Keep It Cold is a hard-hitting track that shows tribe’s H-Town roots with Texan flair while simultaneously venturing into a mainstream sound. It took the rap world by storm: a lyrical sundae over cookie-dough 808s, with raw rhymes that boldly told the tale of ice cream love from the perspective of a...
[Intro: Drizzle, Yeti Froze, Dream$ickle, Scoop Dogg]
It's that rapper's delight coming in a half-gallon
You know I get that gelato when I'm feeling Italian
Hit em with the froyo flow
Get it with the cookie dough
In a float, à la mode, put it in a waffle cone!
We go hard on the beat (Ayy)
But soft serve when we eat (Uh-huh)
And if we’re getting a treat, you know we rocking rocky road when we roll down the street!
Dream$ickle, Scoop Dogg, Drizzle, Yeti Froze
We the crème de la crème, ain’t bring melty flows
I scream—you scream—but it’s time you been told
We keep our lyrics hot but our ice cream cold
[Chorus: tribe]
Keep it cold—keep it cold as ice
Keep it cold—you know we flow so nice
Keep it cold—we all sugar no spice
Frozen aisle and we wylin', cold as ice!
[Verse: Drizzle]
Fridge please—vanilla yogurt ain’t a pleaser
I'm only interested when you open up the freezer
Talking thirty-two, Farenheit; double-scoop, very nice
Walk into the creamery like "Welcome to paradise!"
Bask in the glory of these ice cream bars
Robbin' all the treats from these ice cream stores
And with 31 flavors, why you still being fickle?
Drizzle eats em all, he don't give a fudgesicle!
'Cause vanilla is a classic, like a true OG
Strawberry, flavor legendary, two of three
Add chocolate to the trio—you know I’m gonna start
Finna conquer that bowl like Neopolitan Bonaparte!
[Verse: Scoop Dogg and Dream$ickle]
I pull up to the store, then I walk inside
I’m a man with a plan, with a swagger and a stride
I’m heading to the section where the AC’s max
Scoop Dogg gonna go where the good stuff’s at (Let's go!)
All these flavors be my favorite
Samples free, you know I taste it
Come cup, cone, or dots I’m dippin'
Too much dairy? Boy you trippin'
If we talking toppings Imma stop you right there
I eat everything from caramel to gummi bears
Now sprinkles are superb and maraschinos supreme
But nothing’s ever gonna top that whipped cream!
[Chorus: tribe]
Keep it cold—keep it cold as ice
Keep it cold—you know we flow so nice
Keep it cold—we all sugar no spice
Frozen aisle and we wylin', cold as ice!
[Verse: Yeti Froze]
Cookie two steppin, it’s Yeti Froze on the beat
A connoisseur to be sure, 'cause my taste buds on fleek
Now you can talk about sherbert, you can talk about sorbet
But either way ye ain’t a match my international taste
Dondurma, kulfi, halo-halo, patbingsu
Gonna eat it, might just steal it from you if I need to
Like, “Where my frozen custard go?” Man, get a clue
It was me, Colonel Mustard in the kitchen with a spoon!
One time for the ice cold crew that I got
Two times for the cows, 'cause we owe em a lot
Three times for the cherry at the tippity-top
Fourth verse—yo Dreamy, bring the hippity-hop!
[Verse: Dream$ickle]
Alright I hop it, I hip it, I mint-chocolate-chip it
If you give me a banana you know I’m gon split it
And I tip it, cash money at the counter with the froyo
Spit it like it’s spittle, Dream$ickle with the flow, yo!
So cold—it’s like we in a snowglobe
Shake it like a milkshake, never settle for a snowcone
Mojo—I’m sensei in this dojo
I kick it with my ninjas 'cause you know I don’t go solo
And I’m loco with these vatos, at rap shows be hollerin
We all in it, and calling it wack flows intolerant
The hook is the motto, 'cause we helado muchachos
And we unbeatable, we eat it all, we keep it cold—vamos!
[Chorus: tribe and Lil Creamy]
Keep it cold—keep it cold as ice
Keep it cold—you know we flow so nice
Keep it cold—we all sugar no spice
Frozen aisle and we wylin'—Yo surprise!
[Verse: Lil Creamy]
Lil Creamy’s on the scene with a cold verse to drop
A vanilla complexion and caramel on the top
The curly-Q of my crew, I bring style to the squad
'Cause I got the chocolate sauce and I keep the fudge hot
Yo, team bring the ice and I bring the cream
Flow like it’s soft serve out the machine
Some got the heat, but I got a dream
From desserts to my verses they call me the king!
And I got a dairy queen 'cause ice cream’s my soulmate
No lines with cosigns, yeah my rhymes are homemade
Straight outta Brenham, Lil Creamy’s creations
My lickable, likeable, lyrical sensations!
[Chorus: tribe]
Keep it cold—keep it cold as ice
Keep it cold—you know we flow so nice
Keep it cold—we all sugar no spice
Frozen aisle and we wylin', cold as ice!
Keep it cold—you know we bring the cream
Keep it cold—we be that frosty team
Keep it cold—I think you know the theme
We be that ice cold crew serving up the ice cream—
Cold
[Outro: Cameron, Sam, and Hunter]
You know, actually, I like popsicles
Yo how’d you get in here?
Cameron!
