Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Take one step
Out the door
Look around
For a whole lot more
[Verse 2]
Off in the distance
A fire burn bright
We make decisions
That's what we do, that's what we do
[Verse 3]
Wild life
Wild life
When it's bad
It ain't bad enough
[Verse 4]
I'll be your one
Your one and only
Like animals
Locked in the zoo
Oh give me freedom
At day and night
No one to tell me
What to do
[Verse 5]
Off in the distance
Fire burn bright
We make decisions
[Verse 6]
Wild life
Wild life
When it's bad
It ain't bad enough
[Verse 7]
I got to learn
Some respect
That's what I have
I have for you
Motivation
It comes and goes
But the questions
They stay alive
[Verse 8]
Wild life
Wild life
When it's bad
It ain't bad enough
