NEVER GOING BACK AGAIN
V1
Another day arises, no different than the last
You want much more than life so far has shown
Struggling with the present, still dealing with the past
Looking for a way to make your presence known
BRIDGE 1
Don't be blinded by the light of those so far above you
Or discouraged by the ones who cannot see
That only you can bring the world the spark of what's inside you
And that spark will light the way to victory
CHORUS
There's a path that's laid out before us A place that we've never been
Our story's just begun There's a race to be won & I'm never going back again!
V2
Pushing through the trenches, another day has dawned No closer to the place you wanna be
But have faith in the future you envision in your soul You can arrive anywhere your mind can see
BRIDGE 2
And you know that only you can do the what must be done
To bring yourself to appointed destiny
And only you can bring the world the spark of what's inside you
And that spark will light the way to victory
REPEAT CHORUS SOLO REPEAT CHORUS

Dustin Wray Warren, Ohio
I was struck with the songwriting bug in college, and Ive been writing ever since so I have a lot of material to choose from! Im now working with several studios both in Ohio & also in Nashville to record as many high quality songs as I can. I write/record both mainstream & Christian music. My songs can mostly be described as rock, with an emphasis on the sounds of the AWESEOME 80’s! ... more
