Luyện nghe bài hát Gentrify

Gentrification is something we can, we can do something it
We can use policy, but it really comes to what we value,
Who we value, and how we want to act it

Ándale,
Mírale!

And you see them billboards yelling "cash for homes"

They finna double rent in the construction zone

They slick but be slicker, here we welcome the
Microbrew, shop, Trader Joes, Whole Foods
Gentrify, baby,

Man, them gastropubs and clean streets ain't enough
They yours
y'all crime rate, y'all got prime real estate
Continuing and they coming for your porch and
they flag like "that's my land, I licked it"
Brother, just business, your economy could use a boost
You know the truth, unemployment through the roof
And the mayor say the crime is dropped in L.A
And robbery and homicide are in a real way
And gang life and poverty are gone say
Why you ain't celebrating? Why you a kind of way?
Boy you not fit in in the hood you was made in
The corner rolling twenty stole your Jordans
Hopeless boys used to hold the town for hostage
It's complex, both and victims, I guess
Better learn to invest 'fore come and get yours
We locals, we loyal, we hopeful, we

Look, look they tryna ya
Exterminate the hood, boy their plan's apparent,
What happened when we hip-hop to the vultures?
An esoteric estuary of culture
Not a convoluted of thoughts, it's torture
A quintessential hipster, lane's a fixture
I ain't sayin' you welcome, please be our guest
Just know the city limits in our chest
Hoping you for the best, I believe in us
Locally I invest, I ain't us
I protect, these are our seeds with us
Told you we know best if you agree with us

Yeah, commute increased an hour
But got the down payment thanks to them vouchers
Slave to the mortgage rate, better not it late
not miss a payment (ayy!) better not cross with Jake
Stranger in the zip code, you doing here, boy?
You lowering our house value, it's clear, boy
You ain't here, boy, you ain't helping here, boy
You got the wealth to help yourself, so why you here, boy?
But kids are in a good school and tell 'em here, boy
College is for if you follow the rules
You, you know they stare at you, you know they of you
I know is all new, but they better get used to you
You home!
