[Producer: Toni Maxx] "August 7, 1947. One hundred and one days. Four thousand, three hundred miles. Six men on a raft of balsa wood, chasing the setting sun across the endless Pacific. The Kon-Tiki has arrived." [Verse 1] The heavy wood is tied together tight with rugged rope, We navigate the water with a heavy sense of hope. The ocean is a master we are learning how to cope, We ride the massive current on a terrifying slope. [Pre-Chorus] The ancient gods are watching from the starry sky above, We leave behind the safety of the continent we love. We test the heavy limit and we give a mighty shove, And fly across the water like a liberated dove. [Chorus] Oh, ride upon the water where the ancient legends sleep! The courage of the sailor is incredibly so deep! We conquer every mountain that the angry oceans keep! The harvest of discovery is what we finally reap! [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] The blazing sun is beating on the salty, burning skin, We listen to the water and the heavy, roaring din. We fight against the current that is trying hard to win, A beautiful adventure where the crazy tales begin. [Pre-Chorus] The ancient gods are watching from the starry sky above, We leave behind the safety of the continent we love. We test the heavy limit and we give a mighty shove, And fly across the water like a liberated dove. [Chorus] Oh, ride upon the water where the ancient legends sleep! The courage of the sailor is incredibly so deep! We conquer every mountain that the angry oceans keep! The harvest of discovery is what we finally reap! [Epic Bridge] The storm is slowly brewing in the dark and heavy night, We battle with the darkness and we pray to see the light. We hold the heavy rigging with a terrifying might, And sail into the morning with an unrestricted sight! [Upward Modulation / Massive Drum Fill] [Final Chorus] Oh, ride upon the water where the ancient legends sleep! The courage of the sailor is incredibly so deep! We conquer every mountain that the angry oceans keep! The harvest of discovery is what we finally reap! [Outro] The island is appearing on the heavy, blue horizon, The journey of a lifetime is completely unsurprising. The spirit of the ocean is continually rising, A beautifully magical and wonderful baptizing.
