She's a bright light, look for too long and you'll go blind
Losing sight of the line
She's a bright light, it's hard to run once she's inside
While you feel alive, she's watching you die
The fight is closing in, it's time to hold our ground
No turning back, no turning back
The longer that we run, the weaker we become
No turning back, no turning back
We've been taught that conflict is a lack of tolerance
And tolerance today is King
I have learned that all the things that plague us chase us down
No matter how well we hide, no matter how far we run
Give me liberty from death
Give me liberty or give me death
Behind the Song:“No Turning Back” touches on that one area of life that always seems to pull us away from God and back to sin. Our society has taught us to value and embrace tolerance, but tolerance also enables us to justify falling into the habits and addictions that we have once struggled with. The song is about drawing a line in the sand to say, “I will never allow this to come back into my life, and I will vehemently defend that decision.” Freedom always follows.” – Ben Olin (
