Gentrification (Ry Cooder)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=In3A8IXBWlo

Great song by Ry Cooder and mates on a real problem in more and more places: Gentrification.

Enjoy!

Lyrics from Genius.com

[Verse 1]
Standing on corner, spending my time
Out of a job, not earning a dime
Lady steps up, says "I suppose
You're a stylish young man by the looks of your clothes"

[Verse 2]
She said "Trust me and take a little tip
This building's been sold to Johnny Depp"
Who? "Take the buyout, relocate
The Google-men are coming downtown, so don't be late"

[Verse 3]
I said "This is my apartment, just a hole in the wall
Got to sleep in the kitchen with your feets in the hall
No hot water, no windows and doors
You got to make it past all the real estate agents, junkies and hoes"

[Verse 4]
I live in the heart of the city, ain't no coffee shops around
I heard them Google-men drink so much coffee, I declare, I think they might drown
Gentrification is here, one thing I know
You can't stand pat, I declare you got to step it up and go

[Outro]
Gentrification is here, sho' is worryin' my mind
Can't understand why an uptown Google-man wants a downtown room like mine
Gentrification

William Ury: from "no" to "yes"


William Ury:  
"The secret of peace is us, each of us."
"Let´s stop fighting and start talking."
"Walking side by side in the same direction" 
"Engage a different one in a conversation"

Akua Naru: Love, how does it feel now?


Love, love mmm...I told y'allWe would be the band to play it.
My ghetto butterfly flew away from me.I wait patiently, by windows and doorsteps.Play, make believe, as my tears, poor chest
,won't succeed to breathe, if not to hear of you.
Surely there has never been a shade so blue.A stank attitude, so not mad at you.Not a magnitude to encompass the latitudeof my love for you.No space and time compatible.
What do I have to do? What do I have to do?Uh..my friends say I got it bad for you.I do. But there's nothing in this world I'd rather do,but you.

I want to make love to your existence,drenched in the colors of your energy,then masturbate to the memories.I wanna lose myself inside yourselfUntil you find me. Confine me,to the freedom of your prison.Exist in the same space, same time.Combine until your thoughts slow grind with mineCombine until your thoughts slow grind with mineCombine until your thoughts slow grind with mine
My, I wanna drink the sweat of your intellect,reflect, and watch your light passion walk my neck.Caress the sights of your presence with no question,undress to the nakedness of love, pure love.I want to make love to my soulmate... my soulmate...make love to my soulmate...my soulmate...make love to my soulmate, uh shit...I wonder, how does it feel to make love to your soulmate.Kind of like writing poetry till climax,till the point and place where space and time match.Can we cross the line, perhaps tell me would you like that.Now would you like that, tell me would you like that,would you like that, tell me would you like that,would you like that, tell me?
I'm gonna ask you again now, tell me..Would you like that, tell me would you like that,now would you like that, tell me would you like that,would you like that, tell me..
I wanna love you more than madly.Wrap these legs around your words,until your speech is straddled deep, gladly.Swim the currents of your vibrations,be separate in onewith the same meditation..Uh the same meditation..
Uh you know what..This, right here is poetry..
Enjoy.. Ualy, play that saxophone right now!
[Sax solo]
If love..If love had a soundthis would be that sound.And we,well we,We would be the band to play it.
