One constant is change
Take these words rearrange
All this change bringing pain
But it's changing just the same
Outside I see a battle for the heart of the city
Every part of the city
North Beach Mission Street Mission Cliffs Mission E8ats
On a mission in The Mission painting pictures never missing no details
Like a mural in the mission
got a funny premonition
In a few years the Mission gonna be boring
Like the missionary position
Overused pretty boys no views
Sitting solo in Dolo sipping from a solo cup
You know what's up?
How many of us been here more than 2 years?
How many of us been here more than 5?
Locals mortified saying yeah there's more to life than
Money money money, but money makes the world turn
Talking to a local hey man you feel burned?
City in a chokehold
New kids new money earned
Mission street make a left turn
He left me with a lesson learned
One constant is change
Take these words rearrange
All this change bringing pain
But it's changing just the same
He said look. This a gold rush town
Tech money is a gold rush now
He said look. Look around
You might find money but the lost won't be found
He said look. This a gold rush town
Tech money is a gold rush now
He said look. Look around
You might find money but the lost won't be found
Other locals saying this exactly what they warned about
Feeling like a pair of blue jeans feeling worn out
You calling it a battle they say the heart's been torn out
Now the Google buses here they can't afford a house
So they up on Google Maps trying to figure out
Best place to protest the google bus routes
Like covering a wound once you're already bleeding out
Damn it feels different when you see the stats you read about
Read about how the cities changing each day
Locals can't even afford a house in the East Bay
Shit, I can't afford a house in the East Bay
Either way, I'm here to stay
I smelled him when I walked by
I usually don't stop but I
Caught his eye tanned skin tired lines
I said how bout change for a story
He said how about a story about change?
One constant is change
Take these words rearrange
All this change bringing pain
But it's changing just the same
He said look. This a gold rush town
Tech money is a gold rush now
He said look. Look around
You might find money but the lost won't be found
He said look. This a gold rush town
Tech money is a gold rush now
He said look. Look around
You might find money but the lost won't be found
We know the housing costs are killing people
And it's choking folks and we gotta do more to get housing built
