[Intro]
Gm Eb F Gm
[Verse 1]
Gm
What about the skies, now stained with smoke?
Eb
Oceans rising, no antidote
F
Children cry in Gaza streets
Gm
While the West just tweets, and the bombs repeat
Gm
What about the trees, felled for greed?
Eb
Plastic tides in coral reefs
F
AI’s learning how we feel
Gm
While the workers beg for a living meal
[Chorus]
Eb
Did you ever stop to notice
F
How the wildfires light the skies?
Gm
Did you ever hear the silence
Bb
Where the bees and birds once cried?
[Bridge]
Cm
We said “never again,”
D
Yet we scroll again
Gm
Watching from afar
D
While they beg behind barbed wire
[Final Chorus]
Eb
What about us? What about the Earth?
F
What about the promise we said we’re worth?
Gm
What about the clean air, the peaceful nights?
Bb
What about choosing what is right?
Eb
What about the love, what about the care?
F
What about acting like we share?
Gm
What about the ones still left behind?
Bb
What about our future — out of time?
Storms devour the island lands
While leaders shake each other's hands
[Final Chorus – powerful and pleading]
What about us? What about the Earth?
What about the promise we said we’re worth?
What about the clean air, the peaceful nights?
What about choosing what is right?
What about the love, what about the care?
What about acting like we share?
What about the ones still left behind?
What about our future — out of time?
