Welcome to the pride of Boyle Heights, the Aliso Village set Where Hollenbeck and ICE agents come to rape On that side forced removal of Issei elders and kids And placed in concentration camps your history hid And over there my homies sold crack to fiending privileged whites- Issei forced to line up at Rosevelt High You will not gentrify barrio Boyle Heights Testify - influx -of the outside To our side - so mariachi organized Developers plot Property values rise Even built a train to civilize Boyle Heights Tore down our homes to hide despair from Gold Line eyes Think youre safe? Cuz you own private space? Nisei were citizens too They lost all livelihood Better unite or die The barrio is gold in their eyes A legacy of rape J-town to Tule Lake Better unite or die The barrio is gold in their eyes Korimatsu put on blast Got props for the past Witness the culture of resistance The DBH collective You will not gentrify barrio Boyle Heights Brown developers aint got eyes for the strife But money in mind Without the brown in sight You will not gentrify barrio Boyle Heights Disposable work force is the new voice Behind the mask waging new war with full force You don't fight war with peace...
