lyrics

I hear them taking my tusks away
My baby watching as they leave
Once a giant of these rich green plains
I'm hunted for my ivory

Don't cry be strong
You must go on
Don't cry be strong
We will carry on

When I hear a gun shot
I say a prayer
That we make it to a safer place
Mankind is not just destroying us
They're affecting all the human race

Don't cry be strong
You must go on
Don't cry be strong
We will carry on

I hear your cry I'm sorry baby
I won't be there for you
My horn and armor are not enough
To stop what a bullet can do

Don't cry be strong
You must go on
Don't cry be strong
We will carry on

Run my child
Please don't fall
We've got to work together
To protect us all
Our ecosystems are in danger
We've still got time to make the change

Don't cry be strong
You must go on
Don't cry be strong
We will carry on
