Chance The Rapper - Summer Friends Lyrics






[Intro:]
Oh, oh, oh, incredible
I would... incredible
Everything...

[Verse 1 - Chance The Rapper:]
Socks on concrete, jolly rancher kids
I was talking back and now I gotta stay at grandma's crib
Bunch of tank top, nappy headed bike-stealing Chatham boys
None of my nigga's ain't had no dad
None of my nigga's ain't have no choice
JJ, Mikey, Lil Derek and them
79th street was America then
Ice cream truck and the beauty supply
Blockbuster movies and Harold's again
We still catching lightening bugs
When the plague hit the backyard
Had to come in at dark cause the big shawty's act hard
Okay now Dave grandpa grand crossing
First day, nigga's shooting
Summer school get to losing students
But the CPD getting new recruitment
Our summer don't, our summer, our summer don't get no shine no more
Our summer die, our summer time don't got no time no more

[Hook - Chance The Rapper & (Francis & The Lights):]
(You're my friend)
Summer friends don't stay
Summer friends don't stay around
Summer friends, summer friends
Summer friends don't stay
Summer friends don't stay, hey
Stay around

[Verse 2 - Chance The Rapper:]
Oh I used to kill 'em with the long hair
Momma had salon doing perms out the armchair
Yeah we're working late, he treat the crib like it's a timeshare
I would mow some lawns for my ones like a lawn chair, hugh, hugh!
Now I'm the same way, over time all the time, every night, hey
Ready my blessing, now I'm ready how I wait
Never let a friendship get in my way
Never let a blog get in my way
Make the whole song do whatever I say
79, 79, 79, 79 place
79, 79, 79, 79 place
Some of my homegirls got lost in the paperwork
They was good friends but I faked the clerk
Cause if it ain't work, can't make it work
It's been a minute since I called on a friend
Fucked up and fucked all my friends
All my friends, all my...

[Chorus - Chance The Rapper & (Francis & The Lights):]
Stick around
Summer friends, summer...
(You're my friend...)
Summer friends don't stick around
Stick around
(And some of us...)
79, 79, 79, 79, hey
79, 79, 79, 79, hey, hey, hey
(You're my friend)
79, 79, 79, 79, hey, 79
(So put your head on my shoulder)
City wide, city wide, city wide, hey
City wide, city wide, city wide, hey
City wide, city wide, city wide, hey
City wide, city wide, city wide, hey
City wide, city wide, city wide
City wide, city wide, city wide
City wide, city wide, city wide
City wide, city wide, city wide
City wide, city wide, city wide
City wide, city wide, city wide...
(I will wait around for you)
(I will wait around for you)
(So lay your head...)

[Interlude:]
May the Lord give your journey mercy
May you be successful, grant you favor
And bring you back safely, I love you

[Outro - Jeremih:]
When I was so young before I could remember
I would always treat my gang like family members
Even when the changing nigga never changed up
I always bring my friends, my friends up
When I was so young before I could remember
I would always treat my gang like family members
Even when the changing nigga never changed up
I always bring my friends, my friends up

    2019? Lol

  22. s.... ....

    about halfway through august, at the beginning of the school year, i met a guy in one of my classes. i didn't think much of him at once, but we started talking more and more, i hung out with him in the evenings, and i fell in love. we never were in an official relationship, but we wanted to be. he made me feel so wanted and happy. he was perfect, i would literally do anything for him. caring, kind, beautiful, he was everything i had ever looked of hoped for. we got so attached to each other, or at least i did. one night we were just chillin in his truck and this song came on, he softly sang the lyrics to this while planting soft kisses on my face, all i remembered was the line "fucked all my friends". the lyrics brought back so much nostalgia. now every day we get more distant, every night i cry myself to sleep because i genuinely don't think i'll ever find anyone like him ever again. he barely talks to me anymore, we haven't hung out in weeks, he's probably moved on. i should have valued him so much more when i had him, those ever precious two months. summer friends never stay :,)

    the beginning is my favorite part!! and that pause when the music goes in and out was fire!!!

  72. J.... T....

    This song reminds me of a girl I always used to talk to I the summer but when it ended she was gone 😔

  73. K.... S....

    I live in Chicago and I know what this song means. But on a totally irrelevant personal level - after my dad died this song came on shuffle and I burst into tears. I listened to this song a lot on repeat when I lived alone in the middle of nowhere without a car and had to walk 40 mins just to get to the grocery store. And sometimes I’d not listen to music and call my dad instead and we’d talk like we always did. A few months later he died. And I hadn’t realized that I related this song and my dad to to that walk. Even though they were separate I can’t help think of walking alone at the end of winter with bags of groceries - alone. Not really knowing what alone really was - cause my dad was a phone call away. And now he’s not

    K.... S....

    stay strong b. He's still witchu man.

    K.... S....

    Angel Guerrero random timing. I was just thinking about my dad. Thanks ❤️

  74. R.... ....

    That Jeremih part made me tear up because I thought of Nipsey Hussle. Goodbye King.

    [Intro: Francis & The Lights]
    Ooh, ooh, ooh, incredible
    My lord... incredible
    I believe...

    [Verse 1: Chance The Rapper]
    Socks on concrete, Jolly Rancher kids
    I was talkin' back and now I gotta stay at grandma's crib
    Bunch of tank-top, nappy headed bike-stealin' Chatham boys
    None of my niggas ain't had no dad
    None of my niggas ain't have no choice
    JJ, Mikey, Lil Derek and them
    79th street was America then
    Ice cream truck and the beauty supply
    Blockbuster movies and Harold's again
    We were still catchin' lightnin' bugs
    When the plague hit the backyard
    Had to come in at dark cause the big shortys act hard
    Okay now, day camp at Grand Crossing
    First day, nigga's shootin'
    Summer school get to losin' students
    But the CPD getting new recruitment
    Our summer don't, our summer
    Our summer don't get no shine no more
    Our summer die, our summertime don't got no time no more

    [Chorus: Chance The Rapper + Francis & The Lights]
    'Cause you're my friend
    Summer friends don't stay
    You're my friend
    Summer friends don't stay, stay around
    Summer friends, summer friends
    You're my friend
    Summer friends don't stay
    Summer friends don't stay, hey
    Stay around here

    [Verse 2: Chance The Rapper]
    Oh I used to kill 'em with the long hair
    Mama hair salon doin' perms out the armchair
    Dad was workin' late, he treat the crib like it's a timeshare
    I would mow some lawns
    Fold my ones like a lawn chair, hugh, hugh!
    Now I'm the same way, overtime all the time, every night, hey
    Ready my blessin', now I'm ready how I wait
    Never let a friendship get in my way
    Never let a blog get in my way
    Make the whole song do whatever I say
    79th, 79th, 79th, hey
    79th, 79th, 79th, hey
    Some of my homegirls got lost in the paperwork
    They was good friends but I faked the flirt
    'Cause if it ain't work, can't make it work
    It's been a minute since I called on a friend
    Fucked up and fucked all my friends

    [Pre-Chorus: Chance The Rapper & Francis & The Lights]
    'Cause you're my friend
    All my friends
    You're my friend
    All my...

    May the Lord give your journey mercy
    May you be successful, grant you favor
    And bring you back safely, I love you

    [Outro: Jeremih]
    When I was so young before I could remember
    I would always treat my gang like family members
    Even when I changed, a nigga never changed up
    I always bring my friends, my friends, my friends, my friends up
    When I was so young before I could remember
    I would always treat my gang like family members
    Even when I changed, a nigga never changed up
    I always bring my friends, my friends, my friends, my friends up
