
There is no turning back for me
The past is soaked in gasoline
What once was us, a memory
Faded and inept
As fear and confusion shower us
Weakness combines with cowardice
Greed and hatred devour us
Only love can empower us
As fear and confusion shower us
Weakness combines with cowardice
Greed and hatred devour us
Only love can empower us
