This is the north part of yonker 

Their home 

A whole world all to itself 

You could get to any borough 30 minutes from here 

It might as well be 3, 000 miles away 

Over there, that's alexander street precinct 

The sounds of the sirens fill the neighbornood 

It was around 1997 

L-o-x was the sound of the street 

(*short clip of a song by the lox*) 

Felt like there was a bad boy in every corner back then 

Was the time then 

Mike tyson was about to fight holyfield 

For the heavyweight title 

Tyson was that nigga, word up 

Pops used to sneak us into the gambling spot 

To watch the fight on pay-per-view 

That's gettys square 

That's where everything went down at 

I'll talk to y'all about that later 

Over there 

That's the hill 

That's where we got rated at 

Cops battling 

A little red house 

59, chestnut street, second floor 

That's the lookout store 

Ayo when shit was moving slow at the spot 

All you would here is...
