Sometimes I’m struggling My mind racing My tongue tripping to bring me back At all the straws, I’m grasping My muscles burning My bones weary to bring me back Bring me back bring me home to you Lately, I’m strugging The loss, astounding But pressure mounting to bring me back I’m used to traveling but now I’m weary this sadness, heavy now I can’t go back My river’s running dry My fire is low My river’s running dry (So) Bring me back bring me home to you on my knees, I am drowning on dry land, wondering - if ever there is an end to endless rain, flooded fields, rotted root. let me go with you, I'm struggling. my heart yearns for the wild, dark uncovering - solitude on your banks, in the flow. on my knees, I am drowning on dry land, wandering... there is only me, my spirit, these waters dissolving - and you, inviting my release. let me go with you, I'm suffering. when I can't walk, I crawl to your shores, hungering - for your gentle touch, on my knees, I am drowning on dry land, wondering if I will see you, lying there, slumbering - nourished by light streams and love falls. let me go with you, I'm numbing. you carried me to the depths to show me - I only drown when I struggle to breathe. on my knees, I am breathing underwater let me go with you, I'm surrendering. River, river, as you flow, tell me all I need to know flood my banks and drench my soul wash away this human toll River, river, don’t you know? I have nowhere else to go Help me find my way back home River me to my soul I only drown when I struggle to breathe River me to my soul I only drown when I struggle to breathe

about

This is the second single from Feroza's forthcoming album, 'the river whispered'. Feroza and ᛝBritt came together to co-create a beautiful song about going within and surrendering to the river. Working on one song turned into two as they decided to delve deeper into the weeds, creating a sonic experience weaving together melody, mantra, poetry and the sounds of the environment. They invite you to listen with headphones for a complete listening experience.
