The Wild Within

Oh, the wild within me calls,

As I hear the distant cry,

Of the wind through the trees,

And the eagle soaring high.

The scent of the earth,

And the rustle of leaves,

Ignites a flame in my soul,

And makes my heart believe.

Believe in the power,

Of the untamed spirit,

The freedom of the wild,

And the strength to endure it.

The call of the wild is strong,

And I feel it deep within,

A primal force that beckons me,

To shed the skin I'm in.

For in the wilderness,

Lies the truth of who we are,

And in the midst of the untamed,

We can finally raise the bar.

So let us heed the call,

Of the wild within our hearts,

And let it guide us on our journey,

To find our truest parts.

For in the wild we find our strength,

And in the unknown we grow,

And when we listen to the call,

Our true selves begin to show.
