lyrics

I don't wanna look back now
Even if the sky falls down
I don't wanna meet the wind that might just turn these sails around
Even when the sign says no
I’ll find another way to go
Till I settle back on solid ground
When the outside world tells you it’s all over
But your insides know there’s much more to do
when the weight’s more than what fits on your shoulder
You’ll press on cause there’s nothing left to lose

I don't know which way we’re facing
Heaven or earth’s invitation
Only a moment of greatness’s
All I need and all I'm asking for
Hoping that we're not mistaken
And these aren't windmills we're chasing
History here in the making’s
All I need and all I'm asking for

Got me starrin’ in the darkess
but I’m going in regardless
Ain’t no way they’re gonna keep my spirit or this message underground
never wanted any violence
but I gotta break the silence
Gonna settle this one right here and now
When the answer calls you to be a soldier
In a war that spares no one from it’s view
In the days before we can say it’s over
Everyone has a side they’ve gotta choose

I don't know which way we’re facing
Heaven or earth’s invitation
only a moment of greatness’s
All I need and all I'm asking for
Hoping that we're not mistaken
And these aren't windmills we're chasing
history here in the making’s
All I need and all I'm asking for

I’ll do whatever whatever whatever whatever whatever it takes

Signs might point to the sky
And we gonna follow the light
Signs might point to the ground
Well we don't pay them no mind
Send my voice to the clouds
And turn the volume up high
Turn it up now
