A remix made by Tomoya Ohtani appears in the Sonic Forces prequel add-on "Episode Shadow" for the stage Mystic Jungle: Eggman's Facility, featuring somewhat clearer vocals and more of an emphasis on guitars (provided by Jun Senoue), though lacking the vocals at the beginning of the song.

Lyrics

(Oh yeah, hurry to unexplored land
Don't mind the steep slopes or any obstacles)

Oh yeah, hurry to the unexplored land
I'm not scared at all
Are you scared of something?
Oh yeah, hurry to the unexplored land
I don't mind these walls or any obstacles
Oh yeah, hurry to the unexplored land
I'm not scared at all
And I don't wanna hear you

I don't wanna hear you (x2)

Shadow, don't make me upset
I don't wanna hear you
Shadow, don't make me upset
You are frightened of something

Oh yeah, hurry to the unexplored land
I don't mind these walls or any obstacles
Oh yeah, hurry to the unexplored land
I'm not scared at all
I don't wanna hear you

Shadow, don't make me upset
Shadow, don't make me upset

Oh yeah, hurry to the unexplored land
I'm not scared at all
Are you scared of something?
Oh yeah, hurry to the unexplored land
I don't mind these walls or any obstacles
Oh yeah, hurry to the unexplored land
I'm not scared at all
And I don't wanna hear you

I don't wanna hear you..

Connection to character or level

Oh yeah, hurry to the unexplored land // I'm not scared at all // Are you scared of something? – Shadow is determined to save Rouge, or at the very least the Chaos Emeralds she stole, with even the fact that Prison Island is about to explode not deterring him from his mission.
Shadow, don't make me upset // I don't wanna hear you – Possible foreshadowing that Maria's last words for Shadow were false and that he was coming close to violating Maria's true last words.
Shadow, don't make me upset // You are hiding something – Possible foreshadowing that Shadow suspects Rouge of being a spy for GUN.
