Draw the Line

Chorus: (Audience Participation)

We draw the line — for the justice we deserve
We draw the line — for the planet we must serve
The right to speak, to live, to just be free
We draw the line — for democracy

We see the black smoke rise up in the sky,
The seas are climbing and the fields run dry.
We won’t stand back while they pretend it’s fine—
For Earth and truth, we draw the line.

Chorus

The clock is ticking past the one-point-five,
The smoke is thick/ but we are still alive.
They say “be patient,” while the people fry—
We won’t back down, and we won’t lie.

Chorus

The floods are rising, fire’s in the trees,
The oceans choke while they deny with ease.
They’d sell the air we breathe to make a dime
But truth won’t bend, we draw the line.

Chorus

We draw the line — for the justice we deserve
We draw the line — for the planet we must serve
The right to speak, to live, to just be free
We draw the line — for democracy

The ballot box is guarded now by fear,
But people’s power is still loud and clear.
They try to choke the voices, twist the signs—
But truth still walks, we draw the line.

Chorus

We draw the line — for the justice we deserve
We draw the line — for the planet we must serve
The right to speak, to live, to just be free
We draw the line — for democracy

(Slower) We draw the line – for democracy
