[Intro] (Soft guitar plucking, light and airy) Ooooh, into the wild… Ooooh, the world is calling… [Verse 1: Dreaming of the Outside] My father’s tales painted skies so wide, Cities of gold where the dreamers reside. He spoke of rivers that sparkled like glass, Of open roads and adventures that last. In the Silverleaf, the trees would sigh, But my heart sang songs of a brighter sky. [Pre-Chorus 1] What’s beyond the forest’s edge? A life I’ve yet to claim. The stars above, they pull and pledge, A whisper of my name. [Chorus] Ohhhh, Into the wild, where the dreams never end, The world’s an open hand to lend. Every shadow, every light, Holds the secrets of the night. Mmmhmmmm..... [Verse 2: The Struggles of Adolescence] But the wanderlust turned to aching inside, My laughter dimmed, I could barely abide. The walls of the forest felt closer each day, A life unfinished, slipping away. My mother wept, her voice so kind, “Stay with us, love, don’t leave us behind.” [Pre-Chorus 2] But I believed the cure was near, Beyond the grove’s embrace. A leap into the vast frontier, To find my missing place. [Chorus] Ohhhh, Into the wild, where the dreams never end, The world’s an open hand to lend. Every shadow, every light, Holds the secrets of the night. Mmmhmmmm..... [Bridge: Reality Sets In] The streets of Eastgarde were cold and cruel, Chasing dreams, but I played the fool. Selling myself just to stay alive, A wanderer’s heart, barely survived. Velveteen found me, gave me my name, A home, a purpose, a spark in the flame. [Instrumental] [Build] [Pre-drop] [Verse 3: A New Hope] Now my siblings are here, they carry me through, Together we’ve built something honest and true. Velveteen’s halls are filled with light, The city shines brighter, the future feels right. From dreams of wonder to a life I can claim, I’ve found my place, and I’m proud of my name!!! [Final Pre-Chorus 3] Ohhh what’s beyond the forest’s edge? I’ve seen its joy, its pain. But here I stand, no need to pledge— I’ve found my home again. [Final Chorus] Into the wild, where the dreams never end, The world’s an open hand to lend. Every shadow, every light, Led me home through the night. [Outro] Ooooh, into the wild… Ooooh, I’ve found my calling… Ooooh, into the wild… Ooooh, the world is mine.
