I
I can paint the dawn with a sunrise
I wish I could for you
I
I can touch a cold day with springtime
I wish I could for you
Cold day in the summer right
when you think that it's over
That's when *****s put you under yea
that inner city weather
When crooks is always ready
you should walk around with toolies
Tucked inside they pellie
pellies had a cousin made me look out
to make sure no one is lookin'
With the stash in the back
stashed the bag in the bushes
didn't want me to know either
Fu*k rules took jewels ran
by her procedure so
He slanging out his granny house
just to stay fresh
didn't wanna wear hand me downs
The cost of that drama
some money flow lil gold plus
a couple baby mamas
I
I can paint the dawn with a sunrise
I wish I could for you
I
I can touch a cold day with springtime
I wish I could for you
Cold day like snow day
Brands new whips and driving slowly
Pulled over by them boys
in the neighborhood
they don't know me
Whips too nice it might be stolen
he gotta be rolling you gotta be kidding
Wanna search the ride *****
you gotta be sniffing
Only thing inside was the CD
with the name on it
Let him slide
but the next guy might
just put the blame on him
Ain't nothing changed on that block
we used to run up up
Some heads left and a few more houses boarded up
They needed more than luck but
They still crack a summertime
smile in the city more than rough
I
I can paint the dawn with a sunrise
I wish I could for you
I
I can touch a cold day with springtime
I wish I could for you
