We all have an adventure,
Deep in our chest
Thrumming in heartbeats,
The desire never rests.
Pushing us forward,
Over thousands of years
To the undiscovered country,
Defeating our fears.
Our world now seeks to silence
This primal call,
Lock us in their steps,
And crush us if we fall;
But on starry night,
We still look up and dream
Of when all was new,
Our planet, unseen.
We die when we suppress
The adventurer's longing,
We must fight to reclaim,
What time has stolen;
For we will never continue
To grow and evolve
As long as we silence
The cry in us all.
