K'Jon – On the Ocean Lyrics

Hip Hop/Rap

Man,
The moment I been waiting on
And my soul is over flowing
With anxieties and expectations
I'm full of desires
I just want it so bad
You know
And it just seem so real
It's right there
I just want reach out and touch it
Before it all disappears

[Verse:]
Sometimes
It feels like
Everything
Is passin' me by
Every now and then
It feels like (feels like)
My ship has gone and sailed away
But I
I gonna be strong (gotta be strong)
Gotta hold on
It won't be too long

[Chorus:]
Now the tide is coming near
I see the waves flowing
Out there on the ocean
I know my ship is coming in
Just pass the horizon
And right where the sky ends
Cause out there on the ocean
Know my ship is coming in
But don't leave me hanging
I've been waiting to long
But this moment
My ship has finally come

[Verse:]
I would travel to the seven seas
(I would even go)
I would even go wherever the wind blows me
(I'll do anything)
I'll do anything to find my destiny
It's like fightin' with gravity
And it's bringin' me down
If this world was really round then tell me how

It's just a moment for you to come around

[Chorus:]
Now the tide is coming near
I see the waves flowing
Out there on the ocean
I know my ship is coming in (coming in baby)
Just pass the horizon
And right where the sky ends
Cause out there on the ocean
Know my ship is coming in
But don't leave me hanging
I've been waiting to long
But this moment
My ship has finally come

[Bridge:]
Finally you come (around)
Around, around
I said finally baby

Finally you come (around)
Around, around

Finally you come around, come around baby

Finally you
Finally you come

Said finally you come around (around)

Now the tide is coming near (now the tide is coming in)
I see the waves flowing
Out there on the ocean
I know my ship is coming in (and I know my ship is coming in baby)
Just pass the horizon
(And where) And right where the sky ends
Cause out there on the ocean
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, is coming in
Been waiting to long
But this moment
My ship has finally come

Finally you come (around)
Around, around [till fade]

    This is a universal song and I believe it takes on a personal meaning for one who listens to it. It speaks about life goals(love ,family, finance, peace etc.) It's just a beautiful song that comes every once in awhile. Success & blessings to this young man for giving us this particular song.

    Your epiphany is as close as you allow it to be. Sometimes when you feel all is lost, if you have faith in yourself or your God, you can see the light,or as K'jon puts it " your ship is either on it's way or has just come in. Now your search is over. Some times your ship coming in, could mean you finally see that people can sometimes let you down and thats could be a shinning light for you. A message*

    All right y'all I canceled my pity party. Cause I know my ship is coming in. My God I thank you for inspiring my brother to express what you would have for your children to know. Prophets and messengers are still among us. Praise God for his infinite wisdom and K'Jon for hearing and obeying then spreading the message!

    K'Jon God bless you for a most beautiful song. It makes me think of my youngest child who passed away at the age of 19 in an accident. The lyrics tell me that even though he is gone, he out there on the ocean on a ship, that will one day come for me and he'll be there waiting for me. Immense love for you. May you continue to be blessed. Thank you

    I realize song isn't a gospel song, but the lyrics give me some inspiration and the way he sings the song with so much passion. The lyrics are very visual and me as a culture need more songs like this. It leaves things to your imagination, pure and simple.

    This song inspirationally reminds me of leaving this world to another one. That world is when my ship is coming in...the ocean is eternity. As Christians, I think we all look forward to when our ship finally comes in...

    My mom just recently passed away but she loved this song everytime I played it in my car. I decided during the family hour to play this song, it was so heartwarming to know that her ship had finally come in. Thanks so much for this beautiful song.

    This song has been my inspiration of 2010 and 2011. It says everything I feel in my life and about my future.
  • Rhonda Monique
    very beautiful.. this song has such a deep metaphoric meaning for me right now and it couldn't have delivered better. my Fiance's in jail right now so when K'Jon spoke of the ship coming in I instantly related the two. this song impulses hope &peace. The song read my soul. I love it!
  • Joyce Woodson
    This song is very meaningful. It defines an act of "A BLESSING FROM GOD." I say this because K'Jon says "I Just Want To Reach Out And Touch It, Before It Disappears, and then the awesome answer, "My Ship IS Finally Come." I had a love one funeralized and this song came out of the speakers of the Chapel. Some might say that did not fit. But it did me good to know when your body is basically just bone, your ship is your "New Home." I Feel This Awesome Song. Thanks K'Jon
