stand

unite together
fight together
we are the ones
who die together

get up, fall down,
go back to the battle grounds
for now, once more
it's our Earth we fight for

we wont fight for glory,
and the battle will be gorey,
but we fight for our lives
with guns and knives

because we are the ones
who were given the guns
by the people before
who fought this same war

our battle will rage
no matter the age
until one day we're free
all of you, and me

there is a world to protect,
down to every last insect,
and bloodshed there will be
for the birds and the bees

rise up tall, for the future
and for every last creature
our planet is failing
don't just stand there wailing

be what we need,
don't just see it on your feed,
watching wont do anything,
but one voice can be everything

saftey is upstream
until then let's kick and scream
fight through rough waters
for future sons and daughters

it seems impossible,
one day it'll be plausible
so take the stance
don't cast a fleeting glance

with us, please fight
with every ounce of your might,
for our future on this land
with me, please stand
