"Numbers" lyrics

We got the numbers
We got the heat
We got the fire burning in the street
We got the numbers
We got the heat
We got the fire burning in the street

Summer
Like it was yesterday
You used to call my name
When I as younger
Summer
Won't you come back to me
Bring back the memory
Of where I am from

I spent all summer long
Singing everybody's song
Put a bucket at my feet
Beg for money on the street
Working every single day
Trying to find another way
But I got more bills to pay
So I think I'm gonna say

We got the numbers
We got the heat
We got the fire burning in the street

Summer
I don't know where to run
Look how far I have come
Since we first met
Summer
Where have you been my friend?
What happened to the end?
You'd never guess

Would you cover up my eyes?
And tell me that it's it fine
That I'm lucky I'm alive
Everybody's doing time
You're a raisin in the sun
A bullet in a gun
99-to-1 and there's nothing to be done

We got the numbers
We got the heat
We got the fire burning in the street

- My dad just told me- my dad just told me that he's Kanye's lawyer right now and he has a phone call with him tomorrow
- Uh, do you have any break fluid? I'll take a bottle of it. And uh, like 20 bucks on- make that 15 on 8
- What kind of gas were you thinking of?
- The cheapest gas there is

Summer
When you were cold as ice
You used to sacrifice
What I would forget
Summer
I'm living day to day
Something will come my way
Hasn't been yet

I just keep on keeping on
While the money's here and gone
Sing another song
But the words all come out wrong
I am not what I suppose
All I have to do is grow
But there's nowhere left to go
So I'm banking on this show

- Creativity is taking known elements and putting them together in different ways
