Groundswell

This is a groundswell
We're fighting to dispel the lies
We're fighting to fortify
We're fighting to save our lives
This is a groundswell
We rebel together to expel denial
Quell the catastrophe of our lives
Before we further Earth's demise

There is a foul smell
Oozing out of the well
Earth's lungs are coated in black
There's no turning us back
A hurricane just unloaded
Big oil tanks just exploded
A glacier just melted
Sea levels have swollen
Engulfing us in this groundswell

We are a cowbell
Banging out the boasts of deniers
With chants
"Our house is on fire!"
We are a groundswell
Led by the youth
Informed by the science
Defining the design of our lives
Striking for justice, and human rights
This is a groundswell to open our eyes
This is a groundswell to open our eyes

We are a warning bell
Earth's survival depends on us
Nobody was listening
Now the world is waking up
We are a groundswell
