Rupert Common - Lost in Privilege Lyrics

When I was younger
I had no sense of respect
And the culture that raised me did not teach it to me either
I regret, to inform y'all
I was lost in privilege

We had the green fields and
We had computers
We had the A grades and
Electric scooters
That we rode into our graduation
From saint whatever-the-name-is

Funny how a saint to one' s a devil to another
I went to boarding school with children from the suburbs
We were sent their to give respite to our mothers
In my 8 years i never heard an Indigenous drummer, no
They say we're bilingual i hear a higher number
10,000 languages they're crying out with thunder
This Country Canada is based on lies and plunder
John A McDonald well he's just like Adolph Hitler

A A A Adolph Adolph
John A McDonald Donald
John A McDonald Adolph
Adolph John McDonald Hitler
John a McDonald Ronald

You get the picture
Our first prime minister
Was kind of sinister
He was the over fisher, and the treaty tricker he was the
"White Giver"
Enforcing all his rules on the Red River

And I'm spitting the facts
I'll make Jordan Peterson check his privilege fast
Our forefathers, are forsaken
We should take their fony ass faces off the money we've been making
Canadian bacon? No thanks I'm feeling
If I'm gonna eat some meat then it better be more free, man like
Morgan, Morgan Freeman
150 years ago they were not free, man
