Summer Up

(album: There You Have It - 2017)

I'm tryna get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)
Tryna get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)
I've been tryna get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)
Tryna get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)

Look, I say every time I step into the game gotta hustle quick
Hungry nigga buffet, I never stomached it
They call me REASON select, you know the government
Seem big headed but more grinding than punishment
Came from the struggle so trust that I know what punished meant
Somebody asked me, "Is REASON still spittin'?"
Shit, Janikowski still kicking, Nip Hussle still cripping
Sprained ankle still limping, perm web still dipping
Fuck you thought, nigga?
God with me I hustle straight off the cross with it
'Till the crib is big enough to put lofts in it
Go through a lot for lots, long as the cars in it
The frauds in it, we make it by being authentic
Swag like chicken nuggets, I got the sauce with it
Lyrics potent, you know it so when I quote it
You gotta go deep for you to catch it like Randy Moss did it
Rick Ross the whip, you know the boss in it

Benz 'fore a summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)
I'm been tryna get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz for the summer up Benz 'fore the summer up)
I've been tryna get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up Benz 'fore the summer up)
Tryna get a new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up Benz for the summer up)

Time running out quick, I'm working nigga, it's like I got the clock right on me
Hoping God never hit the stop watch on me, shit
I got a lot move living, a lot more giving
A lot more sinning, a lot more learning
A lot less finished, I've been through a lot
I took a lot but I get a lot because I put a lot more in it
I'm never thinking like, "Yo, I got a lot more minutes"
'Cause when Kendal died I learned the clock keep ticking
Like damn, wish I could get him back
Used to spit it to P before I would finish raps
Now he here and we're finished, I'm in the zone with it
Look on his face let's me know it's hitting home with him
I done kinda, I kinda got in the groove of it
Sliding through the streets like the niggas in Cool Runnings
I see a shot, word to JR, you know that I'ma take it
Keep shooting 'til I know that I'ma make it
Fuck the stats nigga, you gotta put up attempts
Pops said this, he gave me the hustle, nigga shut up and sprint
'Til you're running through, the game bring out the worst in you like summers do
Summers bringing out murders still in their sun dresses
Swear them dresses make a faithful nigga break necks
I'm trying take steps so I can be the greatest
Hip-hop Don shit, I'm trying keep it alive like incubators
See I'm waiting so know it's the realest 'cause REASON made it
These niggas ain't gonna give me a lane, I penetrate it
Fuck patience for opportunity I'm finished waiting
So know I put my heart in every statement
P asked me, "Is REASON still workin'?" Shit
Nigga, is Amber Rose still twerkin'? Gold diggers still flirting
Horny teens still jerking, all my ex's still lurking
Black lives still hurting, black lives still hurting

Nigga Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)
Nigga I've been tryna get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)
I've been tryna get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)
Tryna get a new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)
Look upgraded now I got a new Bentley 'fore the summer up (Bentley 'fore the summer up, Bentley 'fore the summer up)
Trying to get a new Bentley 'fore the summer up (Bentley 'fore the summer up, Bentley 'fore the summer up)
Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up Benz 'fore the summer up)
I've been tryna get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)

Loosing people everyday I'm trying hold together
Too many games to roll so we can't grow together
Nice to know 'em, I'm praying my next'll know me better
Feelin's dripping I'm praying that I ain't soaking in 'em
Dreams getting close, working 'til my mama in a different space
She in the hood, I ain't sleeping until she in a place
Where she can see the difference
Walk out, go outside, grand kids, picket fences, nigga listen

Nigga, Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up, Benz 'fore the summer up)
I've been trying to get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up Benz 'fore the summer up)
I'm trying to get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up Benz 'fore the summer up)
Young nigga trying to get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up Benz 'fore the summer up)
