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 Remember when I ain't have it, thanking God for the A/C 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
