Pattie Gonia, Yo-Yo Ma and Quinn Christopherson came together to write a song about not giving up on this planet and not giving up on each other.

Climate justice and environmental justice are inextricably linked.

How we treat this planet is how we treat each other.

Produced by Grammy award-winning Producer Tyler Chester (Madison Cunningham, Blake Mills, Andrew Bird) and with performances by players violinist Paul Cartwright (Kendrick Lamar, Bright Eyes, Olivia Rodrigo) and drummer James McAllister (Taylor Swift, Ed Sheerhan, Sufjan Stevens) – the new single was created as a climate movement anthem.

LYRICS

We’ll I’m not
I’m not gonna say goodbye
I won’t see you on the other side
Even when I feel tired
I won’t stop

You & I
Made up of the same things
Nature running in our veins
Even when I feel tired
I won’t stop trying

I’ve seen the sun shine before all this gray
Always find light still the breaking of day

I won't give up for a minute
Never giving up on you
Never giving up on you

Well we’re caught
Caught up in the fire of time
How do we stay strong, stay kind?
We don’t have to say goodbye
Don’t say goodbye

I saw you burning
Up in the night
I’ll always keep searching
Searching for light

I won't give up for a minute
Never giving up on you
Never giving up on you

I won’t give up for a minute
Never giving up on you
Never giving up on you

I won’t give up for a minute
Never giving up on you
Never giving up on you
