Gasp for breath in this modern world
Victim of a market trend
There was once a community here
Now it's been condemned
To make way for monuments to their wealth
The towers reach the sky
Nothing was done to save it
You know it didn't all have to die
Dragged down run out
Cultural destruction on a massive scale
A greed that knows no bounds
Overpass underclass
No justice to be found
Humanity pushed out to the fringe
Surrounded by the iron gates
Left on display to warn us all
What could become are fate
