Views From The 516 Lyrics by Career Day

Where We’ve Always Been

0

Driving through
Garden City and Hempstead
Easy to see who
The state cares to invest in
Whose schools look just like mansions, while The Others look like rotting sheds
As the county cuts the programs for finding new jobs
As the cops round the block, all around the clock
[Chorus]
Have you seen enough yet?
Are you not disgusted?
Dividing lines, in black and white
Our whole lives
Born to endless class war
From the town bar to the schools board
We’ve gotta win with more than wishful thinking
Driving through Floral Park
“A Great Place to Live”
At least the sign says it is
Strange; they were forced to integrate their schools in the late ‘80s
Explains why their kids my age express the same thoughts lately
“A great place to live”
[Chorus]
Bridge:
All that “listening and learning”
Now put some work in
Are you standing by for action?
Or just bystanding
[Chorus]
