ctyndn - 1876 lyrics

[verse 1]
we used to see the stars at night
we would stare in to the sky and wish upon a satellite
but i can’t see the sunrise anymore
its covered by all these roof tops
with rents a i can’t afford
surviving in the shadows casted down from a class war
i’ve noticed that the stars won’t tell their stories anymore
nothing ever stays gold
thats what i’m told

[chorus]
oh i’m riding through the city where i got grown
neighborhoods full of houses that i’ll never own
i’m not wanted here no more
i’m not wanted here no more

[verse 2]
all paintings that usеd to line the streets
on stores ownеd by minorities
have all been painted over and the stores have all been closed
by people unaffected
who adopt causes just to perform
“land back” and “black lives matter” signs
hang on our stolen doors
i fear the day they come to take my parents home away
for somebody with mom and dad money
who’s moved to town and wants to stake a claim
pushing the ones i love out on the streets
where n0body has any empathy
n0body has any
[chorus]
oh i’m riding through the city where i got grown
neighborhoods full of houses that i’ll never own
i’m not wanted here no more
i’m not wanted here no more
