Dear Summer
Dear Summer for where have you gone
 The sunny days the picnics the fun
 The Summer Jobs bare witness to funds
 Soon as your leave the school years begun
 
 We’re in the hallways backpakin'
 Attract static like wool fabric
 They can’t stand it
 But "F" the teachers and Security too
 
 While you were here, we hope that our maturity grew
 Better use security too...
 Or, take test for an eternity dude
 Real talk I’m only learning you dude
 My friend Mike’s taking Math, English, and Paternity too
 
 And then Sue text, Sally and Sally text Ed
 Man, He really should’ve took sex ed
 But that’s Enough Gossip Its not Cool
 This letters not about school it’s about you
 
 You feeling hopeless yet? That’s how we felt!
 Life in the fast lane, with no seat belt
 And the tags fake, still at this fast pace
 But, all our vast prays got us through last may
 
 Its kinda scary, Why? Because its kinda different
 How the underdogs Overpowered Clifford
 All the hardships that’s what made ya Boy
 Through the clouds of misery i see the rays of joy
 Momma told me "Don’t talk to strangers boy"
 But in her mind know she couldn’t have had a stranger boy
 
 With a mind like his and a vocabulary so scary
 It made Bloody Marry scream Bloody Marry
 
 This is all fact, I don’t at all rap
 I spit raw facts, now what you call that
 To all the dudes in the trap with that raw crack
 Wanna stop but, they pay the bills where they moms at
 The ones who called that chick who ain’t call back
 Under all that Maybelline she ain’t all that
 So stand tall mack, throw some cheese her way
 And, if she come running, then that’s what we call rats
 
 Stuck in the slums so we feeling like we’re targets
 So we figured we'd write this regardless
 This coming from all us, I mean all us
 The Mothers, Sisters, Cousins, Daughters
 
 To everyone with lost fathers
 From all the people with fathers who couldn't feel farther
 Feeling like they forgot us
 But we forgot them…
 
 Which means we're not acquainted
 I feel like i ain’t Ish
 When it came to raising his¬¬¬¬ own he wasn’t anxious
 I got all the money in the world but to me it don’t make sense
 
 I know it sounds like I’m whining or crying but I’m just being Honest
 But the beat ends here and so will I, Summer I'll write you next August
