A residential area between the eastern highway and
An industry block, where the white and gray so
Called houses are covered in putty and spray paint
This place is the home for 50 families and a
Hundred kids, forced to live where no one belongs
In molding barracks where it's hard to breathe

Send me your hungry, your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses

Officially they're temporarily placed here, though
Many have stayed here for more than eight years

From housing construction to housing shortage, the
Policy is hide and forget
Out of sight, out of mind
They call it category living, I call it social dumping
Places, government subsidized ghettos
