Wild Child Lyrics

Wild Child

Brett Dennen wrote the songs for his Smoke and Mirrors album whilst staying in a small town up in the mountains of Tuolumne Country, northern California. The record's lead single finds him singing about being outside, where the landscape is rugged and untamed. "You only know yourself until you're in a wild place," he told American Songwriter magazine. "Being out in nature will do that. That was the inspiration for the song."

"But really, the song is about trying not to conform, or trying to please everybody," he added. "I wrote that song as a mantra or an anthem, to remind myself that I'm the one in charge."
