Salute to Summer

Dear summer, I know you gon' miss me

For we been together like Nike Airs and crisp tees

...Gimme couple years, I might just sneak in

A couple words and like peaches and herb

...I do this in my slumber summer

I ain't none of these half-assed newcomers, you know how I do summer

I drop heat, when you bring the sun up

To my beloved, think we need some time away

They say if you love it, you should let it out its cage

And if it comes back you know it's there to stay

It's tugging, at my heart, but this time apart is needed

Still shine light down on all my peers

I know they weird... some queer, I still want them to share

And all the success I received, I know you can't believe

I still love 'em but they don't love me

They like the drunk uncle in your family

You know they lame, you feel ashamed, but you love 'em the same

Listen here summer baby, I just believe it's the right thing to do

I got a brand new chick, corporate America

She showing me a lot of action right now

And I know you put me on my feet and all, but

I mean, it's time for me to grow

You gotta let me go baby, you gotta let me go

I'm done for now, so one for now

Possibly forever, we had fun together

But like all good things, we must come to an end

Please show the same love to my friends

Dear summer
