nks (nz) - down the river lyrics

[intro]
gallons of water steady flowing
down the river, i’m steady floating
the only supplies on the vessel are emotions
the only possible destination is the ocean

[chorus]
down the river, he go
down the river, he float
down the river, some more
down the river, keep goin’

[post+chorus]
me and the ship, meandering
they tell me there’s a sea after this
seems hazardous (oh my god)
me and the ship, dream+capturing
but once i reach the sea after this
there’s no option for dropping the anchor in

[verse 1]
i started from a lake, they put me on a tiny boat
the barren conditions and still water was everything i know
but since i had to grow, i followed a narrow stream
the landscape changed, turning green
saw new things i had never seen
a different stream joined mine and another after that
soon the channel of aqua was wider than it had ever been
no stopping now, i couldn’t reach out to touch the banks
water so deep i couldn’t see the riverbed there
vegetation coated on the hills and valleys
but an urban topography in the distance slightly scared me
though when i got closer, i realised what fascination it carries
floating under bridges ‘long banks more glassy than grassy
soon i won’t have banks on either side to guide me
tryna stay prudent but the way i’m moving is exciting
bouncing off rocks, encountering waterfalls
i’m indifferent as long as i achieve my goals
[chorus]
down the river, he go
down the river, he float
down the river, some more
down the river, keep goin’

[verse 2]
i’ve always looked down the paths i’m taking
but as i approach the boundless ocean, i choose to turn away from it
looking back up at the paths i’ve taken
knowing well at some point i gotta turn back to the moana and face it
embrace it, same as i’ve done with every new location
except on this occasion, i won’t have banks on either side for company
it’s just me, is it just me, when i feel worried about adjusting
as i enter the delta of this adventure

[chorus]
down the river, he go
down the river, he float
down the river, some more
down the river, keep goin’
[outro]
down the river, keep goin’
down the river, keep goin’
down the river, keep goin’
down the river (oh my god)
