CHORUS
I am the weapon
(I am the weapon)
—
You can join me in the action
(You can join me in the action)
—
We are the weapon
(We are the weapon)

Don’t confuse us with distraction
(Don’t confuse us with distraction)

VERSE
If the ocean is dirty, we can clean it with our actions
If you destroy the earth then we can’t do what we want
—
If we help this world then we can have fun fun fun
If we ignore this land, then we might we might be done done
—
Ocean is important, trash is not
If you kill a fox, you’ll never have a fox
—
If we don’t help the earth, we will not live a happy life
So let’s align our hearts and dance in the stars tonight

About the Book
We are Water Protectors
Written by Carole Lindstrom
Illustrated by Michaela Goade
Inspired by the many Indigenous-led movements across North America, We Are Water Protectors issues an urgent rallying cry to safeguard the Earth’s water from harm and corruption—a bold and lyrical picture book written by Carole Lindstrom and vibrantly illustrated by Michaela Goade.
Water is the first medicine.
It affects and connects us all . . .
When a black snake threatens to destroy the Earth
And poison her people’s water, one young water protector
Takes a stand to defend Earth’s most sacred resource.
