Chiefrok - No Reservations lyrics

[Intro] Our goal is to deny your property claims... We didn't realize you were a sovereign community and nation out there... Where's your co*ks**ers' flag? f**ing Indians! [Chorus: Budda Blaze] We don't need no reservations We don't need no thought control Dark sarcasms in the council Indian Affairs leave us alone! [Verse 1: Chiefrok] Imagine the day your mother dies You bury her out back where your grandmother lies You inherit a house and couldn't ask for more One day a drifter stumbles to your door You let him in for medicine, he rests in your bed You wake up with a gun, pressed to your head He makes you sign a paper, you call the police He shows them the paper, says it's all in the lease "Look, I gave him beads, it's fair and square." "That's the value of the house with the wear and tear." He lets you keep the shed, builds a fence around Does this with your neighbours, gets the rents in town Sells all your stuff, keeps you quiet in the shed Gives you barely enough to keep your family fed Cuts the food source when you misbehave Builds a golf course on your family's grave You're living in prison and you can't make bail You can hop the fence and still end up in jail The house is your homeland, the lease is the treaty The shed is the rez and we all know who's greedy [Chorus: Budda Blaze] We don't need no reservations We don't need no thought control Dark sarcasms in the council Indian Affairs leave us alone! [Verse 2: Kode Red] This song is for the women & men that died Because of genocide And those that then defied The BIA For the freedom that's been denied How we were identified With numbers and sent aside You see why they Put us on a reserve - it wasn't meant to preserve A d**h camp and they act like it's something we deserve It's a fact you can observe so reserve the right Not to serve the White if you have the nerve to fight And don't be a sacrifice to the god they appease With SUVs and plasma TVs While we can't afford to live free from disease TB, diabetes, asthma, VDs And crime's on the rise like the stats for AIDS It ain't Moccasin Flats but bats and blades Are what kids carry - they don't give a f** for grades And it can get scary, plus the drug trade's Out of control - young minds are broken It ain't just smoking it's lines of coke and My Indian people know I'm not joking So you can soak in the words that are spoken From Okanagan to hogans in the south We all got pimped by the White man's mouth And keeping us down is what his government does We gotta bring it back to the way it was cause [Chorus: Budda Blaze] We don't need no reservations We don't need no thought control Dark sarcasms in the council Indian Affairs leave us alone!
