There’s a war on Nature

and we can all choose what to do

So if you feel I feel, the Love of the Earth

then you could be an Earth Warrior, too!

‘Cause I’m a warrior…how about you?

Nature soldier

Fighting for the earth.

This is my home it’s where I belong

From the clouds in the sky to the roots and stones

See the sun in the sky, makes me feel so high

I see the full moon shine, makes me feel so fine

Her river my blood her rock my bone

Her earth my muscle her heart my soul

Her children my children, their freedom my goal

I’ll fe fighting for them all

I’m a warrior, Earth Warrior

Nature soldier

Fighting for the earth…

People breed disassociation

Industrialization of elimination

A million mutant monkeys making mutilation.

The earth and her children know they cannot hide

From pollution, confusion and genocide

But I will protect them, yes I got the right

‘Cause I am a soldier, I fight the good fight

We got to keep on fighting!

For all the whales and fishes in the sea

We got to keep on fighting!

For all the little birds and all our trees

Because Mother Nature, she needs our help, you know she needs our help

Her children my children, their freedom my goal

I’ll be fighting for them all.

I’m a warrior, Earth Warrior,

nature soldier.
