Our Planet

[Verse 1: Chris Webby] How will the future generations see us? We had a choice, knew the stakes Saw the signs, had the science to teach us But we chose money over all else We saw it creeping up, but we never sought help Now we got a climate crisis, we got shorter seasons We got mass extinction, we got coral bleaching We got glaciers melting, we got oil leaking While the sizes of the beaches on our shores decreasing We got heatwaves and droughts while the forest's burning All in the name, but it's corporate earning The poor get sicker, the rich get richer The lifespan of the planet ticks down quicker Killing mother nature on a quest to get the paper Now almost everything is looking critically in danger Well, except humans, but it's easy to tell The end result of killing nature will be killing ourselves Yeah, we paid paradise if the price is right for a new world But got no wildlife in sight What a place to grow up in, can't shoot for nothing If you can't see the stars in the sky at night I mean, we live in an artificial society Disconnected from what's really happening entirely The news don't talk about it, politicians keep it quietly Under the rug for campaign fund robbery And where we heading, yo, it really make me sick But most don't even know, I guess ignorance is bliss But that ignorance is why we got these problems that exist If we rose up as a people and started to give a shit We'd accomplish anything if we just made a decision And started doing something instead of complaining and bitching 'Cause regardless of our views, of our race or religion We all share the same place that we live in Yeah [Chorus: Bria Lee] This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York Island From the Redwood forests to the Gulf Stream water This land was made for you and me This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York Island From the Redwood forests to the Gulf Stream water This land was made for you and me [Verse 2: Chris Webby] If we lose the Amazon, we lose the lungs of the planet How the Hell ain't everyone in a panic? 'Cause we're losing it faster than ever I hope that path will get better But it's feeling more like we've been going backwards instead of the right way At the rate of all the coral declines In just a matter of a time, there'll be no Nemo to find The Oceans as a whole are on the brink of collapse Choked out by trash as the fisheries crash With these plastic-covered beaches running up and down the coastline Pretty soon, there'll be no time But we never learn 'til it's too late Until there's no moves to make Don't believe me? Then just you wait We fight wars over oil with millions slaughtered Just imagine when we're killing for water, real talk We polluting everything that we drink and breathe Time to re-prioritize what we think we need All this human development, giving everybody condos Now the animals don't got homes Clear cutting ancient forests, where they used to hunt Taking everything they needed and we used it up Now they look like refugees with no place to go See 'em wandering, confused, as they pace the road That cut through their whole world And they span the land like asphalt veins as human demands expand Until they gone for good by the hand of man Whether poached or pushed out, they don't stand a chance Better take another look Or the only elephants and lions that your kid's will see is in the pages of a book Yeah, we all just trying to pay our bills but just do your part 'Cause there's a lot worse saved than still I know that making changes is hard to do But this change has got to start with you Yeah [Chorus: Bria Lee] This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York Island From the Redwood forests to the Gulf Stream water This land was made for you and me This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York Island From the Redwood forests to the Gulf Stream water This land was made for you and me This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York Island From the Redwood forests to the Gulf Stream water This land was made for you and me
