Summer in the City

First summer of the millennium
Dre dropped the Chronic 2001
Kobe, Shaq and the Lakers won it
First learned how to use my dick
J-Lo was my first woman
I had visions of us ridin' with no top through Compton
Wasn't old enough to drive but I was old enough to dream
And right there I had seen how much summer would mean to me
Years later in my teens trying to slide between the knees
Of somebody's daugher, puberty makes a dog in heat
Rolling up a swisher sweet, nobody mama at home
Firing up a blunt at 11 o'clock in the morn
Years later we would mourn
Summertime brought storms
Too many young lost lives every summer where I'm from
Niggas robbing everyday, taking everybody shit
'08 trap was jumping like Olympics Atlanta '96
Switched up the hustle but some of the same paper still spend it
So we can shine and ball every summer in the city

Flipped to summertime in H-town
Top down playing surround
Already feel like home though Im new to the town
Copped a crib in Uptown
Right off Westheimer
No foreign in the Chevy and thats how Im comin' down on 'em
20-inch blades on my Impala
Full time grinder and a part time baller
Keep a few part time hoes, hit but never call 'em
In the summer we shine from all winter stacking dollars
All summer, riding dirty and clean
Been here but hoes acting like Im new on the scene
Cold on these hoes though the streets a 100 degrees
Under palm trees debating sipping drank or liquor
Women itching keep on hitting me up to kick it with 'em
And the skills they deliver
But I continue on my mission
Love the summer in the city, still a country 'Bama nigga
Hol' up
