and so this river is an ever flowing capricious flood
flowing fast until the rapids swallow some up-up-up-up-up
not every fish can keep up with the stream
these unyielding swift currents swallow dreams
but somehow, I’ve floated into some swimmers
whom have carried me, and kept me afloat, going down the stream 
well, would I have drown without your fins?
thank you all for being my floatation device

​

flying so high now way up in the sky

thought the empty atmosphere would clear my mind
but yet there is no escape from falling through some clouds, 
still there birds out there that keep us from hittin’ the ground
and I have found, that I’ve fallen through to the right clouds
cause at the bottom, I landed on the spread of the feathers of all you
saviors in the sky, all you saviors in the sky
thank you all for being my wings

​

slicing my machete, to escape from the jungle
lookin’ for that beach gonna make me humble
but even the sharpest blade, cannot cut through the shade
you can never run away from your shadow
and I have found, some natives who have fed me dinner oo oo oo
kept me warm at night, when the cold slips in to my mind
so would I have frozen, or been eaten by some some creatures?

​

well it may of been so
yeah it may of been so 

well it may of been so 
oo it may of been so 
well it may of been so 
well it may of been so 

well it may of been so if I didn't have all you as my captains oh yeah

so thank you all for being my flotation device
so thank you all for being my wings

so thank you thank you thank you thank you 
oo thank you

thank you all for being my flotation device
