Lyrics:

[Grant The Hierophant]

What's up motherfuckers? Here we go again,

It's the old-school boy hopping new-school trends,

While I pissed off some, others became friends,

So a hearty knuckle-knock is what I offer them,

The summer breeze? It reminds me,

Of long lost lasting lovely memories,

Birds are chirping and peeps are bumpin',

Enthusiasm's up and everyone will jump in,

Sun-kissed skin, it's a careless epoch,

The part of my life not filled with these thoughts,

Of horror beyond human comprehension,

I'll lay on the beach and there goes my tension,

Stress and ache and the daily grind,

Have no place during summertime,

Kick my up feet, it's that not tough,

To vibe with this kind of stuff, 

Hella nice to just watch water break,

It's all good for goddamn goodness sake,

Summertime is here to stay,

All the other seasons can go the fuck away,

[Anjovi]

Fuck fans, I need AC,

Get off your Instagram, Twitter, employment and make peace,

Mushrooms and laced weed, open your melon, graze on the leaves,

Awaken, tee splotched in blood taking away by police,

Did some dumb shit yesterday and today it repeats,

Fuck history and the shit that they feed, take it at ease,

Fruits of seasonal working at fast food jobs,

No "have to do what?"s, ogling summer asses and butts,

Writing raps and stuff, yeah I'm a relatable guy,

Just living out all the depraved shit you deny,

Your makeshift lies, baked as a pie, naked I lie, bitch,

antagonize bacon bites, wavin' the nightsticks,

Trite, but that's the way that it is, AI replacing my shit,

Lamenting over crinkly bags from McDicks,

This is summertime, ain't going Pulitzer,

Just pull out the liquor or spritzers, open the lids up,

Clitoris, dicks, mixed bits, this, for all the critters,

That floated up from the ocean to sweat it up,

We're all gonna get it one day, but don't sweat it love,

Got dope smokes and mirrors to cozy 'til, winter frosts,

[Gminor]

The heat is on, so say the cicadas, 

Under the rays of sunshine fun times await us, 

Today's the greatest, what a beauty, truly, 

Bottles sweat and wet the koozie, 

Summer nights where life's a movie, 

Hearts are light and Vibes are groovy, 

How you been? It's good to catch up like burgers and dogs, 

Fresh off the barbecue they serve it with 'slaw, 

Come get your fill let's chill just like the brews in the cooler, 

The schools are closed and pools are open, 

Looser clothing, water balloons and Super Soakers, 

Let's play, bring the kids and eses, 

More love and less hate, pick a tune and press play, 

Kick back relax the stress away, 

I laugh and trek the sandy path to the boardwalk, 

Past the grassy dunes, soon splashing, 

Assume that we're meeting at the beach in trunks and bikinis, 

Seasons greetings, do as you please but take it easy, 

Just grab a plate and watch the waves crash we gravitate to happy places,

As the breezes sweep the haze back on this magical Saturday,

Hey, let's get busy, who brought the frisbee? I'm ready,

Lifeguard won't let me jump off the jetty,

No matter, the sun's setting but we're just getting started, 

Pile back in the car,

We're heading back to the house to kick off the party, y'all. 

I welcome all the peeps of course, take a seat on the porch, 

Yes I keep the mosquitoes scorched with a tiki torch, 

Hangin' so late that it's early, now we can say our goodbyes, 

Or you could stick around with me and watch the sunrise.
