Down on the city's street
I can hear the distant beat
Of the soundsystem
Rocking the bass and drum
Cramped from the tower blocks
Down to the squats and shops
Buy Ackee, caliloo
Bhaji, Dahl and samosa too
Rich In culture and community
Next door neighbours like family
And I loved it that way
Until the money men came to play

Gentrification (Invasion, invasion)
Gentrification (Invasion invasion)

You talk with scorn uptown
About how things are going down
You talk about our streets in fear
Dangerous 'cause your not welcome here
You come to take life blood
From the place you call the hood
Your Sending the law
Looking for papers, drugs and more
