River
Embracing Freedom: Shirley Grimes' River of Resilience
Lyrics
Daylight starts creeping in
Daylight marks the beginning of the soul's expression.
When this soul's song begins to sing
The soul's song starts, and one should pay attention to its gentle words.
Listen to its tender words
Encouragement to listen carefully to the tender lyrics.
Give it flight now, this faithful bird
Let the faithful bird of the soul take flight.
Grey clouds, they slip away
Grey clouds dissipate as music begins, suggesting a positive change.
When this music begins to play
Highlighting the impact of music in dispelling clouds.
Know now, it is not me
Clarification that the source is not the singer but a river, a symbol of freedom.
It is a river that must run free
Emphasizing the river's need to flow freely.
Come doubts, come fear
Challenges and uncertainties are acknowledged.
Come words to a song
Invoking the idea of expressing emotions through song.
This river keeps flowing
The river of song continues despite doubts and fears.
It keeps flowing on
Reiteration of the perpetual flow of the song despite challenges.
Forces, always at play
Forces are always influencing, ensuring the singer stays on course.
Making sure I don't loose my way
Acknowledging external influences preventing deviation.
Choice is no longer mine
Choice is no longer within the singer's control.
I have learned that along the line
Learning this truth along the journey of life.
Come doubts, come fear
Reiteration of facing doubts and fears in the journey.
Come words to a song
Repeating the idea of expressing emotions through song.
This river keeps flowing
Continuation of the river's flow despite challenges.
It keeps flowing on
Reaffirming the perpetual nature of the song's flow.
Freely, I carry on
Continuing freely with the journey, sharing a simple song.
Sharing with you my simple song
Expressing the singer's openness in sharing personal expressions.
And when they come into flow
When emotions flow, doubts can be released.
All my doubts I can just let go
Letting go of doubts when the emotions are expressed.
Come doubts, come fear
Repetition of facing doubts and fears in the journey.
Come words to a song
Repetition of the idea of expressing emotions through song.
This river keeps flowing
Continuation of the river's flow despite ongoing challenges.
It keeps flowing on
Reiteration of the perpetual nature of the song's flow.
Come doubts, come fear
Repeating the acknowledgment of doubts and fears.
Come words to a song
Repeating the idea of expressing emotions through song.
This river it keeps flowing on
Final confirmation of the enduring flow of the river of song.
