Lyrics:
Now you can tear a building down but you can't erase a memory These houses may look all run down but they have a value you can't see This is my neighborhood This is where I come from I call this place my home You call this place a slum You wanna run the people out This is what you're all about Treat poor people just like trash Turn around and make big cash Now you can tear a building down but you can't erase a memory These houses may look all run down but they have a value you can't see Last month there was a fire I saw seven children die You sent flowers to their families but your sympathy's a lie 'Cause every building that you burn is more blood money that you earn We are forced to relocate from the pain that you create Now you can tear a building down but you can't erase a memory These houses may look all run down but they have a value you can't see Now you can tear a building down but you can't erase a memory These houses may look all run down but they have a value you can't see We lived here for so many years Now this house is full of fear For a profit you will take control Where will all the older people go? (Go, go, go, go, go) There used to be when kids could play without the scourge of drug's decay Now our kids are living dead They crack and blow their lives away Now you can tear a building down but you can't erase a memory These houses may look all run down but they have a value you can't see Now you can tear a building down but you can't erase a memory (Memory) These houses may look all run down but they have a value you can't see (You've got to fight, you've got to fight) Now you can tear a building down (You've got to fight for your neighbourhood) But you can't erase a memory (You, you got to fight) These houses may look all run down (For you neighbourhood) But they have a value you can't see (You've got to, you've got to fight) Now you can tear a building down (You've got to fight for your neighbourhood) But you can't erase a memory (You've got to fight, you've got to fight) These houses may look all run down (For your neighbourhood)
