[Intro]
Are you prepared?
Are you prepared?
Are you?
Are you prepared?
Are you prepared?
Are you, come true
[Verse 1]
Are you prepared
Or feeling scared
To testify
Self declared
Unaware
Please justify
[Bridge]
Why?
Why not try
Why not try to kiss the sky
I, I, I
[Chorus]
Why not try to kiss the sky
Fill an ocean with your emotion
Devotion solution, soul-you-tion
Mother Earth
Mother Earth,
Owe my birth
To Mother Earth
[Verse 2]
Are you prepared
Or feeling scared
To testify
Self declared
Unaware
Please justify
Just a lie?
Possum die…
Can’t deny
[Bridge]
Why?
Why not try
Why not try to kiss the sky
I, I, I
[Chorus]
Why not try to kiss the sky
Fill an ocean with your emotion
Devotion solution, soul-you-tion
Mother Earth
Mother Earth,
Owe my birth
To Mother Earth
[Accelerando]
[Verse 3]
Are you prepared
Or feeling scared
To testify
Self declared
Unaware
Please justify
Just a lie?
Possum die…
Can’t deny
Are you finding it true
All you do
Comes back to you?
Are you
True
[Bridge]
Why?
Why not try
Why not try to kiss the sky
I, I, I
[Chorus]
Why not try to kiss the sky
Fill an ocean with your emotion
Devotion solution, soul-you-tion
Mother Earth
Mother Earth,
Owe my birth
To Mother Earth

All you do
Comes back to you?
Are you
True
