Moss under paws and leaves like gold Forest breathing where our story’s told You stand in front, eyes steady, true Teaching me how the wild moves through You said “Stay close when the wind gets loud But don’t you ever bow your head down” Your shadow’s big, but I’m learning how To carry fire just like you now Mother and daughter wolf, blood and bone Howling the same song the night has known You showed me strength, you showed me grace Two hearts beating in the same wild place Mother and daughter wolf, we don’t break Born from the forest, born to awake You taught me when to run, when to stand How to read tracks in the moonlit sand I was small steps behind your stride Now I’m walking tall right by your side If the world gets cold and the hunters call I’ll stand where you stand, I won’t fall Your fur, my fur, same silver light You’re my first home, my guiding night Mother and daughter wolf, blood and bone Howling the same song the night has known From broken leaves to stars above We are wild, we are love Mother and daughter wolf, we don’t break Born from the forest, born to awake Side by side in the morning dew The forest knows — I’m still just you
