On “Summer 2020,” Jhené sings about her lovesickness amid the madness going on in the world right now, what with the COVID-19 pandemic and the new attention given to pervasive racial injustice. “Times are changing, strangers getting stranger,” she sings. “Generations faced with genocide, damn.” While Jhené grapples with the heaviness and devastation of these times, she’s reminded of her love, and seeks comfort in their closeness: “Try to make my way through pain and anger/Then I look into my baby’s eyes.”

[Chorus]
And I feel like sometimes I cry
‘Cause I feel so good to be alive
And there’s not a doubt inside my mind
That you’re still here, right here by my side, yeah
[Verse 1]
I can’t wrap my head around what’s happening
I can’t get no sleep, no peace of mind
Trying to beat the heat in summer madness
Only thoughts of you can get me by
[Chorus]
And I feel like sometimes I cry
‘Cause I feel so good to be alive
And there’s not a doubt inside my mind
That you’re still here, right here by my side
[Verse 2]
Times are changing, strangers getting stranger
Generations faced with genocide, damn
Try to make my way through pain and anger
Then I look into my baby’s eyes
[Chorus]
And I feel like sometimes I cry
‘Cause I feel so good to be alive
When I fall in line with my divine
I can see inside the sun shines more, yeah
[Outro]
I’ll take some rain with my sunshine, sunshine
I’ll take some rain with my sunshine
I’ll take some rain with my sunshine
Take it easy, simple like summertime
Take it easy, yeah
Take it easy, simple
Take it easy, yeah
Take it easy, simple, like summertime
