It's our turn to lead be the change and redeem
We won't sit in silence won't let it be
The storms are getting stronger rising up the sea
It's time for a stand reclaim the command
Put the future of the world back into our hands
"Carbon Blues (Turn It Green)"
I've been hearing whispers in the corridors of power
Lies tangled in the smoke hour by hour
They keep selling promises keep selling dreams
While the earth is suffocating tearing at the seams
But I've got a vision and it's clear as the day
Where the sky's no longer gray
It's time to change our ways let's pave a brand new way
Before the world fades to black and gray
Turn it green baby turn it green
No more living in this carbon scene
We've got the power we've got the means
To light up the world with a brand new sheen
There's a revolution waiting in the wind and sun
A brighter tomorrow where the battles are won
No more oil spills no more blackened tides
We'll leave behind the shadows where the darkness hides
They'll tell you it's impossible a pipe dream at best
But we know better we won't settle for less
With the passion of believers and the courage of the bold
We'll turn this story into gold
Turn it green baby turn it green
No more living in this carbon scene
We've got the power we've got the means
To light up the world with a brand new sheen
Listen to the hum of the solar arrays
The whisper of the wind on a clear blue day
The future's calling out it's clear as can be
A cleaner brighter world for you and me
Turn it green baby turn it green
No more living in this carbon scene
We've got the power we've got the means
To light up the world with a brand new sheen
So let's rewrite the story with every song we sing
A melody of hope let the freedom ring
From the ashes of the past a new dawn will break
For the sake of tomorrow for all our sakes
The time is now our mission loud and clear
Each action counts let's overcome the fear
Harness the light the air the ocean's might
Together in this cause we'll bring the dawn's first light
In this age of green let's break the chain
Clean energy flows it's our new refrain
We'll stand hand in hand erase the coal the grime
It's our crescendo in this pivotal time
With the strength of the rivers the heat of the core
And the spin of the turbines we're opening the door
To a legacy of hope not the dark we deplore
Let's make it pristine baby make it pristine
Clean currents flowing in this new world scene
With hearts ignited we're the change unseen
The power in our hands clean as a mountain stream
We're not just dreaming we're the living dream
So let's rise with the dawn shake off the night
Our voices together a choir of light
We'll turn the old tales to myths of yore
