The river is famous to the fish
Like the world is famous to us
Without one, the other would not exist
It is our home, our territory, among all chaos
Among the failing and the precarious wreck
Our own rivers are indispensable to our survival
They are the difference between failure or success
For our habitat is our safety
A place to lock the doors and hide away
From the predators stalking their prey
And like a river to the fish
Or the sky to the birds
Our homegrown dwelling
Is survival, worth, prosperity
And will forever anchor our legacy
