[Lyric] Colonial Me (Nick Krefting)

Here's a song that I stole from folks I don't know
I stole it before I was born
I've sung my whole life with a voice that's not mine
But I claimed it and thought it was fine

I take and I take
I don't know how to give anymore
I take and I take
That's no way to live anymore

Here's a house that I took on land that's not mine
I had no hand in its building
I park in the driveway, and give a bank money
And sleep better than I should

I spend my life on the backs of slaves
And Natives and prisoners and children
I closed my eyes and thought I was bettеr than that
I close my eyes and know I'm bеtter than that
