J. Han - Riverside [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: J. Han]
Good morning! Time to rise and shine; come on, wake-up!
Your eyes are barely open; you need to go wash your face-up!
You cannot call-in sick today, you are not a featherweight
People are depending on you for food on their dinner plate
This job’s never easy, but a burden I must take-up
No room to be a flaker, hater, make mistakes or hiccups
Shoulders feeling achy; man, I just wanna forsake it all!
If I had it my way, I would really stop and break it off!
Come on, shake it off. Take a breather -- woosah
Refocus, break your fast -- put the fruit into the juicer
Or you could prolly look into the fridge and find some OJ
Fire-up that ambition of yours, where’s the propane?
It’s funday Monday time to wear Egyptian-blue socks!
Utah, crank the jazz-up -- lemme hear the “ooh-aahs.”
Don’t forget the croutons -- crucial for the salad -- okay
I’m ready for the day, grab the daily, and I’m on my way!

[Hook: Jae Jin]
I wanna go to the riverside
Lay my burdens down & keep my arms open wide
Ooh Lord, are you really here?
I lay my burdens down & keep my arms open wide
I’m gonna shout cause I know that you’re my King!
I’m gonna dance cause my life is safe in your wings
I’m gonna sing a little melody of praise!

[Verse 2: J. Han]
Whether you’re driving, walking, riding on a bike over to work
It sure helps to be joyful; shall I repeat my words?
Let’s try to see the bigger picture -- hopefully it helps
But if not, this tip flops and I’m seen as a whelp
Oh well, whatever helps you to get through the day
Let’s try to apply something new -- break the monotony!
A new brew of coffee; no USB, use floppy;
Forget your Civic or Corolla, go find a jalopy!
But the main problem is probably your boss
It’s hard to respect ‘em when they’re acting like applesauce
Deadlines on deadlines, oh wait! more deadlines;
Suffocated with emails all day from dawn to bedtime
The daily grind, yea we all go through it
Going through the motion is so effortless and stupid
Refocus! This is bigger than ourselves
Keep your head up to the heavens though it feels like you’re in hell

[Hook]

[Bridge]
Time to put in work; time to man-up (wake up!)
Time to put in work; time to man-up (wake up!)
Time to put in work; time to man-up (wake up!)
We cannot waste our lives away, we got ourselves a mission!
Go and get it; keep on fighting (wake up!)
Go and get it; keep on fighting (wake up!)
Go and get it; keep on fighting (wake up!)
We cannot waste our lives away, we got ourselves a mission!
