Kill the Bullfighter - Hoodstory (Bounce) Lyrics

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...
