"No Going Back" is a song by Marlyn Desire for their album Story of Persephone based off the Greek myth about the seasons. The song comes from the perspective of Hades who admits he kidnapped Persephone once he got permission from Zeus and doesn't care that Demeter is threatening to wipe out humanity as he wants to be loved.

I’ve been wronged
Oh so wronged
Zeus has played for a fool for too long
He wants his daughter back
Cause of Demeter’s act
I think that’s bullsh*t
A deal’s a deal and that is that
I know I took her by force
On my chariot and horse
But my brothers tryna do me wrong
Saying that she won’t be here for long
You can’t go back on what you gave me
Just wanted a chance to be happy
I’m keeping her
Here she will stay
There isn’t any other way no
You can’t go back on what you gave me
Just wanted a chance to be happy
I’m keeping her
Here she will stay
There isn’t any other way no
Her mother is over reacting
Like being my wife is a bad thing
I’ll treat her right
With all my might
Make sure that nothing here will ever cause her a fright
Already been dealt the shortest lot
Little bro you’ve been dazing all the way up in your haven
I’ll give her something sweet, so she’ll remember me
And in due time you’ll see, she’ll come right back to me
I know I took her by force
On my chariot and horse
But my brothers tryna do me wrong
Saying that she won’t be here for long
You can’t go back on what you gave me
Just wanted a chance to be happy
(To be happy)
I’m keeping her
Here she will stay
There isn’t any other way no
(No other way no)
I’ll give her something sweet, so she’ll remember me
And in due time you’ll see, she’ll come right back to me
I’ll give her something sweet, so she’ll remember me
And in due time you’ll see, she’ll come right back to me
