"Landlord" lyrics


FIFTEEN LYRICS

"Landlord"

Sometimes I feel the need to ask my landlord
Just exactly when did god die, and how'd you get in the will
and why is that you own seven homes and I own none
and for some reason that means you get to rob me on the first of every month

Upon further investigation I find that land acquisition
is just a result of genocide and war
And if we uphold the idea of landownership we are saying it's acceptable
to kill people just to take away their land, to take their land
kill em to take their land

Situations like these make me fall to my knees
I can not comprehend what you don't understand
Situations like these make me fall to my knees
I can not comprehend what you don't understand
Situations like these make me fall to my knees
simple matter of greed do you understand?
Situations like these make me fall to my knees
it's a simple matter of greed, when it's just a scam

It's a pretty simple equation, there are ninety nine people like you
for every cop, landlord and politician
And if we learned to just say no there'd be no more taxes, no more work
and we'd all own our own homes
we are all controlled... by fear
If you don't go to work everyday
If you don't pay your rent every month
If you don't pay your taxes every year
If you don't bow down to our fear
You will starve in the street
You will freeze in the street
You will die in the street
You will die... alone

It's a pretty simple equation
It's all about restitution
It's all about reparations
It's all about revolution

My life is mine
My time is mine
My work is mine and don't work for you anymore
My life is mine
My time is mine
Your house is my mind and I don't pay you rent anymore
My life is mine
My time is mine
My money is mine and I won't pay taxes to fund your fucking war,
to pay for your war

Situations like these make me fall to my knees
I can not comprehend what you don't understand
Situations like these make me fall to my knees
I can not comprehend what you don't understand
Situations like these make me fall to my knees
simple matter of greed do you understand?
Situations like these make me fall to my knees
it's a simple matter of greed, when it's just a scam

And if we really believe that it's ok to kill someone
just to take their shit
then I'm gonna go down to the pawnshop and buy myself a handgun
cause my landlord's on the top of the list

Situations like these make me fall to my knees
I can not comprehend what you don't understand
Situations like these make me fall to my knees
I can not comprehend what you don't understand
Situations like these make me fall to my knees
simple matter of greed do you understand?
Situations like these make me fall to my knees
it's a simple matter of greed, when it's just a scam

The Indians lost
and this is the cause
The Indians lost
and red is the cost
