1
Yeah, hot summer morning
2
Summer but, ain't summer vacation yet
3
What them shorties doin on the block still?
4
Psst, 93 degrees
5
I ain't chilled on my front steps in a minute
6
Let me kick it
7
[Verse 1]
8
Yo, I travel round the world doin shows and such
9
But no matter where I go, you know I'm never losin touch
10
With home base, that's where I rest my head
11
Sometimes I be in Paradise and yearn for home instead
12
And this morning I'm here chillin right on my front steps
13
And I'm watchin all the shorties tryin to flex they reps
14
Like I got the hottest bike and I got the newest kicks
15
And it's cool 'til you throw some crime up in the mix
16
I'm been tellin little Corey even since he was six
17
Just cause your mom's a chickenhead, don't get caught up with these tricks
18
Now he's only thirteen and he's caught in a fix
19
Quittin school and findin work to raise a seed in the bricks (damn)
20
But I gotta believe he'll be aight
21
Cause he's young and down to work and plus his family's tight
22
Aiyyo there go my niggas from (AH!), here come my niggas from (YO!)
23
Get over here while I twist this dro
24
Yeah ma, we see ya shakin your head, don't get it twisted
25
We all got jobs but right now we gettin lifted
26
To build on the stress of the world (yo Kev match this)
27
Tryin to tell the shorties these ghetto survival tactics
28
But look at you with your stetch pants shakin that ass
29
But soon as one of us step up to you, you startin actin gassed
30
Like baby girl be cheddar or baby girl is out
31
That's exactly what the fuck we right here talkin about
32
[Hook] - 2X
33
Whether you on the dance floor shakin your hips
34
Or your coolin on your steps makin beats with your lips
35
Or even at the car wash shinin up the whip
36
Turn this shit up, see that Mr. Akrobatik rips
37
[Verse 2]
38
Yeah, morning turns to afternoon around my spot
39
You don't have to search for proof to see it's "Ghetto Red Hot"
40
Cats know they should be in school, but still they not
41
Instead they learn that crime is only crime if you get caught
42
It would be better if there was a pops around
43
To say ignore them dirty looks instead of "pop the clown"
44
But right across the street you could see Big Kent
45
No job, loungin on the fire escape bent
46
Don't support his kids and his girl pay his rent
47
If his seeds turn foul, it's not by accident
48
Old men always diggin in my trash for cans
49
Can't help but tell myself it's cause they lacked a plan
50
Makes me thank God that I got a crew that's tight
51
That even when we fight, don't lose sight of what is right
52
Night's right around the corner, my niggas is about to go
53
But for now we just coolin outside puffin some dro
54
[Hook]
55
[Verse 3]
56
Yo, night strikes, the temperature drops
57
Everybody's more on they toes, crooks and cops (*police sirens*)
58
Off in the distance is sirens and light flashes
59
I contemplate what's goin on, while makin blunt ashes
60
I'm think to myself like 'HEY!'
61
It's been a minute since I sat on the steps all day
62
Hopin to hear somebody drive by bumpin Ak
63
But my people all confused by the commercial attack
64
Yo, one day I'll move from the city I love
65
But no matter when I rest the Bean I'm always thinkin of
66
Prayin that the black folk get it together
67
Unity, financial stability, whatever
68
Cause all I really see when I'm on my front steps
69
Is the possibility a whole generation slept
70
While I'm here I'll do my best to reverse that flow
71
But for now I'm just coolin right here puffin some dro
72
[Hook]
73
Yeah
