    My daughter died of an overdose. This is the last song on her playlist. I saw her journal from years ago among her belongings.She struggled with her addiction and sometimes it seemed she was conquering. We tried to reach for her for years. "The hands of many must join as one and together we'll cross the river" please love your neighbor as yourself.

    Kinda ironic how a song with an ending about coming together to get over "the river" has people arguing about the true meaning. To me, the song means all of the things people have suggested, with the river being all of these different opinions and people to come together and just agree for once. "It'll take a lot more than words and guns" "a whole lot more than riches and muscle". It doesn't matter how intelligent you are, how strong or rich you are or whether you believe in a god. The greatest challenge for anyone to face is acceptance of themselves and each other, and until that happens we'll never cross "the river" that is the final filter to bring peace to humanity.

      Cross the river like a barrel full of monkeys lifting eachother up Jacobs ladder of angels
      You shed your blood
      and sent your word
      poured out your Spirit
      like a river
      gave me life
      abundantly
      made my eyes so they can see
      in my heart i plant your word
      from all evil do i turn
      Oh help me cross the river
      and come on home to you Forever
      All Together linking arms
      One in Spirit and in Truth
      We look only to You
      Walking Hand in hand
      Together for our God we stand
      And lift eachother with our hands
      In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (Yahweh, Yahushua, Ruach)
      We lift each other up high
      Praise the Father, praise the Son
      Praise the Spirit three in one

    The meaning of this song is clear. It's not about war, God or even the river. It's about needing each other, loving one another and how we can accomplish more if we stop bickering and hating one another and instead came together as one, humans, not race, color, religion or any of the other nonsense that separates humanity to prevent us from growing, loving and peace.

    LYRICS:
    Nature, nurture heaven and home
    Sum of all, and by them, driven
    To conquer every mountain shown
    But I've never crossed the river
    Braved the forests, braved the stone
    Braved the icy winds and fire
    Braved and beat them on my own
    Yet I'm helpless by the river
    Angel, angel, what have I done?
    I've faced the quakes, the wind, the fire
    I've conquered country, crown, and throne
    Why can't I cross this river?
    Angel, angel, what have I done?
    I've faced the quakes, the wind, the fire
    I've conquered country, crown, and throne
    Why can't I cross this river?
    Pay no mind to the battles you've won
    It'll take a lot more than rage and muscle
    Open your heart and hands, my son
    Or you'll never make it over the river
    It'll take a lot more than words and guns
    A whole lot more than riches and muscle
    The hands of the many must join as one
    And together we'll cross the river
    It'll take a lot more than words and guns
    A whole lot more than riches and muscle
    The hands of the many must join as one
    And together we'll cross the river
    (Nature, nurture heaven and home)
    It'll take a lot more than words and guns
    (Sum of all, and by them, driven)
    A whole lot more than riches and muscle
    (To conquer every mountain shown)
    The hands of the many must join as one
    And together we'll cross the river
    (Braved the forests, braved the stone)
    It'll take a lot more than words and guns
    (Braved the icy winds and fire)
    A whole lot more than riches and muscle
    (Braved and beat them on my own)
    The hands of the many must join as one
    And together we'll cross the river
    And together we'll cross the river
    And together we'll cross the river
    Nature, nurture heaven and home
    And together we'll cross the river
    And together we'll cross the river

He realised that nothing good came without hard work and sings with all the words he knows because the change was so huge for him. So massive for me.

    I think the river represents the last lesson we have to learn before we are able to free our mind from the material world.. We can only "cross the river" when we accept ourselves and others with all our flaws and see us as divine beings that we are. To feel the connection between ourselves and everything that surrounds us.

  • @TheElectricBuddha

    The answer is in the title. MJK explores the concept of the ego, pride and self-image in dozens of his songs. A king who has conquered many foes is asking the divine why after all he's conquered and battled can't he find peace and solace. The river is humility and oneness, and that can't be achieved through war.

  • @M._the_model
    @M._the_model 2 года назад +15

    Maynard often references the Tarot in his lyrics. In the cups suit (the water or emotional element), he is referencing the knight of cups. On the card he sits before the river, but only when he reaches the emotional status of King will he cross the river. A king is different than a knight, and in reference to emotions, the emotional maturity of a knight is fleeting and somewhat shallow compared to the King. The knight is longing for long term stability, commitment, that belongs to the King (who has already crossed the river). The knight has been on many journeys where he has won awards, fame, and financial conquest. Yet, he is missing the love in his life. 🙂 The angel in the tarot is seen in the card Temperance, which demonstrates an angel pouring cups in and out of the river, balancing emotions. He is pleading to her for understanding on how to approach love and emotional fulfillment. He draws conclusion at the end that it will take more than talk, and war, and greed, but that by joining together humanity in love we can “all cross the river” together.

    Ok so this song makes me think of 2 things:
    1. The phenomenon called "the impossible task" for those suffering with certain mental illnesses (generally depression, anxiety, and addiction). You find yourself utterly incapable of doing one certain thing that isn't necessarily hard to do but you can't make yourself do it for a reason you don't really understand. This song explains how you really need a good support system to help you get through whatever it is you're battling. It's worth mentioning that the lead singer has had a battle with addiction so I think that that being part of what the song is about is a pretty reasonable guess
    2. This song heavily reminds me of the show Hell On Wheels. It makes me think of all the people working in tandem (and even in opposition to each other) to get the system that would forever tie the United States together in place.

    Most of their songs can be interpreted in many ways. A metaphor is a metaphor; you get out of it what you put in. There should be no argument to what this song is about. Its about you. You decide.

    Arcee: Hey partner, heck of a view you got up here. If there's even a small chance your spark is out there listening, well, we could really use you, Cliff. Seems like everyday a new Decepticon arrives on the scene. We're outnumbered and outgunned. Yeah, I know what you'd say, "Sounds like a fair fight", and if that's the world we live in... so be it.
    Optimus: Wisdom cannot be granted, Arcee. It must be earned. Sometimes at a cost.

    Pain teaches us to not harm one another. Anger teaches forgiveness. Ignorance teaches us how to seek knowledge. Love teaches us strength. Dissonance teaches acceptance. Every thing that is viewed as a negative aspect in this life is actually the greatest tools of learning true knowledge. We must let go in order to hold on. The more you push and fight the weaker you become. If you thing something to be an obstacle it remains as one. When you realize it truly is not in your way you find the path opens

    Nature, nurture, heaven, and home
    Sum of all, and by them, driven
    To conquer every mountain shown
    But I've never crossed the river
    Braved the forests, braved the stone
    Braved the icy winds and fire
    Braved and beat them on my own
    Yet I'm helpless by the river
    Angel, angel, what have I done?
    I've faced the quakes, the wind, the fire
    I've conquered country, crown, and throne
    Why can't I cross this river?

    Pay no mind to the battles you've won
    It'll take a lot more than rage and muscle
    Open your heart and hands, my son
    Or you'll never make it over the river
    It'll take a lot more than words and guns
    A whole lot more than riches and muscle
    The hands of the many must join as one
    And together we'll cross the river

      I like to think this song is primus talking directly to Megatron, specifically the part that says "open your heart and hands my son, or you'll never make it over the river." Megatron wants to rule Cybertron on his own, but he won't be able to achieve his perfect empire if he doesn't set aside his own selfish interests and unify Cybertron. Basically Megatron just wants to rule a divided Cybertron, but he won't be able to do anything unless "the hands of the many must join as one"

    the old soldier rode on, his ragged coat his only protection from the drizzling rain. his pistol sat in it's well worn leather, waiting to be used. the forest gave way to plains as he remembered fallen friends and his betrayer. Bullets tore at the wind around him as he wandered. he fired, adding another soul to his burden. he cocked his weapon and fired again. another body for the pyre. His betrayer was desperate, sending wave after wave of thugs. the old soldier smiled, reloaded his weapon and cut like a scythe through the gale of bullets. the thugs emptied their weapons and still the soldier strode slowly onwards. they silently watched in fear of this madman, as he finally reached his old friend, his judas... and together they crossed the river.
