Rap lyrics by Seth Weinfield
We will fight for our oceans’ rights
We will fight for our oceans’ rights
Like a wave on the ocean we’ll cause a commotion
and we’ll fight for our oceans’ rights
Everybody say “woh oh oh oh oh, ay! oh oh oh, wooh! oh oh oh yeah”
Everybody now “woh oh oh oh oh” shout it to the roof tops! “oh oh oh” come on come on
”oh oh oh” Yeah!
Rise up like a wave on a sea
We’ll rise up for an ocean that’s free
We’ll rise up. Tell our leaders that they’ve got to
rise up rise up.
I imagine oceans clean and blue like in my memory,
Squishing my toes in the sand as a child maybe two or three
Will we let this happen let our oceans die without a plea?
Will we let this be our reality?
See there is so much plastic in our sea.
But recently I had an epiphany
‘cuz we just saw a movie ‘bout a plastic sea
Hey yo the ocean needs some heroes
Hey, [pause] that could be you or me
Check it out!
This is both our moment [pause] and our movement
We’re the generation to make [pause] some improvement
We are also going to Palau. There is no time to wait. [pause] We must act now! NOW!
I’m past waitin’ for changes. We will be bringing positive changes to our nation.
The world will learn to have the plastic ration
We will be the change we want to see in the world
Following in the footsteps of Dr. Sylvia Earle!
And we will fight for our oceans’ rights
We will fight for our oceans’ rights
Like a wave on the ocean we’ll cause a commotion
and we’ll fight for our oceans’ rights
Everybody say “woh oh oh oh oh, ay! oh oh oh, wooh! oh oh oh yeah”
Everybody now “woh oh oh oh oh” shout it to the roof tops! “oh oh oh” come on come on
”oh oh oh” Yeah!
Rise up like a wave on a sea
We’ll rise up for an ocean that’s free
We’ll rise up. Tell our leaders that they’ve got to
Rise up! Rise up!
