A roof keeps me dry Keeping my spirits high The walls keep me safe Allowing me to have my own space The floor supports me Keeping me high like a tree All of these things make my home Keeping me and my family safe So I’m not alone My family is here All together We can spread love Always and forever But there are some people Who don’t have a home They have to fend for themselves All alone That is why I’m here to write To help these people Take flight Home For Humanity will build a home So these people won’t be alone They will have a roof to keep them dry Which helps keep their spirits high They will have walls to keep them safe Allowing them to have their own space They will have a floor to support them Just like how the floor supports me Keeping them high just like a tree Everyone deserves a home To keep them safe and warm To help shelter them From storms in all forms
