[Instrumental intro]

[Verse 1]
I walked the world of price tags and pain
Suffering from illusions, a fictitious dream
Thinking how the world _should_ be
Instead of seeing what it really means
Whatever happens in the world is real
The rest is projection in our head
We built cages out of money
From the stories that we fed

[Pre-Chorus]
And someone asked, "You're smart, why aren't you rich?"
He smiled and said, "You're rich — why aren't you smart?"
Because smart knows the earth is not for sale
Smart knows we must make a brand new start

[Chorus]
Declare it now, declare it true
Earth and all its resources
As the common heritage of me and you
No owners, no borders, no buying the sky
Just one abundant planet
Where no child has to cry
Peaceful, moneyless, sustainable
Happy, whole and free
The future is a garden
For all humanity

[Verse 2]
They said there are bad people
But Fresco showed a different light
There are no bad people, only
People without enough insight
With insufficient information
To make the path that's right
Give them tools, give them access
Give them love, give them light

And the city rises circular
It grows like a living tree
Power from the wind and sunlight
Desalinated sea
No waste, just cycling circles
Everything designed to last
A sustainable future built
At last, at last, at last

[Chorus 2]
Declare it now, declare it true
Earth and all its resources
As the common heritage of me and you
Where science is our compass
And compassion is our creed
Producing true abundance
For every human need

[Bridge - The Call]
If you think we can't change the world
It just means you're not one of those who will
But I see you, all, I see us
The designers building still
With joyful ingenuity
And love that stretches wide
Extensional love beyond our kin
A rising, endless tide

[Verse 3 - The Future]
No more jobs for money's sake
Automation sets us free
To be the poets, artists, explorers
That we were meant to be
Resource based, not profit based
Decisions from what we know
Measuring well-being
By how much love can grow

[Final Chorus - Anthem]
So declare it, Earth and all its beauty
As the common heritage of all
Answer to that final question
Hear the future call
Abundant and peaceful
Moneyless and bright
Sustainable and happy
Bathing all in light

If you think we can't change the world...
Just watch us — we will.
