Yale Buildings (Lyrics)

[Verse 1]

Yale Buildins, Architecture worth millions,
Located in a city just known for its killins.
Campus roaming ivy league,
and I know it's appealin'.
However never forget about the lonely civilians,
Chillin on the green, elm city where the tents were,
Also known as where the 99 percent were.
Used to catch the D bus,
Crack of dawn headphones all up in my ear,
Headed downtown..let's go.
Toads Place shows, music videos,
We all did that shit downtown.
And I fuckin met a couple hoes,
Demonstrated flows,
and I'm just thinkin bout how,
I'm living out in Cali, yet I'm always thinking heavy,
Bout my family in Connecticut and how it really raised me,
But uh ..
I never turn my back on where I came from,
Look...it's all about day 1

[Hook]
And I ain't gone, no I ain't gone,
I'm always down for the spot I'm from.
It's always gonna be about my home,
and this i know baby, this i know.
Yale Buildins architecture worth millions,
La da da, da da
Yale Buildings architecture worth millions,
La da da, da da.

[Verse 2]
I'm just taking me a stroll down that memory lane,
Knew that 1 day I would leave and it eventually came,
But I'm still taking flights out whenever I'm able,
But it's hard nowadays, I can't even afford cable, ay,
Shout outs to my hometown,
Hamden that's my stable hey,
All the folk that I rarely see like a triple play.
But know that if I ever spoke to you,
joked with you,
I fuck with you and if we don't talk everyday,
Man..
I've always been that dude that you could vibe with,
Used to hit the whole school up on my sidekick,
And used to ball out behind church street,
and rappers loved me cause I sold beats for dirt cheap.
Back then I couldn't comprehend the word sleep,
Anything but grind man I would prefer least,
But..
I never turn my back on where I came from,
Look...it's all about day 1

[Hook]
And I ain't gone, no I ain't gone,
I'm always down for the spot I'm from.
It's always gonna be about my home,
and this i know baby, this i know.
Yale Buildins architecture worth millions,
La da da, da da
Yale Buildings architecture worth millions,
La da da, da da.
