Tied to themes of other songs on Maggot Brain such as war, peace and hatred, Back In Our Minds is a song about unity and the human species being unable to stand fighting each other anymore.
Something to note is the connection between minds and the album’s title, which could allude to the switch up...
[Chorus]
We are back in our minds again
We are back in our minds again
We are back in our minds again
[Verse]
We don't fight no more
We done closed that door
This time for sure
We can't stand no more
Fussin' and a-cussin' each other
When we're supposed to be brothers
Livin' in this world we all live in
[Chorus]
We are back in our minds again
We are back in our minds again
We are back in our minds again
[Verse]
We don't fight no more
We done closed that door
This time for sure
We can't stand no more
Fussin' and a-cussin' each other
We're supposed to be brothers
Livin' in this world we all live in
[Outro]
Back in our minds again
