River Cross (One World: Together At Home)

Always thought I'd cross that river

The other side, distant now

As we got close, it turned and widened

The horizon now fading out

Drifting off in the undertow

Can't spot a figure on dry land

And afterthoughts of safety

When in truth, none to be had

None to be had

I used to tell time by my shadow

'Til the thunderclouds, they took the stage

These days will end as do the light's rays

Another read of the same page

Wide awake through this deepest night

Still waiting on the sun

As the hours seem to multiply

Find a star to soldier on

Oh, folded over, forced in a choke hold

Outnumbered and held down

As we fight with the envies of old

For the future, feel the promise now

Of here and now

Here and now

Won't hold us down

Won't hold us down

Let it out, shout it out

Give it out, get it out

Won't hold us down

Won't hold us down

Share the light

Won't hold us down

Share the light

Won't hold us down

Share the light

Won't hold us down

Share the light
