I Shall Cross This River Lyrics

My love, she has chosen me
For my candor of speech
She takes me to the river
Like a child at play

She sees not this bitter man
But the promise of a lover
When the darkness washes off
She moves into my arms

So too, my folks support me
Through my restless whims
They see not this failure
But the promise of a firstborn

When my darkness leaves
When my fall is complete
I shall cross this river for them

What is the Meaning of I Shall Cross This River?

Ah, the sweet and sour symphony of love and self-doubt! The Black Atlantic paints a poignant picture of a man who feels unworthy, yet is loved unconditionally by his partner and family. This song is a journey of self-discovery, where he learns to see himself through their eyes - not as a "bitter man" or "failure", but as a lover and promising firstborn. It's all about overcoming personal darkness, crossing that metaphorical river of insecurities for those who believe in him. So strap on those floaties folks, because we're all crossing rivers in our own ways! #LoveConquersAll #CrossingRivers #SelfDiscovery #MetaphoricalJourney
