Lyrics:

Verse I:

It's crazy how the ones who create the calamities
sick the cops on the those trying to save humanity
when all they want, is to take care of their families
they get beat and sent to jail man, it's insanity
from Texas, all the way to new brunswick
tar sands and fracking, gonna make us sick
Millions in profits don't help us one bit
the government don't care, who you think really runs shit

the oil companies and natural gas too
With Chapter 11, they're the ones that sue
NAFTA, What a DISASTER, we HAVE TO
organize now before they try to pass the
TPP, Trans Pacific Partership
A plan more evil then Stephen Harper is
To control 40% of the global economy
they need to give the people a full labotomy

Chorus:

Our tax money being used on the gas lands
I feel like I'm being screwed by the tax man
corporations treat our land like a trash can
they shake hands, make plans for a back stab

Our tax money being used on the gas lands
we're straight up being screwed by the tax man
corporations treat our land like a trash can
they shake hands, make plans for a back stab

Verse II:

They do all of this in the name of "Free Trade"
when there's nothing free about the way they behave
It's just Double speak, trying to make us be slaves
they're rapping the Earth for the things that we crave
It's time to wake up and raise our fists
guess what, it's us who really pays for this
tax money goes to fund the multi-nationals
while they cut social programs, this ain't rational

Instead of investing in small businesses
we fund giant companies what is this shit?
We must invest the Earth, live and die for the land
instead of being ruled by suply and demand
It's about time that we switch our priorities
those who control are the rich minority
we hold the power in the palm of our hands
as we help build ticking time bombs on our land

Chorus:

Our tax money being used on the gas lands
I feel like I'm being screwed by the tax man
corporations treat our land like a trash can
they shake hands, make plans for a back stab

Our tax money being used on the gas lands
we're straight up being screwed by the tax man
corporations treat our land like a trash can
they shake hands, make plans for a back stab

Verse III:

Pipelines are bursting left and right
As the oil execs collect checks we write
And they all get away like a theft in the night
it ain't right, let's unite to protect our life
Our towns and cities are in distress
to save em we need more then to just protest
the streets filled with police militants, it's tense
the government's the threat, let make a citizens arrest!

clean energy is here, we have the tech
Big ups to Tesla yo, mad respect
it's time to build, put our money where our mouth is
we gotta build solar panels, put em up on our houses
invest in clean air, water and land
if we really want to give our sons and daughters a hand
let's do it for the water, trees and the animals
put to justice all those who's accountable
