cadence weapon - skyline lyrics

[intro]
happening again, eh?

[verse 1]
woke up to a bad dream
waved goodbye to our sp_ces
every one of our favourites
cityscape looking faceless
made the streets look stainless
the surgery wasn’t painless (no)
no past, just traces (noo)
nowhere to play, just playlists
walked through town, it was looking strange
all i saw was weed places (huh)
they wanna keep us sedated
they don’t want civic engagement (d_mn)
lrt stations in little jamaica
lead to mass displacement
condo ads with white faces
who’s gonna gain from the changes?

[chorus]
i don’t recognize the skyline
and i can’t see the sunshine
saw a hole in the skyline
read about it in a headline
i don’t recognize the skyline
no, i can’t see the sunshine
no, i can’t see the sunshine
no, i can’t see the sunshine
[verse 2]
the powers that be, they trick us (they do)
loopholes to evict us
slumlords in effect
raising the rent then they blame the victims
the city tears down encampments
my neighbours bought a place in hamilton
tents right next to the mansions
they acting like it isn’t happenin’
city planners never plan for us
mayor tory doesn’t ride the bus (no)
or ride a bike or ride for us (no)
so how can he understand what we want?
ford nation’s for the corporations
but he don’t care about the public (he don’t)
whenever we ask for what we need
they say there’s no room in the budget
