This next one is by Elizabeth Bonker,
who is a non-speaking autistic writer, and also
a huge advocate.
She recently graduated from college,
and gave her commencement address for her school,
and it went super viral.
And she's got some really amazing, amazing stuff
going on.
She put out a full-length record of her own tunes,
and has a book of her own out and all kinds of cool advocacy
work as well.
So worth checking out.
Elizabeth Bonker.
This is called Because the World Needs You.
[BECAUSE THE WORLD NEEDS YOU, ELIZABETH BONKER]
(SINGING) Because the world needs you, her tears fall down,
fall down on us.
The grass holds her sweet dew.
I'm here to say the world needs you.
Because the world needs you, her voice cries out,
cries out to us.
As the storm winds blew, I'm here
to say the world needs you.
[MELLOW MUSIC]
(SINGING) Because the world needs you, she holds you,
holds you in her arms.
Like loving mothers do, yes, you know the world needs you.
Yes, you know the world needs you.
