lirik lagu aus-rotten - tax shelter (live)
[verse 1]
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 empty?
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 be enjoyed by the upper class?
another right you don’t deserve if you havеn’t got the cash
[chorus]
the trouble with ruling class financial tactics
is that it’s thе people who need shelter, not their taxes
[verse 2]
destruction is 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 on the street?
has it benefitted the community when construction is complete?
housing is not a privilege, not a luxury, but a right
communities don’t function any better with their problems out of sight
our communities consist of more than concrete, brick and steel
it’s made up of people, including the homeless they conceal
[chorus]
the trouble with ruling class financial tactics
is that it’s the people who need the shelter, not their taxes
[post~chorus]
free the squats
[verse 3]
every inch of established land got that way by means of force
and by paying rent, they were forced to contribute to that source
in our communities, 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
[chorus]
the trouble with ruling class financial tactics
is that it’s the people who need shelter, not their taxes
