Hint: Please keep in mind that you cannot select these tools by keystrokes in text edit mode.

  Press [Escape] if you want to stop using the current tool. Press [Escape] again if you want to switch back to the selection tool.

The Text tool has two modes, the text edit mode and the text frame creation mode. The first press on [Escape] switches back from text edit mode to text frame creation mode. The second press on [Escape] then switches back to the Select tool.
