Lyrics
VERSE:
December ?97 in the Amarillo Streets
11pm with bloodshed on the concrete
A difference intolerance
An intolerance that haunts an entire town
With one punk down
VERSE:
A big Cadillac against a kid age 19
His name was Brian Deneke, the most punk you?d ever seen
A punk whose lifetime was short-lived
The war between some white hats and some freaks
We need unity
CHORUS:
Stand up
No turning back
No need to fight
Leave the long road behind (x2)
VERSE:
Brian was a brother and Brian was a son
Brian was a friend and he was killed for being a punk
The jury didn?t understand
3 whole years for taking someone?s life
An innocent life
CHORUS:
Stand up
No turning back
No need to fight
Leave the long road behind (x2)
CHORUS:
Stand up
No turning back
No need to fight them
Leave the long road behind (x4)
