Middle of Da Summer

[Intro]
Philly
Take 'em back to the plat', Meek!

[Chorus: Meek Mill]
Middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
In the middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
I used to play the block all night 'til the sun came up
Everybody got they gun game up
In the middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
Middle of the summer

[Verse 1: Meek Mill]
Stack all winter just to stunt in the summer
Riding in my new Camaro, sometimes I wonder
Will it take me under or will it make me stronger?
Thinking the times when I was broke it only gave me hunger
Shorty walking through the block it only made me want her
My homies were selling dope, and doing Jay-Z numbers
The nigga Moochie's wrist was cold and throwing AC Numbers
They only use to front us O’s, used to say we youngins
But we was ready though
Around the time when all the Roc was on the radio
Me and my niggas on the block with hammers heavy though
I used to put it in my hand ain't wanna let it go
Ain't wanna let it go, no
The work was low, the numbers was right
Used to play the summer league, couple youngins was nice
They ain't make it to the league 'cause it'll fuck up your life
In the middle of the summer when you fucking with white

[Chorus: Meek Mill]
Middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
In the middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
I used to play the block all night 'til the sun came up
Everybody got they gun game up
In the middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
Middle of the summer

[Verse 2: Meek Mill]
Charlie Mack was marching through, screaming "Stop the Violence"
He had Will Smith with him, trying to stop the wilding
But soon as they left the hood, man, shots was firing
Ambulances was rushing, somebody mama crying
They say the good don't make it here
Ain't no fighting hammer time and they gon' take it there
NARCs rushing, cops lock you like Jamaican hair
Young bull, sixteen, and got eighty years
Middle of the summer, people cooking out, old heads looking out
Rest in peace tees for the soldiers that got tooken out
I was in the streets, momma told me to be in the house
Ten o'clock I was on the block, moving in and out
City of brotherly love
I was only thirteen, I seen a puddle of blood
Grown man laying there, he got one in his mug
His grandma screaming, "Told you about selling them drugs!"

[Chorus: Meek Mill]
Middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
In the middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
I used to play the block all night 'til the sun came up
Everybody got they gun game up
In the middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
Middle of the summer

[Verse 3: Mel Love]
It was the middle of the summer
But it was feeling like the winter
July was feeling like December
We ball hard to the finish, uh
They say I'm cold 'cause I'm a winner
We had a quarter brickies, half of birdies
Stash box ride super dirty
Tryna get that money, ziplocks, nose candy
Back to back in them black caddies
And we said this is our summer, and we taking it there
I'm all up in this mirror, like look at this Audemar
Standing in my rear while starin at this painted mirror
Still tryna get it square, super fly how we Lear
Aw knocked out lights coming
NARC'd out mean a bike's coming
Smelling two stroke
These Philly streets will make you lose hope
Her son was murdered now she use coke
It was the

[Chorus: Meek Mill]
Middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
In the middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
I used to play the block all night 'til the sun came up
Everybody got they gun game up
In the middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
Middle of the summer
