Open Letter To A Landlord

Open Letter To A Landlord - Living Colour[00:00:00]

Now you can tear a building down[00:00:15]

But you can't erase a memory[00:00:19]

These houses may look all run down[00:00:29]

But they have a value you can't see[00:00:35]

This is my neighborhood[00:01:01]

This is where I come from[00:01:06]

I call this place my home[00:01:10]

You call this place a slum[00:01:14]

You wanna run the people out[00:01:18]

This is what you're all about[00:01:22]

Treat poor people just like trash[00:01:25]

Turn around and make big cash[00:01:29]

Now you can tear a building down[00:01:32]

But you can't erase a memory[00:01:35]

These houses may look all run down[00:01:40]

But they have a value you can't see[00:01:43]

Last month there was a fire[00:01:57]

I saw seven children die[00:02:01]

You sent flowers to their families[00:02:05]

But your sympathy's a lie[00:02:09]

Cause every building that you burn[00:02:13]

Is more blood money that you earn[00:02:17]

We are forced to relocate[00:02:21]

From the pain that you create[00:02:25]

Now you can tear a building down[00:02:27]

But you can't erase a memory[00:02:30]

These houses may look all run down[00:02:35]

But they have a value you can't see[00:02:38]

Now you can tear a building down[00:02:43]

But you can't erase a memory[00:02:46]

These houses may look all run down[00:02:51]

But they have a value you can't see[00:02:54]

We lived here for so many years[00:03:39]

Now this house is full of fear[00:03:43]

For a profit you will take control[00:03:47]

Where will all the older people go[00:03:51]

There used to be when kids could play[00:03:55]

Without the scourge of drug's decay[00:03:59]

Now our kids are living dead[00:04:03]

They crack and blow their lives away[00:04:06]

Now you can tear a building down[00:04:10]

But you can't erase a memory[00:04:12]

These houses may look all run down[00:04:17]

But they have a value you can't see[00:04:20]

Now you can tear a building down[00:04:25]

But you can't erase a memory[00:04:28]

These houses may look all run down[00:04:33]

But they have a value you can't see[00:04:36]

You've got to fight[00:04:41]

You've got to fight[00:04:43]

You've got to fight[00:04:44]

For your neighborhood[00:04:46]

You've got to fight[00:04:48]

For your neighbor[00:04:50]
