Growing up in NYC is goat

[K.O.N.Y]

Taking the train and knowing all the routes by age 11

Growing up in a city that had every race in your elementary,middle and high school

Class trips to the statue of liberty,empire state building,bronx zoo,coney island etc


Remembering the day 9/11 happened and the city looking like a "day after tomorrow" movie set

I was born in 1980.
Raised out in the suburbs.

And even there you saw some rough shyt.
But nothing like NYC back in the mid-1980s until like 1997.

Being in NYC in like 1986?



Even though the city had more soul back then, I wouldn't want no part of that shyt.

Visiting new york and living in new york is two different things but i guess its the same feeling for people who grew up elsewhere but seeing certain things and experiences you'll only get to see in new york

I love small town living, but I would've gotten into so much more shyt as a youth in a city like NY

Would've been a more rough and rugged version of Hey Arnold

80s was some shyt. Waking up to empty crack vials all over the place in front of the crib, fiends out there trying to snatch up kids, graffiti everywhere, needles in payphone coin slots
