Lyrics

Yeah
Before the clubs, before the cameras, before the miles
We had a place
East Forty Third
Boys And Girls Club
Kansas City summers
East Forty Third Street, that concrete knew my name
Every summer same routine, different schools, same flame
Didn’t matter where you from, when that bell rang loud
Whole city funneled in, one building, one crowd
Wanda ran it like a mayor, cousin had it on lock
Say my name sideways, you miss weeks on the clock
Protection came natural, I ain’t flex it for sport
Rules was rules back then, not these threads on the court
Pool tables clacking, table tennis in the back
Ping pong echo off the walls, summers never lacked
Swim trunks, wet floors, rumors couldn’t stick
Tell ‘em don’t believe that lie, yeah we swim, real quick
That place raised us, shaped us, gave us spine
When the city felt heavy, BAGC was mine
No captions, no filters, just time
East Forty Third taught me patience before grind
B A G C, summers stamped in me
Every block, every school, whole city family
B A G C, remember me
If you lived it, you know what it meant to be
Larry Wren opened gyms early, smell of rubber and sweat
Ball all day, sun still rising, hadn’t peaked yet
Only got dunked on twice, yeah that’s facts not hype
Once was Earl Maples, summer leading to my junior life
Crowd went quiet for a second, then the noise came back
Learned respect ain’t lost when you hit the floor flat
Under the rim a little kid, maybe eight, eyes wide
Staring like he just witnessed royalty glide
King Kevin, no crown, just presence and walk
Didn’t know then how life circles back when it talks
Years later same kid married into my blood
What up Londo, funny how time shows love
B A G C, that’s legacy
Before the chains, before the mic, before destiny
B A G C, yeah that was me
East Forty Third summers made the man you see
Girls from everywhere, couldn’t name ‘em if I tried
Different uniforms, same laughs, same side eye
Raytown South energy pulled me in slow
Shalon was the first, but that’s another song though
Summer crushes hit different when the days that long
When love felt simple, before right and wrong
No socials, no proof, just presence and vibe
You had to be there, not just hear the rhyme
Lessons came quietly, between games and breaks
How to read rooms, how to move, what’s real, what’s fake
BAGC wasn’t bricks, it was code
How to stand on your name wherever you go
Now I pass that street with a slower drive
See ghosts of them summers in the corner of my eye
Some made it out, some stayed trapped
Some still chasing youth they can’t get back
That building gave hope without preaching loud
Just structure, discipline, space in the crowd
If you know, you know, can’t Google that feeling
It’s earned, not streamed, no algorithm dealing
Boys And Girls Club
That wasn’t just a building
That was protection
That was first love
First loss
First lesson
East Forty Third Street raised a lot of us
Even if the city changed the paint
I carry that summer in my walk
In my tone
In my patience
BAGC forever
