“Cold Summers” serves as the third track to Earl Sweatshirt’s third studio album, Some Rap Songs. The track contains a sample from the song “Road Man (Mystic)” by Mighty Flames.
The track is produced by RandomBlackDude—the producer alter-ego of Earl Sweatshirt—and on the song’s sole verse, Earl man...
[Intro]
I'm as stiff as rock man. Come along the—
We roam tundras
[Verse]
The boy been gone a few summers too long from road runnin'
Trunk full of old hunnids
Of course my old lover was scorned, we grow from it
Don't tell me they don't hunt us for sport, I chose substances
No cuddles, the bases is all covered
Niggas come in the door and smoke somethin'
Choke up on the slugger from home run-ins
Nigga it's on, chest thump, his head thump on the floor
We pressed up on the boy, no more bluffin'
Cold summers, don't tussle with strangers
Some of those keep one in the chamber
Three spliffs had my wing tips clipped, I was stuck in a hangar, nigga
Muffle my pain and muzzle my brain up
Really, I'm just makin' sure my promise is kept
Chuck a deuce if you know it's the end
Kept the truth in my palm and my chest
See it through, keep a noose hangin' off of my neck
We got the juice, niggas corny as shit
We on the loose, niggas know what it is
We makin' moves, niggas corny as shit
We got the juice, niggas know what it is
Yeah
[Outro]
It is night and like the others I clean my weapons
It is all so familiar
Cold Summers was written by Jimmy Stormy & Emmanuel Baloka & Willy N’For & Earl Sweatshirt & RandomBlackDude.
Cold Summers was produced by RandomBlackDude.
Earl Sweatshirt released Cold Summers on Fri Nov 30 2018.
The track’s title juxtaposes “cold” and “summer” as contrasts to each other, and Earl metaphorically combines a positive word with a negative adjective to describe the effects of a “cold summer."
Additionally, Earl might have had a cold summer himself this year as he would’ve been indoors recording...
