Came Upon a River

Original. Hope you like it!

lyrics

Came upon a river that could take me away, down to the line oh …
Just needed to step in and feel the land give way, down to the line, oh

With a little push I could make my escape, they would make me a shrine, oh
Talk about my wins, throwing ticker tape, they would make me a shrine, oh

Think of all things they would take me for, a hero with a bandolier
Mostly tales of what's in store, the truth remains a little unclear

If I leave, I’d lose all control over the myth, oh
If I’m not around, I’d lose my hold, over the myth, oh

There’s no telling what’d people say, about how I lived in this town
All the triumphs would be castaway, into stories I could never live down

Turn my heels and return to the streets, where Im a king in my mind, oh
Face my demons and collect my receipts, to be a king in my mind, oh
