A Place We Call Home

This is our home. 
This is our land.
This is where our roots connect deep into the earth’s core. 
We sing and sway our lively branches,
We stand tall.
This is our home.

We fear our future.
We fear for our home.
A bulldozer breaks and bursts our hearts.
We tumble and crumble to the earth's crust,
We fall in defeat.
We fear our future.

Protect us.
Protect our roots.
We give you memories and happiness and all we want is love.
The breath that we give is life to you,
Love us.
Protect us.
