Go out there and fight!

A world where smog flies in the skies

No birds at all that will survive

All things share the same breath 

All men

All size

Yet we say it’s okay 

Like it’s a lie 

Air shares its spirit

With all it supports

And here we are 

Willing to purport

Face the reality 

It’s set in stone

12.7 billion  tons by China alone 

Our life 2 degrees higher

2 times even more fire

If you say it’s okay 

Then succumb do death’s choir

10 years of warning

No progress was made

Do we care or are we just too afraid?

Words are meaningless

Actions matter the most

Don’t think that crying 

Makes you less guilty 

About the polar bears dying

You played a part

You owe the world

So get out there or we beg for new homes

It’s not long until

The amazon becomes history

It’s not long until

Our damnation’s no mystery

It’s not long until

We can’t recov

So go out there and fight

For the world that we love
