River Lyrics by Adiga

OK

2021

[Intro]
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah

[Verse 1]
I remember when she told me be my lover be my man
But I told her that I can't
But I told her that I can’t
'Cause I need to free myself before I can be with you
I need to get a little view
Widen my perspective
Get a little more objective
(Please)
Maybe get more creative
That's what I told her
I said life is a river
Yeah umm
I said next to river we both gonna be fine
We can meet right here and drink a little wine
We’ll celebrate the time, and talk about the line that connected two dots who felt so lost
But then you'll go away and you won't be mine
And It's alright, never getting stuck, growing like a vine
Need no shrine, 'cause I know I'm free, not looking to find absolutes, but now I'm feelin' like a fool

[Interlude]
She told me be my lover be my boy
I told her I can’t really bring you joy
I have so much on my mind I’m paranoid about my future in this world
She told me be my lover be my boy
I told her I can't do it, need to go
She invited me up
I said no more
And only now I think I know

[Bridge]
I’m not ready
I'm afraid to open up my heart
I'm not steady
Changing every day, I'm afraid to commit
And just go
For one thing
If I’m being honest, yeah, I'm not ready
I'm not ready

[Interlude]
You think you know yourself
But then you collide with the world
And you never know when
Some things just take a lot to grow
You think you know yourself
But then you collide with the world
And you find you're not ready
You're just a baby

[Bridge]
I know
What I've lost
Oh, I know
Oh, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Outro]
Need to open my heart a little more
