No Other Way

[KERCHAK]
My worst fear
I hold it now
I always knew that this would happen
Though he's a child it's in his blood
And he will grow
So now it's clear what I must do
I know too well what he'll become
For as long as I draw breath
I'll remember

[KALA]
Where's Tarzan?
Where is he?

[KERCHAK]
No turning back
What's done is done
I have seen what they can do
He can't be saved by you, by me
It's too late

[KALA]
No, I won't let you do this
How can you think?

[KERCHAK]
No more fighting I'll be obeyed
I'll stand my ground
Don't dare defy me
I know his kind
I know the truth
I will protect us
No other way
Open your eyes
It's there to see
No other way
He's not one of us
And never will be

[KALA]
Just listen to me

[KERCHAK]
No more to say
He is what he is
And that won't change
There's no other way
I am leaving him here
And here he'll stay

[KALA]
He's just a child

[KERCHAK]
He was up in the trees
Making a weapon
And in time it is us
He will hurt

[KALA]
No

[KERCHAK]
Nothing and no one
Will stop him becoming
What he is
And was by blood

No other way
He won't come between me
And those I loved
Believe me when I say
With my body and soul
This I vow

[KALA]
But I need him

[KERCHAK]
No, no other way
In spite of your pain
It will be done
No matter what you say
He never was or could be
Be my son
There is no other way
I won't let him near
The rest of the tribe again

[KALA]
I understand

[KERCHAK]
Where are you going?

Kala
To find him
We'll live away from the family

[KERCHAK]
For how long?

[KALA]
For as long as he needs me

[KERCHAK]
You can't
I won't be able to protect you
Kala don't do this
Please

[KALA]
Kerchak I'm his mother

[KERCHAK]
No other way
I should have done this before
Long ago
And from today
Though they'll think of me cruel
They won't know
There was no other way
