There'll come a time
|
When you may want just a little more
|
Societys luxuries are not what you had in store.
|
They offer no security for your soul.
|
So Mother Eart is what you need
|
Maybe this is what you be looking for.
|
|
Oh Mother Earth
|
Got to respect her
|
She's all around me
|
Under my feet you know I got to remember,
|
Mother Earth
|
Got to defend her.
|
And to defend her I must respect myself
|
You know I got to remember
|
I must remember.
|
|
There'll come a time
|
When we can't take anymore
|
When the air that we breath
|
Has left us rotten to the core
|
And the water that we drink
|
You know its no good to drink any more
|
Do we have to let it go,
|
Do we have to let it go this far?
|
|
Beautiful moon shining over the ocean
|
Don't you know I'll do it all for you.
|
Give up my days and my tomorrows
|
If the words I singing are not true.
|
Cause in this world and the others
|
Not a thing that I wouldn't do
|
Mother Earth your in my soul.
|
It's my blood your running through.
|
|
Must respect myself to respect her,
|
Must respect myself to Defend her.
|
Must respect myself to respect her.
|
Must respect myself
|
