The River by SIGHT UNSEEN Hard Rock

They tried to drag us under, but we chose the current. This isn't surrender—this is rebellion with rhythm.
This song is about those moments when you finally stop asking permission. When you push back, speak up, and take your own path—no matter who it offends. The River runs deep with defiance. It’s about the fire inside that refuses to be tamed, the quiet rage that turns into motion, and the choice to rise instead of drown.
If you’ve ever walked away from what was expected to protect who you really are—this one's yours.

🎸 SIGHT UNSEEN is an independent Australian hard rock band creating powerful, original music for true rock fans.
Raw guitars, real lyrics, and no compromises — this is hard rock the way it was meant to be heard.

Lyrics

THE RIVER (LYRICS)
Sometimes I look back I'm proud of what I see
One hell of a track always been free
I'm not afraid of what's to come
Feel like my slate is clean
Great times on my own no regrets where I been

(CHORUS)
When the time comes I'll head down the river
Might head down the river when the time is right
When the time comes I'll head down the river
Might head down the river when the time is right

I'll do it alone on my terms
I've got a plan one thing I've learned
I know I can yeh I'll see it through
Can't depend on no one
I'll be on my own till my race is run

(CHORUS)

(SOLO)

(CHORUS)
