National Cred

My home on native land
I stole that from a T-shirt
Gotta give credit
Where credit is due 

Canada 'eh
Kanata
Iroquois for settlement or village
And here's where I slip in pillage
Pardon my digression
Subjugation segregation
And bad first impression

Gotta give credit where credit is due
I remember being proud of a beret in blue
