[KORIN] Hmm So you have it too That spark in your eye Ready to try something new [FLEMING] Not really, I'm walking away [KORIN] But we're the same Holding on to shards of hope In an anxious world Looking through a telescope Searching for a— [FLEMING] No, you don't know me [KORIN] Well, why don't you show me your stance This is your chance, cause I have a plan You could do nothing Trapped by a cruel and callous king Or we could escape this place And turn and face the storm [FLEMING] But how? [KORIN] We'll go and discover a blue storm Its powers will help us defeat this king And break his control And save the ones wе love [FLEMING] But that's just a legend [KORIN] Wеll, I intend on saving my family It's a chance I'll have to take [FLEMING] Except you're stuck here in prison That plan got you here in the first place [KORIN] Just a minor setback [FLEMING] And why should I go risk my life? It's already hard enough without chasing some crazy fantasy [KORIN] Well, I plan to be the one who takes the leap Because when the light breaks through the dark And the shadows disappear It's as bold and as bright as the morning sun All you can do is drop your doubts and run right now Right to the earth [FLEMING] Do you even know what you're asking me to do? How much is on the line if this legend isn't true? There's no way it's worth it I'd rather just take every day as it is [KORIN, FLEMING, BOTH] You make it sound like we have to stay, but we don't Yes, we do We could go You're confused All to gain All to lose, I can't Take the risk Everything On the line Think about Every Time it's obvious When the light breaks through the dark (Here you go with this again) And the shadows disappear (It just doesn't make any sense) It's as bold and as bright as the morning sun All you can do is drop your doubts and— [FLEMING] Wait! 'Cause caution keeps you alive [KORIN] But are you really living when every action is controlled by your fear Like, trust me, I'm terrified But, still I'll try this anyway For the chance at better days Instead of just watching the years go by Be daring enough to fall or fly It's all your choice, your say [FLEMING] This is crazy Absolutely insane Am I really doing this? But what if someone else gets hurt, or worse, or [KORIN] What if we win? [KORIN & FLEMING] What if we win? [FLEMING] What if we win? Ok, I'm in
