"The River" lyrics

Hello, my friend
It's been a long time
You've got your views, and I have found mine
Yours are up, and mine are sideways
But most days
I still think
I still think that we could kick it

The river is overflowing
And my boat is sinking
We don't know where we are going
And we ain't even thinking
Maybe, we're treading poison
And then it's heave ho
We tiptoe
Through hurricanes
Slow run
So numb
Like Novocaine
Rick-roll
We doom-scroll
The day away
And I think I've been getting good at getting nowhere

A fire-hose
And broke nose
And all that is coming
Where does it come from?
Why are we running?
I wish I could know
I wish I could grow
I wish I could kick it
But no. I just click it

The river is overflowing
And my boat is sinking
We don't know where we are going
And we ain't even thinking
Maybe, we're treading poison
And then it's heave ho
We tiptoe
Through hurricanes
Slow run
So numb
Like Novocaine
Rick-roll
We doom-scroll
The day away
And I think I've been getting good at getting nowhere

Heave ho
We tiptoe
Through hurricanes
Slow run
So numb
Like Novocaine
Rick-roll
We doom-scroll
The day away
I think I've been getting good at getting nowhere

We're getting nowhere
I'm getting nowhere
We're getting nowhere

Hey. Now, mamma, wait just a minute
Taking these "L"s, girl, tryna win it

Hey. Now, mamma, wait just a minute
Taking these "L"s, girl, tryna win it

Hey. Now, mamma, wait just a minute
Taking these "L"s, girl, tryna win it
