Da Young OG - Crack House Lyrics

When I was a boy had to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crack house
When you're growing up poor got to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crackhouse
I was running outside when the streetlights on ain't no coming outside ayye
Bunch of junkies outside and the dope boys getting to the money outside ayye
I never knew how crazy it would get
I was walking to the candy lady just to get a flip
Hit the corner store them boys hanging out here
Og's said I better not see you slanging out here
Pop Warner little legend I could slang the rock
After school before I'm home stopping on the block
Still innocent flirting with the pretty girls
Before we turned menacing and they became city girls
Summer time Florida hot hit the swimming pool
Young and dumb took my first drink in middle school
Fist fights wasn't gun play yet
Grandma taking me to church ain't even Sunday yet
Working two jobs had to raise ourselves
Only twelve hoping we behave ourselves
It wasn't working out hardly
I was sneaking out the house just to hit the house party ayye
When I was a boy had to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crack house
When you're growing up poor got to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crackhouse
I was running outside when the streetlights on ain't no coming outside ayye
Bunch of junkies outside and the dope boys getting to the money outside ayye
When you grow up living poor it gets tiring
All I see is crime as a part of my environment
Then your own kind want to up and frown on us
We ain't choose these conditions why you looking down on us
This community impoverished to me
Ain't nobody in my family have a college degree
Ain't no lawyers ain't no doctors I don't see no engineers
Not a whole lot of options when you end up living here
Doing wrong it can make you feel remorseful
No resources had to get resourceful
Yah forgive me I was trying to survive
Used to rent junkie cars how I taught myself to drive
Growing up fast couldn't take no nights off
Coming home to no food and the lights off
I was watching what the dope boys do
Now I'm only fourteen and I'm a dope boy to dang
When I was a boy had to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crack house
When you're growing up poor got to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crackhouse
I was running outside when the streetlights on ain't no coming outside ayye
Bunch of junkies outside and the dope boys getting to the money outside ayye

When I was a boy had to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crack house
When you're growing up poor got to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crackhouse
I was running outside when the streetlights on ain't no coming outside ayye
Bunch of junkies outside and the dope boys getting to the money outside ayye
I never knew how crazy it would get
I was walking to the candy lady just to get a flip
Hit the corner store them boys hanging out here
Og's said I better not see you slanging out here
Pop Warner little legend I could slang the rock
After school before I'm home stopping on the block
Still innocent flirting with the pretty girls
Before we turned menacing and they became city girls
Summer time Florida hot hit the swimming pool
Young and dumb took my first drink in middle school
Fist fights wasn't gun play yet
Grandma taking me to church ain't even Sunday yet
Working two jobs had to raise ourselves
Only twelve hoping we behave ourselves
It wasn't working out hardly
I was sneaking out the house just to hit the house party ayye
When I was a boy had to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crack house
When you're growing up poor got to pass the liquor store and the boarded up crackhouse
I was running outside when the streetlights on ain't no coming outside ayye
