| Housing is a human right, | |
| I’m taking time to shine a light | |
| on it. | |
| A cozy place to sleep at night, | |
| I need one and I’m down to fight | |
| for it. | |
| A brother sleeps outside again, | |
| the concrete is his only friend | |
| in the night. | |
| A policeman comes to wake him up, | |
| it’s time to move his things again, | |
| not again... | |
| Can I ask you my friend, | |
| will homelessness ever end? | |
| It’s time to pay the rent again, | |
| a struggle I would like to end | |
| with this song. | |
| Do corporations own it all? | |
| Or is up to us to make the call? | |
| Tell me now | |
| if I’m wrong. | |
| When your neighbor moves out | |
| 'cause they cannot figure out | |
| what to do | |
| anymore. | |
| Do you have to be rich | |
| for the right to exist, | |
| and for some- | |
| one to care | |
| about you? | |
| "Housing is a human right. There can be no fairness or justice in a society in which some live in homelessness, or in the shadow of that risk, while others cannot even imagine it.” | |
| -Jordan Flaherty, Floodlines: Community and Resistance from Katrina to the Jena Six |
