Take Your City Back Lyrics


Rope off another section of the city for the upper class then make another slum -
a place to throw your human trash.
Separate the blacks and whites, the rich from the poor.
Create the crime epidemic then sell people locks for their doors.
So no more stabbing each other in the back,
stand together and take your city back, take to the streets.
We have the numbers, unity is all we lack,
work together and take the city back
that they infiltrated, segregated and took all that we had!
Turned communities into battle zones and then built skyscrapers like giant tombstones.
Turned communities into battle zones and then built skyscrapers like giant tombstones
Well, I think we've had enough of that, so stand together and take it all back.
Take to the streets and take your city back!
We have got to learn to recognize the real enemy
because when the poor fight one another over color what is achieved?
When we divide they conquer and up goes another condo-plex,
and unless we stop them now there won't be nothing left (but poverty and homelessness).
So no more stabbing each other in the back, stand together and take your city back,

take to the streets. We have the numbers,
unity is all we lack, work together and take the city back
that they infiltrated, gentrified. But this time we fight back!

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
