Uh, Hoid up, Take y'all back for a second
Y'all wanna know how we got here?
Let me paint this picture for you one time
1354 63rd and 14th
Apartment 1C, In the building that taught me
Ways of rubble jungle that building was our tree
Where the roots in the street were deep, but that truth don't ever leak
Like the Johnny pump on the block, I curb it, water it down
Afraid of saying too much, just Incase they poke around
And find holes in the open cases, don't fake what I talk about
So I take you back to the building, the place where my guard is down
Was raised in the apartments, with grandma googs for the most
Aunt sue across the hall, Uncle Dan and Bubs below
Aunt Paula and Uncle Ang, lived up a couple of floors
I learned no matter what, keep the family close
Man growing up me and my bro being unstable
At home
Lived on the island by address, till the stress lead us all
Back from where we left, the rusted steps in yard
Pretty rough start, biggest blessing I got, Yeah
Back, Back, Back, Back in the Building
Yeah we Back, Back, Back in the Building
Let me take you back, let me tell you how I'm feeling
Shhh Gotta keep it quiet for the children
We Back, said we Back, Back, Back in the Building
Ah Shit we Back, Back, Back in the Building
Let me take you back, let me tell you how I'm feeling
Shhh Gotta keep it quiet for the children
I was young, I learned all of my firsts here
Crossing streets, riding bikes, goin to church
Yeah
Grandma super big on faith she never missed a day
Prayed for everyone, ensure they'd make it home okay
I guess that was her way of handling the street life
Back then we were kids, but as I grew, started to realize
The real side, on my own connecting two and two
Before I sit down one on one, with what was what and who was who
Chillin in aunt sues playing Spyro PS 1
You see, I been pickin up jewels since I was young
Was the first of the grandkids, was the last one to live it
Cause right around that time my uncle caught a bid and
Ended up in the can with like a 10 to life
Once that happened we up rooted and the building died
Then He sold it and we moved to the island, started fresh
And that was the end, never got those times back again
Back, Back, Back, Back in the Building
Yeah we Back, Back, Back in the Building
Let me take you back, let me tell you how I'm feeling
Shhh Gotta keep it quiet for the children
We Back, said we Back, Back, Back in the Building
Ah Shit we Back, Back, Back in the Building
Let me take you back, let me tell you how I'm feeling
Shhh Gotta keep it quiet for the children
