Intro (Klashnekoff) I remember walking the street yeah And being a kid and people used to look at you and smile That whole phase of just like, yeah… People were just way more open in regards to speaking to each other And a bit more, just way more, it seemed more… Yeah it seemed much more pleasant back then, you nah mean? In terms of the way people interact with each other… Yeah, coming back to Hackney and just seeing all the new builds, Et Cetera And um, just seeing all these people, you know Quote, unquote middle class people, walking around really happy Do you know what I'm saying? It was, quite of a shock It was a bit of a shock… It was a madness as well, the energy, and when you… As you're entering in the park as a young youth and just that.. That energy of the people, do you know what I mean? Was amazing [Verse One] I came a long way from Nightingale, Downs Park and Narroway Lea bridge, I used to go skating on a Saturday PJ Records, new releases so I checked em Wired For Sound was just a couple yards, a couple seconds away The number seventy-three was Stokey bound from Victoria Sunny Delight was California The prefix was 9-8-6 and 9-8-5 And 5-3-3, that's how you got me on the line And I tried to keep a look out for who I'd see Going in and out the borough on the 253 Or the 106, I used to go check Stixx Chicago Bulls, San Antonio, the New York Knicks We used to wear the jerseys and share soda when we thirsty For no backwash, whoever paid would be the first B Memories of nursery at five years old And it's the only place that I call home, you know? They say I'm way too grown to represent postcodes But it's part of my history From the memories of old to the people I know And everything that this place taught me I've been around the world, but I gotta return to the place of my history From the memories of old to the people I know And everything that this place taught me They say it ain't where you're from, it's where you're at But this place is my history From the memories of old to the people I know And everything that this place taught me Hackney, Hackney, Hackney [Verse Two] (Yo), I came a long way from Chatsworth, Shacklewell and Evering Fights in the school and I'm hyped on adrenaline Staying out late after class was forbidden Then my Brother got bitten by a Dog up in Wigan Going through the alley by the church where they're born again I used to get Well Street mixed up with Morning Lane E5, E8, E9, N16 Older kids are luring younger kids into a quick scheme We didn't need crime for danger to feel real Take a bicycle with no brakes down to Spring Hill Then you'd see what time it is, this ain't a joke So we had to learn to grow a thick skin to be surviving this Just like performers at the 291 club I'm never on the stairs of an estate when it stunk of weed and urine Cos I'd break out, now let the vocal and the beat play out, no doubt They say I'm way too grown to represent postcodes But it's part of my history From the memories of old to the people I know And everything that this place taught me I've been around the world, but I gotta return to the place of my history From the memories of old to the people I know And everything that this place taught me They say it ain't where you're from, it's where you're at But this place is my history From the memories of old to the people I know And everything that this place taught me Hackney, Hackney, Hackney [Outro (Klashnekoff)] Memories of Hackney man! Growing up in the Hood You get me? Just… just innocent and um The vibe, do know what I mean? There was definitely a vibe in the air when I was young of just… You know, it's that community spirit, that vibe of just… Everyone knows everyone, do know what I'm saying? And everyone's watching everyone, you know As in Parents watching Children, Et Cetera And you'd have to worry about your neighbours telling your Mum Do you know what I'm saying? If you got in trouble or what-not Or if you done something wrong or what-not Um, Hackney Man! Just so many memories...
