Forward 04:13
As we aspire forward, emerging from our darker days Intrepidly out towards, the ramparts in our way We don't need a map, trailblazing wilderness explorers There's no turning back, we're taking it forward Onward and forward, without guilt or shame A new world order, unafraid of blame We'lll chart a new path, through the guns rockets and mortars There's no turning back, we're taking it forward We can't turn back time, don't look over your shoulder We can leave the past behind, forward We're all moving forward, if there's a will there's a way From chaos and disorder, the dawn of a new day No need to cover tracks, we're lions we're not cowards There's no turning back, we're taking it forward Chorus Just as church bells must ring, and as the east must birth the sun As the waves crash and sing, a new day has begun As the light of dawn cracks, and billows over borders There's no turning back, forward Chorus

How could words so simple, be so unclear? The wouldn't listen, or they couldn't hear A criminal voice, driven by fear It was just black noise, nothing to see here He was selling loosey's, on the side Without a stamp, in broad daylight On Staten Island, when police arrived He wasn't violent, but they took his life Eric Garner died, in front of our eyes He didn't run, he couldn't hide They took him to his knees, ignored his pleas 11 times he cried, "I can't breathe" Daniel Pantaleo, got a choke hold Took Garner's life, God rest his soul They caught it all, on video They didn't indict, they let him go One voice in a crowd, will never be heard 10 talking together, will cause a little stir A chorus of people, singing out like birds Is the only way, these ills will be cured Chorus I can't breathe 11 x.
