Intro
R.I.V.E.R Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got rap in my knapsack
All I need is some weed and a snapback
If she got a fat ass I would tap that
I just blew up and you are flat as a flapjack
Yah yah
I’m in my zone, what a safe haven
Your chick fina bone, my dick she’s craving
Misbehaving
Now her parents fina call me Satan
Daamn
What an accusation
Hey when I see you you’re always waving
Get it “sea” -”waving”
Man I’m just playing
That ain't a punchline
But these days it is man I’m just saying
That’s why I had to steal rap
Take it back to the lab
And seal its cracks and fix its back
Cause ya’ll be raping it so damn hard its fina snap
And I won’t have that
All I want is a little bit of justice
Man you back there where the dust is
Yah I’m gonna’ make a slight adjustment
Got a bitch and her name is duchess
Swear to God she be so damn lustrous
She said I’m growing on her like fungus
I said damn that shit’s disgusting
Now you’re probably wondering why I said that shit, well let’s have a little discussion
See that was four lines of a verse
And your favorite rapper’s in a hearse
See, we are a little diverse
I rap stories and he raps words
See, the point I’m making is he raps worse
So put me first
I won’t let you down
That is out of bounds
If I did that would I expect you to pay me now?
Hell no, fuck that shit
On a motherfucking dirty mattress
And if you don’t have a big dick use a motherfucking cactus
I’ll give you 12 straight tracks
For the bitches I rock that six pack
Sex In Ya Headphones I did that
10 thousand downloads and it wasn't even mastered
I’m a quality artist
But I’m motherfucking heartless
Don’t get me started
They wanna see who the smartest
They wanna see who the darkest
And it’s safe to that I am a contender and a target
Top of the market
And you’re garbage
Why don’t you go bungee jumping without a harness?
Nobody wanna see yo ass
And I think that I just stole yo fans
And your bitch just grabbed my pole and danced
A bad reputation is what I’m know to have
So can you keep up with the pace
Cause Rie up in the place
Either duck or get beat up in the face
I don’t give a fuck I’m on my paper chase
And you on a fuckin’ pillow case
Man I think it’s time for change
Don’t you think the same?
Yeah I don’t hear no sirens so without further a do
I am R.I.E
I am the future
This is evolution




Rap in Evolution
I’m gone

Lyrics: Water running, stronger, rougher
Holding onto (any-any) everything
All I want is to survive it
If I let go, will it be the end of me?
Got to move on, held on too long
Sweep me away, out into the ocean

[Chorus]
Mighty river release my soul, I need to see the world
To the unknown, I'll go against my sorrow (Sorrow)
Mighty river release my soul out to the open gold
I can't stay here forever in this hollow (Hollow)
Oh, river take me out, take me away river
Oh, river take me out, take me out to thе unknown
Oh, river take me out, takе me away river
Oh, river take me out, take me out to the unknown
(Out to the unknown)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Woah
Out into the ocean

Water running stronger, rougher
Holding on to any any anything
All I want is to survive it
If I let go, will it be the end of me
Got to move on
Held on too long
Sweep me away

Out into the ocean

Mighty river
Release my soul
I need to see the world
To the unknown
I’ll go against my sorrow, sorrow

Mighty river
Release my soul
Out to the open gold
I can’t stay here forever
In this hollow

Oh river take me out
Take me away river
Oh river take me out
Take me out to the unknown

Oh river take me out
Take me away river
Oh river take me out
Take me out to the unknown

Out into the ocean

The people who are saying this season is bad because “there is no action” or “Thorfinn isn’t a badass” are missing the entire point of this story arc

@mt2r-music

So far it’s one of the best arcs I’ve seen in anime so far. So many good characters it’s breathtaking.

@aaronzaharik8057

I acctully waaaay perfer season 2. As someone who is strongly against war and violence the first season made me really sick because I knew all the action and fighting was so pointless. So I really like the message and the direction the second season is taking.

@AbsurdTurk

As someone who loves Vinland Saga to death; I can understand people having issues with season 2 for not having action like in season 1. From their perspective, it can seem too odd of a tonal shift. Personally, I feel that the direction season 2 and onwards was going to take tonally was heavily foreshadowed back in season 1.
