Written by ill Nicky and Tre Aces
Intro (ill Nicky)
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
You should know
I left my heart home tonight
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
Cuz I know
Ain’t no love outside
Hook (ill Nicky and Tre Aces)
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
You should know
I left my heart home tonight
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
Cuz I know
Ain’t no love outside
Verse 1 (ill Nicky)
Take your silence as a sign, see you later
All this dying ain’t no lie, we need a prayer
Maybe ya’ll will come around when it’s over baby
Ain’t no love, ain’t no love, fuck it, it’s overrated
I was a kid but it’s not over, I’m still growing up
Took it all, I need some more, but it’s still not enough
I gave up hope just to feel like I could fly
Killed my heart just so I could feel alive
Hook (ill Nicky and Tre Aces)
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
You should know
I left my heart home tonight
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
Cuz I know
Ain’t no love outside
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
You should know
I left my heart home tonight
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
Cuz I know
Ain’t no love outside
Verse 2 (Tre Aces)
I’m seeing so many true colors showing out lately
Seems like the whole world done gone crazy
Who’s gonna save everyone when everyone needs saving?
I can’t trust anyone, cuz everybody be fake, yeah
Get the fuck outta my face, yeah
Green grass fulla snakes, yeah
How they slide is a scary sight
Shit, it’s traumatizing my days, yeah
But every day that I pray
I know, that it’ll be ok
Even though..

Cuz I know
Ain’t no love outside
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
You should know
I left my heart home tonight
It’s a cruel
Cruel summer
Cuz I know
Ain’t no love outside
