Lyrics:
Whispers of who I was, who I’m meant to be
They’re constantly echoing
And beckoning
Cast my home aside, lead me into the sky
Just realize what our destiny holds
Our stories untold
Just waiting to rise
Guided blindly by shadows within the dark
Is this what’s become of me?
An enemy?
Cast my sight away, lead me into the night
Can’t fight away what has taken control
Of all that I know
And stolen my light
With this burden I bear, I’m alone
There’s so many mistakes to atone
You deserve so much better than this broken soul
I must fight this battle on my own
But I’ll prove to you how I have grown
Cast the past into the darkness that still lies
To be with you, I will do what I must
I’ll hold tight your trust
I’ll be by your side
Don’t be afraid, what was lost can be found
Hear what I say, don’t let go of my hand
Our futures unplanned
Our destinies bound

    Riku is more complex than he let's on. This song perfectly catch his past experiences and lingering thoughts about the people he care about, his inner dilemma in-between the light and dark. From unwintting pawn of darkness, envolving to Keyblade Master.

    I remember when I was 1st introduced to KH I, I didn't like Riku b/c he was such a jerk to Sora and was a bad guy for the time being, but throughout the game's journey, he ended up having the most fleshed out, developed character arc. He became someone who got lost in the wrong path, found redemption, and overall grew into a respected, admirable character. Every experience he hurdled through made him humble and strong. I really like Riku. He's my 3rd favorite character in the series.

    I also really like how his redemption wasn't just "ok, I realize I was wrong let me just throw away my past and start over". Instead it was a struggle of him accepting himself and his flaws while still fighting through those flaws. Not fighting to get rid of them, but fighting to adapt them into strengths

    It's weird how we all have a Riku in our hearts. The boy was tempted by the shadows, casted away, unable to see Light again, and was swallowed by Darkness. He lost his identity, and instead, was filled with wrath, anger, and negativity. But after many falls, he found his way back to who he's meant to be. And you can't tell me that you don't feel that way. If you say you didn't feel what he felt, you'd be the biggest liar. No one really knows who they are, once they surrendered to Darkness, judgement, and think of themselves as an outcast, different. But it is by fighting off this Darkness that we make it into ourselves. It..gets better. It got better for Riku, then..it must get better for us, right..?

    This song is really hit the Riku's story. Riku sure really care for Sora "Cast my home aside..." He do that for gain power to protect Sora. Gain a power, but his light is faded. "Stolen my light.." "You deserve so much better than this broken soul,... " Yet still Sora accepts Riku tho'. In the KH3, Riku does that again... In the fight where everyone is cast away by the shadows. I love this song.

    Riku is probably my favourite character in KH, just from the fact of what this poor guy has to go through and what he's done. He's made mistakes that he feels he can't take back, despite having friends that forgive him for what he did because they understood the situation. He went through a year of being in the shadows just to help one friend have a somewhat normal life, not even knowing if his own would be capable of being normal. He's one of the few characters to use darkness willingly while still being on the side of light.

    This song truly helps me relate to Riku on a deep level, as I see myself as a guardian at heart for those I love and care for first and foremost. "Cast the past into the darkness that still lies. To be with you, I will do what I must. I'll hold tight your trust. I'll be by your side. Don't be afraid, what was lost can be found. Hear what I say, don't let go of my hand. Our future unplanned. Our destinies bound." This speaks true to my eternal love and devotion that exists in my heart for those closest to my heart. May Your Heart be Your Guiding Key. Riku truly has made mistakes, something else I can relate to as I too was blinded in the past. It left me bigoted without realizing it and took time to be the good man I always wanted to be, but couldn't see in myself at the time. Thankfully I had help from those close to me who never gave up on me, even when I felt they would have been justified to do so. Yet, Riku never gave up on righting his wrongs however he could and most importantly doing everything he could for his friends. Something I can also relate to. Riku has earned his redemption as a Redeemed Guardian, who has grown from his mistakes into wielding both light and darkness to protect those precious to him. I hope to be like him in that regard...Always. To always be worthy of those precious to me, despite my mistakes and failings.

    You know, something I don't think many people realize: Riku shared a Paopu fruit with Sora in the first game. Yeah, he was joking that Sora should share it with Kairi, but he still technically "shared" it. So according to the legend of the Paopu fruit, Riku and Sora's destinies are forever intertwined.

I like the fact you get to play as him in KH3 even though it's only for a couple of boss fight's. If Square Enix makes a KH4 I know Riku would be in it!

    Am I the only one to get a strong SoRiku™ vibe from this song ? I mean the lyrics: "You deserves so much than this broken soul", "To be with you, I will do what I must", "I'll hold thigh tout trust", "I'll be by your side", "Don't let go of my hand", "Our destinies bound" are adressed to Sora right ? And they don't have a platonic™ vibe to me... Anyway, the song is great and paints Riku in a total accurate way (and his feelings for Sora too 😉).

As the games kept on continuing I saw things that related to me as well. Riku have Sora as his best friend, his light to say it like this. And Sora forgives Riku for what he's done and helped him to the path of light. I have someone like Sora as well, and I'm still greatful to have a friend like that. The Kingdom Hearts games did open me up for some reason to understand myself, and I will always love the games
