Chains

  1. Shackled and fettered in chains
  2. Sacrificed body and brains
  3. Hooked up straight into my vein
  4. Labour gets sucked down the drain
  5. Only for capital gain
  6. Ignoring my illness and pain
  7. Begging and pleading in vain
  8. Silenced each time I complain
  9. Speak up considered profane
  10. Hours each day on the train
  11. Ever extinguishing flame
  12. My number is now my new name
  13. Whispers in secret start swayin’
  14. Conspirators also are sayin’
  15. All of us no longer playin’
  16. Time for the head to start payin’
  17. Together our voices outweighin’
  18. As long as we’re standin’ and stayin’
  19. Our message more strongly conveyin’
  20. Power and strength we’re displayin’
  21. This isn’t pretend we’re portrayin’
  22. No longer on us are they preyin’
  23. Instead, they are cowerin’, prayin’
  24. The shackles and fetters decayin’

This Is Canada

  1. This is Canada.
  2. Soil be ripping up
  3. Water is dripping yep
  4. Forests we flipping up
  5. This is Canada.
  6. First ones we devastate
  7. Brown ones incarcerate
  8. White ones we insulate
  9. This is Canada.
  10. Rainbows are shining through
  11. But ignore white, pink, blue
  12. Each one they’re lying to
  13. This is Canada.
  14. Sorry a thick facade
  15. Hiding the sickness caused
  16. Poor to do business on
  17. This is Canada.
