[Intro]
I ain't goin' back again (Again, again)
I ain't goin' back again (Again, again)

[Verse 1]
I ain't goin back again
To that state of mind where I was ignorant and it was wartime
And I thought I could save all of us if I wrote one line you know the right line
And gettin' by wasn't gettin' by we had to steal and lie and some of us died
We were on borrowed time and the clock was tickin' and they're lookin' at me and the move was mine

[Pre-Chorus 1]
f*ck it just tell 'em the truth
Tell 'em no man can take nothin' from you
Tell 'em your skin is too thick and you'll die about this
They don't possess the spirit you do
Tell 'em your city is countin' on you
If you go home with nothin' they'll probably kill you
And this ain't life or death for them
Close your eyes and count to ten

[Chorus]
Honestly, this is as honest as I've been
So I'll try speaking to the public like we're friends
Truthfully I wish the very best for men
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
I ain't goin' back again
I ain't goin' back again
I ain't goin' back again
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
[Verse 2]
I ain't goin back again
To that dope house where we slept together 'cause it was cold out
We had one jacket amongst all of us so we would take turns when we would go out
And the open oven heated the whole house and the mattress on the kitchen floor
With an AK 47 and three handguns but we swore we needed more
'Cause we were at war
Where we'd haul water by the bucket back to our home
And we'd heat the water and we'd talk for hours 'cause we didn't have no phones
And we'd dream together about a better life and houses and cars and clothes
And we'd laugh and joke as we all showered from the same pan on the stove

[Pre-Chorus 2]
f*ck it just tell 'em the truth
Tell 'em no man can take nothin' from you
Tell 'em your skin is too thick and you'll die about this
They don't possess the spirit you do
After all the sh*t we've been through
I'd kill myself before I turn on you
And this ain't life or death for them
Close your eyes and count to ten

[Chorus]
Honestly, this is as honest as I've been
So I'll try speaking to the public like we're friends
Truthfully I wish the very best for men
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
I ain't goin' back again
I ain't goin' back again
I ain't goin' back again
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
[Interlude: News reporters]
"Twenty-eight-year-olds David Gunn and Eugene Gills they were arrested Thursday at Detroit Metro Airport by the Michigan State Police [?]"

"Music is violent and it draws violence to it. Shootings, stabbings, beatings, and [?]

[Bridge]
I ain't goin' back again
To the time we thought that a record deal could save us
I ain't goin' back again
Where we were unapproachable and desperate and we were dangerous
I ain't goin' back again
Where our city would love us and think highly of us not hate us
'Cause it didn't change a thing
I'm still David
I'm still KING

[Chorus]
Honestly, this is as honest as I've been
So I'll try speaking to the public like we're friends
Truthfully I wish the very best for men
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
I ain't goin' back again
I ain't goin' back again
I ain't goin' back again
But you think freedom is money well money has an end
I ain't goin' back again
