Story Behind The Song

They said the cold war ended, but was only replaced by other wars, greed, poverty, homelessness, a failure to respect human life and dignity of all people while we are also destroying our planet.

Song Description

If we as humans do not do something immediately to correct our course, we will destroy ourselves and our planet. Once this happens, there will be no more yesterdays, no more tomorrows and no more today's.

Lyrics

No More Yesterdays

By Steven M Skinner

The war is gone and peace has been restored, or so they say
From where I stand it isn't over yet, it rages on, and on and on
Children are dying in the streets, still we turn our heads away
We failed to teach them how to read, mortgaged their futures for today

It's getting way out of hand, way beyond belief, time is running out my friend
So I say to you, get off your ass today or no more yesterdays
No tomorrow, no today
No more yesterdays

So I ask you, who's right my friend, we've been deceived
Who's cheating whom are we all such fools, we're being burned, and burned and burned
We all speak of equality, yet we separate ourselves
The hypocrites say they know the way, but they only care about themselves

It's getting way out of hand, way beyond belief, time is running out my friend
So I say to you, get off your ass today or no more yesterdays
No tomorrow, no today
No more yesterdays

Do not believe all that's told to you, you see the truth
And if you think you don't mean that much, well you're wrong, so very wrong
It's up to each and every one of us to take care of all we share
The time is here and the time is now, it's time for all of us to care

It's getting way out of hand, way beyond belief, time is running out my friend
So I say to you, get off your ass today or no more yesterdays
No tomorrow, no today
No more yesterdays
