you family's lived here for generations but you can't afford it no more we're making room for the corporations got no room for the poor rent is up, so you are out, we fall deaf to all your cries this use to be your neighborhood now you've been gentrified
what's really at the stake ain't real estate you're talking about people's lives rip the heart from a community their culture surely dies
they call it progress but who moves ahead? the people who control the wealth 'cause of their actions people end up dead they only care about themselves playing god, who goes? who stays? who the fuck are you to decide? they call it progress but it is a cultural genocide
