Back to Life is from the perspective of three minority groups that have had massive movements relating to them: immigrants, women, and black lives. The narrator asks the question “if I died under the hands of my oppressor(s), would they regret it?”
Back to Life Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Do I look like religion?
Do you think you could preach me?
Do I look like a pagan?
Do you think you can teach me?
Do I look like a migrant?
Do you think you could move me?
And did I look like I'm violent?
Then baby, why don't you shoot me?
[Chorus]
And if I died in the middle of a frozen night
Would you feel alright? Would you be alright?
If i died in the middle of your paradise
Would you change your mind?
Would you bring me back to life?
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
[Verse 2]
Do I look like a monkey?
Do you think you can cage me?
Do I look like an actress?
Do you think you could rape me?
And do I look like I'm energy?
Do you think you can waste me?
And if you don't like my poetry?
Then baby, why don't you butcher me? (Cut cut!)
[Chorus]
And if I died in the middle of a frozen night
Would you be alright? Would you feel alright?
If i died in the middle of your paradise
Would you change your mind?
Would you bring me back to life?
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
[Bridge]
(Preach me, teach me)
(Move me, shoot me)
(Cage me, rape me)
(Waste me, butcher me)
[Outro]
If I died in the middle of a frozen night (Preach me)
If I died in the middle of your paradise (Teach me)
If I died in the middle of a frozen night (Take me)
If I died in the middle, if I died in the middle (Don't hurt me)
Would you cry?
Bring me back to life
