Chorus
Get up, step up
This is the hour
—
We’re called to fight
-And know our power
—
We’ll make the snake pay
With good intentions we don’t play
—
So get out the way
We’re here to save the day
—
Verse
I had a dream –
That we were water guardian
Be gone – (snake) – Be gone
—
I had a dream
Of no corruption
Run now until it’s done
—
Be kind
Don’t kill
But stay still
—
It turns out the world is not as it seems
But we can live out our dreams

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.
