[Intro]

[Harmonica wail, soft guitar skank, one-drop drum]

Mmm, the city’s cryin’, world’s a storm,

But my soul’s still singin’, keepin’ warm.

River’s runnin’ deep, through the night,

Gonna find my way to the morning light.

[Verse 1]

Wind’s howlin’ down these busted streets,

Broken signs hum where the lost souls meet.

Got my old guitar, strings cut my hands,

Every note’s a prayer for a promised land.

Sky’s turnin’ grey, but my heart’s alive,

Rasta road’s callin’, I’m gonna survive.

Chaos all around, like a flood’s gonna drown,

But I’m risin’ up, won’t let it hold me down.

[Chorus]

River of redemption, carry me home,

Through the fire and the madness, I’m never alone.

Hope’s my anchor, shining through the rain,

Gonna ride this rhythm, break every chain.

(Ooh-yeah)

River of redemption, set my spirit free,

Light’s on the horizon, it’s callin’ to me.

[Verse 2]

Neon flickers, world’s a tangled fight,

But the blues keep hummin’ in the dead of night.

Got a rebel beat, skankin’ in my bones,

Every scar’s a story, every road a home.

Muddy waters flow where the truth runs deep,

Singin’ to the stars while the city sleeps.

Ain’t no storm too wild, no pain too strong,

Hope’s my compass, keepin’ me movin’ on.

[Chorus]

River of redemption, carry me home,

Through the fire and the madness, I’m never alone.

Hope’s my anchor, shining through the rain,

Gonna ride this rhythm, break every chain.

(Ooh-yeah)

River of redemption, set my spirit free,

Light’s on the horizon, it’s callin’ to me.

[Bridge]

[Harmonica solo, bongos pulse, guitar skank pauses]

Hold up, world, let the silence sing,

Feel the truth in the breeze, let it lift my wings.

Every tear’s a seed, every hurt’s a spark,

Growin’ stronger now, lightin’ up the dark.

[Drums kick in, guitar wails]

Yeah, I’m ready, let the river roll!

[Chorus]

River of redemption, carry me home,

Through the fire and the madness, I’m never alone.

Hope’s my anchor, shining through the rain,

Gonna ride this rhythm, break every chain.

(Ooh-yeah)

River of redemption, set my spirit free,

Light’s on the horizon, it’s callin’ to me.

[Outro]

[Guitar skank fades, harmonica lingers, soft organ]

Storm’s gone quiet, river’s runnin’ clear,

Found my hope, ain’t no more fear.

Redemption’s song, it’s my heart’s refrain,

Gonna walk in light, through the joy and pain.

[Fade to End]
