[Lyric] Tent City (Mr Kyle)

[Verse]

Now I’m not a man
Who needs too much
I pay for my living
Rent, groceries, and such

I try to break even
It ain’t easy livin’
I try to keep in mind
Just how much I’m givin’

[Pre Hook]
You know it’s getting pretty hard
But I can’t quit, I’ve come this far
Until they find a way to make housing free
It’ll be Tent City for me

[Hook]
It’ll be Tent City for me
It’ll be Tent City for me
When they kick me out
And change the lock to my key
It’ll be Tent City for me
[Verse]
To material things
There ain’t much commitment
Though I kind of like all this
Recording equipment

And these instruments hеre
Would be hard to let go of
And no onе wants this furniture
That I know of

But what would I do if it all caught fire
And I was free to live out any desire?
Nothing left to lose but the water and trees
It’ll be Tent City for me

[Hook]
It’ll be Tent City for me
It’ll be Tent City for me
When they kick me out
And change the lock to my key
It’ll be Tent City for me

[Breakdown]

Right here in Toronto. The Shifty Six
Where do we got tent cities here…
We got that Bathurst/ overpass closer to the lake
Right by fort york
We got the Legion on University
We got the Trinity Bellwoods
We got the Gardner Express

[Verse]

The hydro's through the roof
The place got no heat
They avoided the truth
Then tried to put me on the street

I got a new place now
But despite the conviction
Others don't get so lucky
With their renovictions

But now my neighbors gettin' pissed
‘Cause I still gotta practice stuff like this
Until they find a way to make housing free
It’ll be Tent City for me

[Hook]
It’ll be Tent City for me
It’ll be Tent City for me
When they kick me out
And change the lock to my key
It’ll be Tent City for me
