Unseen - Cultural Genocide lyrics

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

gentrified, genocide
