[Intro: Jazzy Jeff Sample]
Drums please
[Verse 1: DeStorm]
Yeah because I make those better choices
And we grew up no cell phones just bigger voices
Because I've come this far and turning back was pointless
Knowing that if I didn't make it here life is worthless
Mom would be proud as sh**; plaques, awards, and scholarships
Can't believe how far I've come since me and J.A.M.E.S. has started this
Look at what my dollars get: brand new trucks, Hawaiian trips
Random f**s and brand new pumps she standing up yes I insist
The odds were against us, but we swung for the fences, and covered our bases
So many cases they started the race but fell on their faces
Jess said it wouldn't work out, Kathy got her heart broke
Asia's got two kids now, but I apologize for my communication
Now I'm out in NoHo making dough dough, ain't no traffic where I go, though
I ain't wait around for no hoe, I mean NoHo
Haters see success and everything I do
Now it's just a layup got my weight up only pockets tell the truth
[Hook: Tonic]
We party like it's summer everyday
We put the work in now we straight
Praise God look what he did for me
Summer summertime, man it feel like everyday
All my friends around me; no time for the fakes
Summer summertime, man it feel like everyday
Summer summertime, man it feel like everyday
Summer summertime, man it feel like everyday
[Verse 2: DeStorm]
Around the way it's who you know not what you know
Down that double [?] be surprised how far [?] go
Riding with my woes now all the windows rolled down
No chairs at the table we forgot to bring the fold outs, damn (summertime)
Time to drop tops on the jeeps, crop tops for the beach, flip flops on our feet then we (summertime)
Put gram, pops onto the latest dance; ladies are tryna trap a man, all my family with me now
And haters see success and everything we do
Now it's just a layup got my weight up only pockets tell the truth
[Hook: Tonic]
[Verse 3: DeStorm]
Flow so dangerous how you goin win if you ain't with us
Most success ain't strange to us now I take the Benz used to take the bus
Came up now I'm pa**ed that got a summer home where I crash at
Got a couple phones from a couple zones and they filled with numbers; Nasdaq, that's facts
With all this bullsh** going on got me looking at the world strange
It's bigger than hate, it's bigger than race, it's bigger than us, it's a world thang
See the bigger picture, world frame, in desperate need of some world change
In the lost city we just lost 50 and they hit at home when we lost Grimmie in the summertime
[Hook: Tonic]
[Outro: Tonic]
Summer summer summertime
Ohhh time to sit back and rewind
Summer summer summertime
