Where I'm from the northsiders clash with the southsiders when it comes to baseball
Growing up gunshots and gangs weren't the main topic of conversation like it is today
Kids were safe to play outside without fear
You knew you better run home when the church bells rang or you'd miss dinner
Where I'm at now is much more peaceful
If you forget to lock your door at night, no one breaks in
I don't see graffiti all over the walls of buildings
Your neighbors to each side of you and across the street want to know you
