We are the World (Climate Advocacy) Lyrics

Verse 1

We'll have nothing left

We have all we love here

What's needed is to rescue mother earth

There are people dying

The annihilation of man

If we don't do all we know for climate change

Verse 2

We can't go on

Pretending day by day

That somehow, things will change by themselves

May our sky be carbon-less

May we help the vulnerable

But the truth is a change is all we need

Chorus

We are the world

We can be human

We are the ones to make a greener day

For posterity

There's a choice we making

We're saving our own lives

It's true we make a better day

Just you and me

Verse 3

So set up your heart

many empty promises

Ecosystems are degrading day by day

In the African parched lands

Just extreme weather events

Children dying of hunger

You just can't turn away

Chorus

Everyone arise

We are the children

We are the ones who can make the change

So let's start acting

There's a choice we making

We're saving our own lives

It's true we make a better day

Just you and me

Bridge

When we are down and out

There seems no hope at all

If you just believe there's no way we can fall

Let us realize

That a change can only come

When we stand as one
