Summer
The Great St. Louis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I miss the skies
I miss the guns sounds
I miss my guys
Let’s hope time flies
Don’t wanna spend my summer inside
Let’s hope time flies
Don’t wanna spend my summer inside
Guess that’s why they call it window pain
I was switching lanes when you last saw me
Now I’m only switching lanes in that GTA
Bought a couple fits
In closets they sit
I hit up my bros
They still ain’t on shit
I don’t wanna spend my summer inside
No I don't
No I don't
No I don't wanna spend it inside
No I don't
No I don't
I don't wanna spend my summer inside
