lyrics

It’s unjust. To them it seems all the same.
It’s not unintentional. Racial discrimination.
When the enforcers of laws, environmental rules and regulations,
keep minorities fucked living in polluted wastelands.
Our culture remains buried below your bridges
while you live your life secluded, surrounded by riches.
My backyards are smokestacks, factories in decay.
In your private city such things will never exist.
I’m a victim of environmental racism.
We are the forgotten, proverbial lower class.
Engulfed in gang violence, loss of hope, hatred, and crime.
You are the elite, who deserve and know best.
So you'll be protected by your private police
while we get murdered and raped.
Politicians they want you to believe
the words they speak not the ones that you read.
Politicians will rob you blind.
The fucking politicians, they want your mind.
In a state of ignorance to the gentrification,
to the rape of minorities, to the rape of this nation.
