Lyrics

See me for who I am
When you walk upon me, try understand
I was here before you, will be here in the End
I am Mother Earth, and you are Man
See my Mountains unafraid, to push against the sky
Catch the snow and water, without which you would die
See my canyon walls so steep, the angels fear to go
Cut from the rock of ages, where my rivers flow
I was here before you, will be here in the End
I am Mother Earth, and you are Man
See my woodlands green and brown, cathedrals in the trees
Sacred living creatures, that make the air you breathe
See my flowered prairies, you put to the plow
Once the home of buffalo, you replaced with cows
I was here before you, will be here in the End
I am Mother Earth, and you are Man
See my marshlands gold and green, that lay down by the sea
Shelter you from hurricanes, if you let them be
See my oceans, green and blue, oh so wide and deep
Source of life, I give to you, their purity please keep
I was here before you, will be here in the End
I am Mother Earth, and you are Man
See the signs I give to you, the days are growing few
The grievous harm you do to me, I cannot undo
See me for who I am
When you take from me please use a gentle hand
I was here before you, will be here in the End
I am Mother Earth, You are my Children
Please
Can we be Friends
