Another vacant building is a tax shelter and
nothing more

Cemented doors and windows keeping out the poor

What purpose does it serve to keep these
buildings emply

Destroying our community to protect abandoned
property

Functioning as financial loopholes instead of the
housing they could make

Because those owning empty buildings claim a
generous government tax break

So is housing just a luxury to b enjoyed by the
upper class

Another right you don't deserve if you haven't
got the cash

The trouble with ruling class financial tactics

Is that it's the people who need shelter not
their taxes

Destruciton described as progress evicting people
from their shelter

Renovating and rebuilding under the guise of
making cities better

But who does this progress better by putting
people in the street

Has it benefitted the community when construction
is complete

Housing is not a privledge, not a luxury but a
right

communities don't function any better with their
problems out of sight

Our communities consise of more than concrete,
brick and steel

It's made up of people including the homeless
they conceal

The trouble with ruling class financial tactics

Is that it's the people who need the shelter not
their taxes

Every inch of established land got that way by
means of force

And by paying rent were forced to contribute to
that source

With our communities our people suffer under this
establishment

It's not about housing these are human rights
they make us rent

Only the landlords profit as our lives are sold
and bought

And those who fight this process get evicted from
their squat

So while our leaders carry out these unjust squat
evictions

They prove that freedom can't exist under
capitalist conditions

The trouble with ruling class financial tactics

Is that it's the people who need shelter not
their taxes
