I am fighting for my future

Losing my future is not like losing an election

Or a few points on the stock market

I am here to speak for all generations to come

I am here to speak — speak on behalf of the starving children

Around the world whose cries go unheard

I am here to speak for the countless animals dying across this planet

Because they have nowhere left to go

I am afraid to go out in the sun now

Because of the holes in our ozone

I am afraid to breathe the air

Because I don't know what chemicals are in it

I'm only a child, yet I know

We are all part of a family

Five billion strong

In fact, 30 million species strong

And borders and governments will never change that!

I'm only a child, yet I know

We are all in this together

And should act as one single world

Towards one single goal!
