I stare into the fire
And watch the flames go towards the sky
And I can't help but wonder
What this tree did to die
So I took it's ashes
And mixed them with dirt and dropped a seed
And it made me think
I gotta thank my mom and dad for making me
You need to plant for the future
Plant for the children
Plant for you and me
You got to plant for tomorrow
Plant for the harvest
You got to plant your seed
We all come from our fathers
And live off the harvest
From people planting trees
And we depend on each other
To nurture our mother earth
So won't you please
Stand with your brother
Stick up for your mother
Gotta turn the wrongs to rights
Too many humans on the land
That just don't understand
What it's gonna be like in 2025
We need to plant now
To help our planet grow
And yes it's very important that everybody knows
The situation that we're headed for
Is one that we are creating
And the future is our goal
You need to plant for the future
Plant for the children
Plant for you and me
You got to plant for tomorrow
Plant for the harvest
You got to plant your seed
I'm a southern soldier
I got peace on my mind
We got the next generation
Just waiting here in line
See I'm a freedom fighter
I keep fighting all the time
No one promised tomorrow
So I gots to go for mine
Everybody thinks about tomorrow
Everybody needs some room to breathe
We don't got no time left to borrow
If you agree
Let's try to plant a seed
Pursue my dreams in the fast lane
One day get away
Plant seeds in the meanwhile
Watch it grow today
Make a change to a nation
That needs a safer place
And when ya make a difference
With the people
There's no one else to blame
We all need to plant seeds and make a change
We all need to plant seeds and make a change
To save this place
You need to plant for the future
Plant for the children
Plant for you and me
You got to plant for tomorrow
Plant for the harvest
You got to plant your seed
You need to plant for the future
Plant for the children
Plant for you and me
You got to plant for tomorrow
Plant for the harvest
You got to plant your seed
