**NO TURNING BACK** [INTRO — distorted bass, clipped guitar, whispered] Where are You going? “Follow Me.” But— What about my plans? What about my comfort? What about tomorrow? [VERSE 1 — jagged, rhythmic] I want an answer Before I obey I want the whole road Before I take one step I put You on trial With questions in my mouth Like if I understand You I'll finally trust You now But who am I To summon You? Who am I To tell You what to do? The stars don't need my permission The ocean doesn't ask me why [PRE-CHORUS — rising] You speak— And I can follow You call— And I can go Even when I don't know What waits beyond the road [CHORUS — explosive] **NO TURNING BACK** **NO TURNING BACK** You said, “Follow Me” So I'm leaving where I was **NO TURNING BACK** **NO TURNING BACK** I don't need to know the ending If I know the One who calls **LET THE DEAD BURY THE DEAD** **LET TOMORROW TAKE CARE OF TOMORROW** You have my yes— **NO TURNING BACK** [VERSE 2 — heavier, syncopated] “I'll follow You,” But first let me go home “I'll follow You,” But let me hold what I know One hand on the plow One hand on yesterday Trying to walk toward Heaven While staring at the way I came You don't call me backward You don't call me safe You call me from the doorway And You don't promise ease [PRE-CHORUS] You speak— And I can follow You call— And I can go Even when I don't know What waits beyond the road [CHORUS] **NO TURNING BACK** **NO TURNING BACK** You said, “Follow Me” So I'm leaving where I was **NO TURNING BACK** **NO TURNING BACK** I don't need to know the ending If I know the One who calls **LET THE DEAD BURY THE DEAD** **LET TOMORROW TAKE CARE OF TOMORROW** You have my yes— **NO TURNING BACK** [BRIDGE — starts nearly empty] Job asks— “Who can answer You?” And I realize— I don't need to win the argument. I need to surrender. [drums begin] I don't need every answer I don't need to see the road I don't need to hold tomorrow If You're the One who knows [guitars rise] Take my questions Take my comfort Take the life I planned myself If following You costs me everything— **THEN TAKE IT ALL.** [EXPLOSION] **I'M DONE LOOKING BACK!** **I'M DONE LOOKING BACK!** [BREAKDOWN] **FOLLOW.** **ME.** **FOLLOW.** **ME.** **FOLLOW—** **ME!** [FINAL CHORUS — massive] **NO TURNING BACK** **NO TURNING BACK** You said, “Follow Me” And now I'm leaving where I was **NO TURNING BACK** **NO TURNING BACK** I don't need to know the ending I just need to know Your voice **NO TURNING BACK** Even when I don't understand— **NO TURNING BACK** Even when I don't know the cost— **NO TURNING BACK** You called my name. **I'M GOING.** [OUTRO — distorted bass fading] No answers. No map. Just Your voice— **“Follow Me.”**
