River Lyrics by Josh Dillon

SOLECALIBUR

2017

[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh whoa
Oh, whoa, cool

[Verse 1]
When I was nine, I had some visions of visiting God
She has a cinnamon skin and some magnificent locks
She told me me, I gave you gifts my nigga look what you got
When I woke up I forgot, and I shut up my alarm
It went like pay your dues, stay in tune make your plans proper
Know you like to get clothes but that spending gon' cost ya
Focus on your flows all these other mans washed up
Fuck 'em dawg nothing gon' stop ya

[Hook]
I think I was found floating in the nile river
Don’t steer I just let the boat ride
And I grew up in a house where the clouds don’t wither
No tears I think I’ll be alright
And I wanna find out why they clipping my feathers
When I looked down I was holding those scissors
I think I was found floating in the nile river
No fear I’ll be there in no time
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
Remember I was cold I was so gone
I told God take my gifts for a whole heart
I'm so lost in a place where there's no laws
But nose frost is a line that I won’t cross
All I hear is lies from these old walls
I just need to fly so high I don’t fall, yeah
I’m just looking down
Like I’m the golden child
It's over now
And I think I was...

[Hook]
I think I was found floating in the nile river
Don’t steer I just let the boat ride
And I grew up in a house where the clouds don’t wither
No tears I think I’ll be alright
And I wanna find out why they clipping my feathers
When I looked down I was holding those scissors
I think I was found floating in the nile river
No fear I’ll be there in no time
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
