Cold day in the summer right when you think that it's over That's when n***as put you under, yeah, the inner city weather With crooks is always ready, you should walk around with toolies tucked inside they belly bellys Had a cousin made me lookout to make sure no one was looking Put the stash in the bag, stash the bag in the bushes Didn't want me there no either f** rules, took j**els, ran by hood procedures so spring He flagging at his granny house just to stay fresh, didn't want that, no hand-me-downs The cost of that drama, so money flow, lil' gold plus a couple baby mommas
Yeah, go there like snow there Brand new whips and robbing slowly Pour them boys in the neighborhood they know me Whips too nice, they might be stolen He gotta be rolling, you gotta be kidding On a social ride, n***a, you gotta be sniffing Only thing inside was a CD with the name on it Let it slide but the next guy might just put the blame on him Nothing changed on that block we used to run one up Some heads left and a few more houses boarded up They needed more than luck but they seem to crack a summertime smile And this city more than rough
