We Need You

When I was born
You were there
When I die
You will still be there

I will keep you safe
I will do what I can
I will fight for you
I will win for you

I love you 
And everything about you
You are amazing and full of everything
I will always protect you

But it's not just me around
They want to tear you up
They want to bury you
They are already in the progress

They want to empty you
They want to raid you
They want to make money from you
But without you no one can live

We need you
But few pay attention
We will fight for you
But few are willing to

You are worth more than a mine
You are worth more than a desert
You are worth more than a dry ocean
You are worth more than humans trying to destroy

For you are our only hope 
You are our only place to live
You are our home
You are what we call earth
