What had been for 11,000 years Ancient ice and snow Is melting like 11,000 tears Down the face of Kilimanjaro Where time itself is frozen Suspended in the air Now the water flows On Kilimanjaro Damaging the essence Of our atmosphere Threatens our existence Kilimanjaro
Where the ocean Meets the rivers and the bays Watch their waters rise Reclaiming what were drylands yesterday Right before our eyes From Tuvalu to Tonga To the shores of New Orleans Venice to Jamaica Kilimanjaro From the South Pacific Ocean To the Gulf of Mexico Flooding from the tears of Kilimanjaro
What will be in 11,000 years? Will we be at all? Will humans have realized our fears Or will we heed this call? We have burned our image On the open sky Squandering our privilege Kilimanjaro Glacial ice is falling Corporations lie Covering and stalling Kilimanjaro But we have seen you crying We can finally hear What we've been denying Kilimanjaro We can stop the yearning We can stop the tears We are finally learning
