(At the Pride Lands at Pride Rock, Simba and the Pride Landers are watching a nice view of the Pride Lands in the edge, starting the day on a high note)
*Simba: Ah. What a day to rule a rock.
*Nala: It sure is, King Simba.
*Kion: We're gonna rule the world.
*Kiara: Lions take all.
*Sarabi: Good morning my friends.
*Simba: Good morning mother.
*Sarabi: Hope the Pride Lands is doing well for you.
*Sarafina: Everything is staying in the same shape.
*Timon: Yippy-kai-yay! Who is proud of the big pointy rock?
*Pumbaa: You know it's always me.
*Simba: I always loved Pride Rock since it's very beginning.
*Nala: Duh, we were born here.
*Timon: Pride Rock is the heart of our home.
*Pumbaa: And home where the heart is.
*Rafiki: Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo! All of our proud lionesses always reside in one of the spots.
*Zazu: They really sure do love the home ever since it's establishment.
*Bunga: It been ages since Pride Rock first formed.
*Fuli: What a pride of lions out there.
*Besthe: Every animal in the Pride Lands know that the lions are always the leaders of the savannah.
*Ono: I thought the Circle of Life was the one concept that move us all in one direction or another.
*Zazu: Ono, you know, the Circle of Life is suppose to move us all and we all have to respect it. When we die, we become the grass and the animals eat as the grass. Our bodies become the dust once our journey come to an end.
*Ono: I guess you have a point there, Zazu.
*Kovu: He is right. We're all connected to the great Circle of Life.
*Vitani: And you know the Circle is the one that move us all and have to follow where it steps.
*Simba: Once we respect it, we'll drink some water and hunt for every other animal in the wild.
*Nala: I hunt for a antelope once.
*Kiara: Mind is a gazelle.
*Kovu: Could have been a wildebeest.
*Timon: To all my peeps in the Pride Rock, who want to sing a song about a rock?
*Simba: I do!
*Pumbaa: Count us in!
*Nala: Yeah. The more we sing, the more we'll be entertained!
*Kovu: I'll be pumped up to dance into the rock.
*Vitani: You heard my brother.
*Timon: Alright! Anyone is ready for the song?
