Numbers

We got the numbers
We got the heat
We got the fire burning in the street

We got the numbers
We got the heat
We got the fire burning in the street


Summer
Like it was yesterday
You used to call my name
When I was younger
Summer
Won’t you come back to me
Bring back the memories
Of where I am from

I spent all summer long
Singing everybody songs
Put a bucket at my feet
Begged for money on the street
Working every single day
Tryna find another way
But I got more bills to pay
So I think I’m gonna stay

We got the numbers
We got the heat
We got the fire burning in the street

Summer
I don’t know where to run
Look how far I’ve come
Since the first time we met
Summer
Where have you been my friend
What happened to the end
You’d never guess

Would you cover up my eyes
And tell me that it’s fine
That I’m lucky I’m alive
Everybody’s doing time
You’re a raisin in the sun
A bullet from a gun
99 to 1
And there’s nothing to be done

We got the numbers
We got the heat
We got the fire burning in the street

Summer
When you were cool as ice
You used to sacrifice
What I would forget
Summer
I’m living day to day
Something will come my way
Hasn’t been yet

I just keep on keepin’ on
While the money is here and gone
Sing another song
But the words all come out wrong
I am not what I suppose
All I have to do is grow
But there’s nowhere left to go
So I’m banking on the show
