Moving Water
Flow of Liberation: Embracing Life's Currents with Jackson Hughes
Lyrics
Brother take those things
Encouragement to let go of burdens or unattainable things
You could never deliver
Things or goals beyond one's capability
Lay them down alone
To leave these burdens behind
On the edge of the river
Metaphorical placement by a river, a symbol of change
Close your eyes
Encouragement to relax or let go
And go where the flow takes you
To surrender to life's natural course
Where the moving water takes you
Emphasizing the power and direction of life's flow
Far between the spring
Between the start and end of life's journey
And the motherless ocean
Symbolic distance between origins and eternity
Flows a stream of aimless
Life depicted as aimless, continuous movement
Perpetual motion
Existence devoid of specific purpose or destination
No belief, no pain, no divine mercy
Lack of structured beliefs, pain, or divine intervention
Only moving water you'll see
Emphasis on life's essence being like moving water
Moving water, moving water
Reiteration of the comparison of life to moving water
Moving water you'll be
Affirmation of becoming part of life's flowing essence
Brother when the sandstorm
Foreseeing a challenging time
Of time overtakes me
Life's struggles overwhelming an individual
And quiet hands unclothe me
Aging and vulnerability in the face of life's challenges
Distill and displace me
To be affected and transformed by life's experiences
I'll arise and glide through that endless blue
Transitioning into an eternal phase, like water in the ocean
I'll be moving water like you
Becoming part of the eternal flow of life
Moving water, moving water
Repeating the notion of becoming part of life's flow
Moving water, like you
Affirmation of assimilating into the flowing essence of life
