apologetix - i can't go back lyrics
[verse 1]
there’s a story on my mind
turn the page to john, you’ll find
now in chapter 6, go read
verse 61+69
[pre+chorus 1]
i can see the temple when he talks
his appeal demands our faith
preachin’ how we broke god’s laws
[verse 2]
i’ve been told about the christ
i’ve been searchin’ for him, too ++ have you?
i’ve known the bible all my life
today the stories all came true
[pre+chorus 2]
can you hear them grumble when he talks?
can you feel the friends of hate?
even now they throw some rocks
give god a fair chance, wait
[chorus 1]
i can’t go back ++ i won’t renege
i can’t go back!
your choice is yours ++ but mine i’ve made
i can’t go back ++ i want that crown
’cause it’s foolish to turn that down
[instrumental break feat. electric guitar]
[verse 3]
i’ve known a few that stopped ++ no lie
but then a guy named simon speaks for you and i
and now that simon’s turn has past
don’t waste your own ++ be strong, hold fast
[pre+chorus 3]
i can feel a trend that scares me much
can i be a man of faith
if the crowd opposes us?
[verse 4]
there’s assurance in my mind
turned to faith that god designed
now it’s time to make folks see
though a rugged path i’ll find
[chorus 2]
i can’t go back ++ i won’t renege
i can’t go back!
the choice is plain ++ in spite of death
i can’t go back ++ i want that crown
’cause it’s foolish to turn that down
[pre+chorus 3]
i could be a criminal and be crushed
ooo … yet i feel a stand+up faith
reachin’ out to bolster us
there’s stuff the world can’t take
[outro]
i can’t go back!
i can’t go back!
i can’t go back!
i can’t go back!
