Lyrics and translation

Original

One time I took a swim in the Nile

I swam the whole way, I didn't turn around

Man, I swear

It made me relax when I came down

I felt liberated like free birds, I'm stimulated now

Plunging away 'less my body's on top

All of these currents might cost me my life right now

When danger finds me, it follows with tides

Many miles ahead of me, still I'm in stride

She said

Hey little buddy, where you goin'?

I'm not sure of how to know I'm still motion

This ain't regular, I seen regular

These streams may take me out to the ocean

Told myself if I dive in it without precaution of a life jacket

Then I'll dive in it 'til I'm exhausted and I'm type lacking

Waistline on four deep, senses on forty

Feel like there's four of me

One time, I took a swim in the Nile (one time, I took in a swim in the Nile)

I swam the whole way, I didn't turn around

Man, I swear (I swear)

It made me relax when I came down (when I came down)

I felt liberated like free birds, I'm stimulated now (stimulated)

Plunging away 'less my body's on top (stimulated, stimulated now)

All of these currents might cost me my life right now (right now, right now)

Where danger finds me, it follows with tides (follows with tides)

Many miles ahead of me, still I'm in stride

That's some good

Got the Nile runnin' through my body

Look at my natural, I'm so exotic

Darker the berry, sweeter the fruit

Deeper the wounded, deeper the roots

Nubian doused in brown, I'm lounging in it

Fountain of Youth, I said I'm drowning in it

I'm in the Nile, deep in denial

I'm in the Nile, deep in denial

That's some good
