The 2010 games, like in any other place, are a catalyst used to gentrify a city
It's now '08 and the homeless rate has tripled since winning the bid in '03
The poor are criminalized and hidden from the eyes of the tourists through "Project Civil City,"
"Con-air," "Safe streets" and Vancouver's police state Burn to the ground, the Olympic industry!
Here lie the ashes of their civil city, burned to the ground in the war of 2010
The security apparatus put in place for the games will remain
It's used as a model from which other cities can learn Let this police state burn
City workers are now our secret eyes and ears on the street reporting suspicious activity
Cameras on transit, with turnstiles that detect explosives traces on commuters hands
A centralized web of cameras linked to computers with facial recognition software
Cop cars with cameras that continuously scan license plates around it, up to 3000 an hour
"The 4 Host First Nations" were created the give the games the appearance of having indigenous support
Sacred native lands are being raped to make way for the so-called "greenest games"
Indigenous peoples and their cultures are being exploited for the Olympic industry
Ski-resorts grow as development explodes This colonial plan will be exposed
Here lie the ashes of their civil city, burned to the ground in the war of 2010
Send out the raven ahead of the dove We need to make war before we can make love
The IOC requires the host city to guarantee prevention of protest
12,000 cops, security, CSIS, JTF2, and the Army
This is what they need to counter our attacks Keep up the pressure
RBC, The Bay and Bell, attacking their sponsors with affinity groups
Warriors steal the flag in response to Harriet Nahanee's death
Native camps and blockades, defending their lands to stop Olympic "progress"
IOC members and bribed secretly by host cities to compete for the bid
Vacations, $millions$, shopping sprees, and prostitutes Nothing below royalty for the IOC
Join the Olympic resistance, from all across the lands, riot in 2010
