Rainbow Beach

Baby we'll escape
We'll go to South shore nicest spot
Away from rundown apartments
With huge vacant lots
Summer heat make us flock
Feeling the cool breeze
Abandoned churches line down
79th street

We arrive at the scene
Good times are had by families
Barbecue and activities
Love you look sexy
We can smoke near a fire pit
Afterward we'll get intimate
Residents say the 7th ward is scary

At least my Betty is beautiful

We're at Rainbow beach
We're at Rainbow beach

Baby we'll escape
We'll go to South shore nicest spot
Pass by streetlight memorials
Flowers wither, balloons pop
Kids morn those killed by gunshots
Folks died tragically
Friends weep
At acts of violence in
Bloods territory

We arrive at the scene
Neighbors chill at the bird and butterfly sanctuary
Lake Michigan is serene
Bums are stung out, drug dealers avoid police
Assholes make the 7th ward scary

At least Chicago is beautiful

We're at Rainbow beach
We're at Rainbow beach

Rainbow beach
Rainbow beach
Interracial love in the hood
How unique
Rainbow beach
Rainbow beach
People say we shouldn't live here
Danger to fear
Right by rainbow beach
Rainbow beach
Rainbow beach
The locale allows
Rent cost to run cheap
So cheap
Rainbow beach
We best enjoy the sites and parks
How'd did we start
Gentrification?
