Akira The Don, Theo Von - Summer Camp lyrics

I had a younger sister who was very ill
She was born with a rare liver disease and
She needed a liver trans-supplant
Upon her birth
And so when my mother did have free time
A lotta time my sister got the affection
Because she was ill and she got a lot more
Love and affection than
My other brother and my other sister did
I felt like
Anyhow, I was, you know, growing up and one
Thing I really loved was summertime I
I would go to YMCA summer camp

It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have fun, wanted to have fun
It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have fu-fun, summer camp
It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have fun
It was a group, group of ki –
It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have (fun) , summer camp

And at summer camp Things weren't as cliquey
Everybody was on the same page it was
We got to do fun stuff
We all, you know, rode on a bus
Together from the camp
To go to, to the, to, to the field trip

It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have fun, wanted to have fun
It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have fu-fun, summer camp
It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have fun
It was a group, group of ki –
It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have (fun) , summer camp

And I just loved that
It just wasn't as judgemental you know
My mom would drop us off there and we'd
Stay there and go to summer camp
It, there just felt like less judgment
And one day I was walking in my neighborhood
And one of the councilors from my
Summer camp drove down the street
He happened to be driving
Through my neighborhood
And he saw me and our neighborhood was poor
Man it was, you know, I think it was the
Poorest white neighborhood that
Was around us, i felt like
And then when I saw him at summer camp he
Was joking with some of the other councilors
He was making fun of where I live you know
He was making fun of the place he saw me
Run out of the apartment I ran out of
And it just at that point, like, a lot
Something inside of me just
Really kinda died some you know, like
Here was the one place where I
Really felt kind of okay
And now that place didn't feel
Okay to me anymore

It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have fun, wanted to have fun
It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have fu-fun, summer camp
It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have fun
It was a group, group of ki –
It was a group of kids in the
Summer that just wanted to have fun
Wanted to have (fun) , summer camp
