not going back Lyrics

I can't go back, I won't go back, like a dog to it's vomit, nah

I won't go back, I can't go back, like a fool to his folly, nah

I ain't goin back to my old ways cuz my old ways are behind me

And I'm not going back cuz only a fool licks his own vomit

I done turned from my sin, I done gave it all to Him, I don't wanna go back

Did it too many times in my life and now I'm finally on the right track

I know we stumble and we fall but a righteous man will rise again

Being a Christian doesn't mean your perfect, it's a life of sanctification

When I open my Bible it's a rifle the Word shoots me, wisdom in heaps

I just sharpen my sword, it's a double edge blade, and it cuts real deep

Obey the commands, show that you love if you lukewarm He gon' vomit you out

I don't wanna make Him sick, wanna hear "well done", so I choose the narrow route

I will not go back and I cannot go back like a fool to his folly

I cannot go back and I ain't going back like a dog to it's vomit

I'm not gonna do all the things that I did before I surrendered my whole life to Him

Because when I did I was cleansed my sin and now I am new cuz I'm born again

I'm not going back to how I was

And I'm not gonna do all the things that I used to

I'll never turn my back on His promise

Cuz only a fool licks his own vomit

The old me first thing in the morn I'd wake up and I'd hit the bong

After that roll a J, then light up, wasting time with the TV on

But these days every time I wake, I look up, and thank God for another day

Then I take a deep breath and I'm reminded that even that comes from Yahweh

Mary had a little lamb who was Holy and He died for all the sheep

But satan always tryin to lie, and tellin us, that we in too deep

When he brings up my past I tell him his future, hell's not created for me

Cuz we are covered in the blood of the one and only Son and there ain't nothin he can do to me

I can't go back, I won't go back, like a dog to it's vomit, nah

I won't go back, I can't go back, like a fool to his folly, nah

I ain't goin back to my old ways cuz my old ways are behind me

And I'm not goin back cuz only a fool licks his own vomit

I'm not going back to how I was

And I'm not gonna do all the things that I used to

I'll never turn my back on His promise

Cuz only a fool licks his own vomit
