Navigating Life's Currents: Joshua McBride's Reflective Journey by the River
Lyrics
Meet me at the river
Initiating a rendezvous at the river, a symbolic meeting place.
Don't forget your stuff
Reminder not to forget personal belongings.
We've been running
Expressing the idea of continuous movement or escape.
For a damn long time
Acknowledging a prolonged period of running or evasion.
Someone said keep it slow
Advice received to maintain a deliberate, unhurried pace.
Times a wastin
Highlighting the urgency of time passing and the need to act.
Growing old
Reflection on the inevitability of aging.
When you got it
When possessing something, there's a tendency to discard or misuse it.
You throw it back down
Choosing to not appreciate or value what one has.
We played like we know it
Engaging in activities with confidence, as if knowing the outcome.
Know it all somehow
Claiming knowledge or expertise in various matters.
And we feared every motion
Facing apprehension or anxiety about revisiting certain memories.
That takes us back to spots
Unwillingness to return to specific places associated with suffering.
We know we could suffer
Acknowledging the potential for hardship if certain actions are repeated.
If we throw it back up
Considering the consequences before repeating a particular action.
Feeling it out
Exploring or evaluating a situation cautiously.
Set your pace
Establishing one's own speed or rhythm in life.
The days will fold
Acknowledging the unfolding of time and experiences.
I'm no saint
Admitting to not being morally perfect.
And then we go in
Entering a challenging situation or confrontation.
Down to it
Engaging in a struggle or conflict with determination.
And fight and fear
Facing and overcoming fears without giving up.
Like we don't quit
Persisting despite challenges and hardships.
It takes away
Recognizing the cost or sacrifice involved.
From where we came
Acknowledging the impact on one's origins or roots.
The ones who were fighting
The individuals who were actively fighting lacked complete understanding.
Didn't really know
Realizing that the outcome doesn't always align with the efforts.
Doesn't ever matter
Asserting that the ultimate outcome may not be significant.
We come out how we do
Embracing the results, whatever they may be.
And we shot it all down
Putting an end to something, possibly with finality.
We figured out the way
Discovering a solution or understanding the correct path.
If it wasn't worth denying
Weighing the value of denying something against its worth.
We tried
Attempting to understand or grasp a certain concept.
To know something
An attempt to gain knowledge or insight.
