Summer Up - Reason

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 grindin' than punishment

Came from the struggle so trust that I know what punished meant

Somebody asked me, «Is REASON still spittin'?»

Shit, Janikowski still kickin', Nip Hussle still crippin'

Sprained ankle still limpin', perm web still dippin'

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 bein' 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 runnin' out quick, I’m workin' nigga, it’s like I got the clock right on me

Hopin' God never hit the stop watch on me, shit

I got a lot move livin', a lot more givin'

A lot more sinnin', a lot more learnin'

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 thinkin' like, «Yo, I got a lot more minutes»

'Cause when Kendal died I learned the clock keep tickin'

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 hittin' home with him

I done kinda, I kinda got in the groove of it

Slidin' through the streets like the niggas in Cool Runnings

I see a shot, word to JR, you know that I’ma take it

Keep shootin' '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 runnin' through, the game bring out the worst in you like summers do

Summers bringin' out murders still in their sun dresses

Swear them dresses make a faithful nigga break necks

I’m tryin' take steps so I can be the greatest

Hip-hop Don shit, I’m tryin' keep it alive like incubators

See I’m waitin' 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 waitin'

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 flirtin'

Horny teens still jerkin', all my ex’s still lurkin'

Black lives still hurtin', black lives still hurtin'

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)

Tryin' 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)

Loosin' people everyday I’m tryin' hold together

Too many games to roll so we can’t grow together

Nice to know 'em, I’m prayin' my next’ll know me better

Feelin’s drippin' I’m prayin' that I ain’t soakin' in 'em

Dreams gettin' close, workin' 'til my mama in a different space

She in the hood, I ain’t sleepin' 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 tryin' to get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the

summer up Benz 'fore the summer up)

I’m tryin' to get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the summer up

Benz 'fore the summer up)

Young nigga tryin' to get that new Benz 'fore the summer up (Benz 'fore the

summer up Benz 'fore the summer up)
