River of Sorrow
Navigating the River of Sorrow: Charley Crockett's Tale of Redemption
Lyrics
I got myself a river Of Sorrow
I possess a constant experience of sorrow.
I lost my name in the valley of shame
I've faced disgrace to the extent that I've lost my identity.
I got no one to tell my troubles
I don't have anyone with whom I can share my troubles.
A life of sinning is all I know
My life has been marked by a continuous pattern of sinful behavior.
But If I'm patient
Despite my challenges, I should practice patience.
I need not worry
If I am patient, there is no need for excessive worry.
And if I'm hurting
Even in times of pain, there is a certainty that the situation will improve.
It's sure to change
The pain I'm currently experiencing is temporary and will change.
Sometimes I wonder why do I bother
Reflecting on why I carry the heavy burden in my life.
With this burden, heavy load
The burden I bear is significant and weighs heavily on me.
I can't struggle with my tomorrow
I cannot grapple with what the future holds for me.
Because I've got so much further to go
The journey ahead is long and challenging.
Well I'm leaving early in the morning
Planning to depart early in the morning.
Where I'm bound I just can't tell
Uncertain about my destination and future path.
I would stay here to keep on working
Would prefer to stay and continue working, but resources are depleted.
But there's no more water in the well
No more resources or support available.
But if I'm patient
Reiteration of the importance of patience in facing challenges.
I need not worry
Being patient eliminates the need for excessive worry.
And if I'm hurting
Despite the pain, there is a certainty that it will eventually change.
It's sure to change
The current pain is temporary and will evolve.
I had myself a river Of Sorrow
Reiteration of the ongoing experience of sorrow.
I lost my name in a valley of blue
Similar to line 2, experiencing a loss of identity in a different context.
I had no one who I could talk to
Continuing to face isolation without someone to talk to.
A life of sinning was all I knew
A repetition of the theme of a life characterized by sinful actions.
A life of sinning was all I knew
Emphasizing the entrenched nature of a life marked by sin.
A life of sinning was all that I knew
Repeating the acknowledgment of a life defined by sinful behavior.
