Lyrics

Chorus

Lock 3 raised me, yeah that’s where the love be,

Me, C-Law, J-Law, Wolf — that was family.

Back when the block was full, everybody outside,

Now the hood ain’t the same, got me lost in the vibe.

We used to hang, we used to smoke, we used to chill all night,

Good days fade away but the memories tight.

Oop Dog still reppin’, I ain’t switch on mine —

Lock 3 forever, we was built for the grind.

Verse

Back in Whitfield where the streetlights buzz,

We ain’t have much, but we made it what it was.

Old heads talkin’, lil’ kids runnin’ through,

Everybody knew ya mama and ya whole damn crew.

Oop Dog with the fade, bandana on tight,

C-Law crack jokes, had us hollin’ all night.

J-Law too cool, he was player with it,

Wolf hit the corner store, said “I’ll be back in a minute.”

We had dreams, but we ain’t know they’d leave so fast,

Now everybody grown up, life movin’ past.

Some moved out, some settled down with they boo,

But Lock 3 stamped on us — that’s forever truth.

Chorus

Lock 3 raised me, yeah that’s where the love be,

Me, C-Law, J-Law, Wolf — that was family.

Back when the block was full, everybody outside,

Now the hood ain’t the same, got me lost in the vibe.

We used to hang, we used to smoke, we used to chill all night,

Good days fade away but the memories tight.

Oop Dog still reppin’, I ain’t switch on mine —

Lock 3 forever, we was built for the grind.

Verse

I remember late nights on the porch just laughin’,

Talkin’ ‘bout life, all the crazy things that happened.

Block so alive — everybody knew the code,

Didn’t lock doors, cuz the whole hood rode.

Life hit fast — folks move, folks grow,

Some got kids, some got jobs, some had to lay low.

Now I drive through and the street feel quiet,

Like the soul packed up — ain’t no kids outside it.

But I still hear echoes of them summer days,

When the smoke hit the air and the music would play.

Oop Dog, Lock 3, I’ma rep till I’m gone —

Whitfield in my blood, that’s a lifelong song.

Chorus

Lock 3 raised me, yeah that’s where the love be,

Me, C-Law, J-Law, Wolf — that was family.

Back when the block was full, everybody outside,

Now the hood ain’t the same, got me lost in the vibe.

We used to hang, we used to smoke, we used to chill all night,

Good days fade away but the memories tight.

Oop Dog still reppin’, I ain’t switch on mine —

Lock 3 forever, we was built for the grind.
