It wasn't even a trail But we climbed it For miles and miles We were tireless Soldiers of the Wood Pressing on With heavy legs and pounding hearts We reached the summit Space there was slim and the rocks were near the soil Made the trees thin We rested, just for a second Out of water We didn't worry I smiled, for I was alive Every breath: A gift from the Wild THIS IS WHAT WE LIVE FOR! The primordial woods Deep forests and even deeper thoughts The only time we got along My dad and I We're hiking Tearing peacefully across the ridge It wasn't even a trail, but THIS IS WHAT WE WERE BORN FOR!

Bandit Trail
It wasn't even a trail But we climbed it For miles and miles We were tireless Soldiers of the Wood Pressing on With heavy legs and pounding hearts We reached the summit Space there was slim and the rocks were near the soil Made the trees thin We rested, just for a second Out of water We didn't worry I smiled, for I was alive Every breath: A gift from the Wild THIS IS WHAT WE LIVE FOR! The primordial woods Deep forests and even deeper thoughts The only time we got along My dad and I We're hiking Tearing peacefully across the ridge It wasn't even a trail, but THIS IS WHAT WE WERE BORN FOR!
About hiking the so-called "Bandit's Trail" in Linville Gorge, NC with my dad
