What is the meaning behind Anchors Away?

Don’t fight the currents of life allow yourself to float and go where your destiny carries you. Sometimes people fight it and feel like they have to be in control of everything. It’s just a way of saying let go of everything sometimes and let life take you and you might not be so stressed out.
