“Heat of the Summer” both lyrically and instrumentally constructs the reserved and afflicted version of an upbeat beach song. The song addresses feeling hopeless and stuck in one’s own mess. Meanwhile, its chorus refers to retreating to the summer and drug use, amidst these distressing problems.

[Intro]
(Listen now f—)
[Verse 1]
No one can take me out of this mess
I do it to myself
I lost my phone, my keys, what else?
The acid doesn't help
I'm paranoid as hell and I wanna
Go home but there's no place to run
[Chorus]
Feel like it's been forever
Since I had my shit together
I just do what I wanna
In the heat of the summer
If I could roll up another
Baby, I could see in technicolor
I just do what I gotta
In the heat of the summer
In the heat of the summer!
[Verse 2]
I've got to figure something out
But I don't know where to start
I found my keys under the couch
But I'm scared of going out
Having all these doubts and I'd rather
Stay home 'cause there's no place to run
[Chorus]
Feel like it's been forever
Since I had my shit together
I just do what I wanna
In the heat of the summer
If I could roll up another
Baby, I could see in technicolor
I just do what I gotta
In the heat of the summer
[Bridge]
I'll be wasting time
In the sunshine
I'll be flying high
In the summer time
[Chorus]
Feel like it's been forever
Since I had my shit together
I just do what I wanna
In the heat of the summer
If I could roll up another
Baby, I could see in technicolor
I just do what I gotta
In the heat of the summer
In the heat of the summer

“We hide behind our illusions, and at the end of a sultry summer, our mirages sparkle into a new season. We post images of exotic vacations, timed theaters of spontaneity, swans of perfection bronzed on white sand beaches. It’s because we want to show how we wish to see ourselves in the mirror; how...
