Eh I By - I'll Choose the Bear Lyrics

Out in the woods, the sun's sinking low,
The air feels heavy, but I already know,
It's not the predator that I fear the most,
It's the man who calls himself a harmless ghost.

Claws and teeth, they tell their truth,
But a smile can lie and steal your youth.
Nature's wild, but it's fair,
So if I must choose, I'll choose the bear.

Give me the beast, with its primal roar,
Its honesty shakes me to the core.
No hidden games, no cruel disguise,
Just instinct clear in its amber eyes.
I'll take the bear, I'll take the night,
Over a shadow with hands too tight.

The bear won't charm me with a sweetened tongue,
It won't mock my strength or the songs I've sung.
It won't pretend to be my guide,
Only to take the path where I'm pushed aside.

A forest growls, it doesn't deceive,
But the human mind, it can't believe.
I'd rather face what's wild and rare,
So if I must choose, I'll choose the bear.

Give me the beast, with its primal roar,
Its honesty shakes me to the core.
No hidden games, no cruel disguise,
Just instinct clear in its amber eyes.
I'll take the bear, I'll take the night,
Over a shadow with hands too tight.

Let the wilderness take me whole,
For it doesn't ask to own my soul.
A predator's truth is pure and clean,
Not like the faces behind the screen.
Let me run with what I know,
Instead of fearing what won't show.

Give me the beast, with its primal roar,
Its honesty shakes me to the core.
No hidden games, no cruel disguise,
Just instinct clear in its amber eyes.
I'll take the bear, I'll take the night,
Over a shadow with hands too tight.

Out in the woods, I've made my stand,
I trust the earth more than man's hand.
Nature's wild, but it's fair,
So when I must choose, I choose the bear.
