Skirmish: You Were Wrong (@robinleaf) Challenge: Two Styles

Liner Notes

Another take on the skirmish "You were wrong", as usual too late. Also some different styles from the 70s to be found in this (long) song.

Beware, this one is quite political,,, It may hurt some people's feelings...

Lyrics

Shadows of the past, they linger and loom
Echoes of lies fill every room
You beckon me back to your game of control
But I've seen the light, and I've reclaimed my soul

Your walls are crumbling, your rules obsolete
Your power's an illusion, your victory incomplete

I'm not going back to your world of deceit
Not crawling back to admit defeat
Your chains can't hold me, your threats won't suffice
I'm not going back, no matter the price

Media circus, spinning your web
Feeding the masses, keeping them led
But I've torn off the blindfold, I see through the haze
Your empire of lies is beginning to phase

Your walls are crumbling, your rules obsolete
Your power's an illusion, your victory incomplete

I'm not going back to your world of deceit
Not crawling back to admit defeat
Your chains can't hold me, your threats won't suffice
I'm not going back, no matter the price

You can't rewrite history
Can't wash your hands clean
I'll stand with the voiceless
Against your regime

Not going back, not going back
Not going back, never going back

I'm not going back to your world of deceit
Not crawling back to admit defeat
Your chains can't hold me, your threats won't suffice
I'm not going back, watch your empire die

Not going back, not going back
Not going back, never going back
