==Background==
Written and produced by OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder and T Bone Burnett, this call to action on climate change was written for the film, [[An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power]].

"Ten years later we are still talking about climate change," Ryan Tedder said. "Former Vice President Al Gore has again made a film that inspires one to get involved and do something for our planet. It was an honor to create a song with the legendary T Bone Burnett that speaks to the theme of this movie that the 'truth' leads to 'power' when it comes to standing up and helping to create change."

The song was written from the perspective of mother Earth, talking to her inhabitants.

"I wanted to take a break from writing songs about myself," said Tedder. "So I took the point-of-view of mother earth turning the tables on those who’d betray her."
