Ride With Me

Yo homie what's up get in my coop

Have you watched the news, give ya the latest scoop

Some real news and fake news

If I got on a nice suit, do I only spit the truth

 

Cuz I've seen money make people move

With all em G's they bound to groove

But with all em M's they bout to break and bend

Money, girls, Mercedes Benz

 

Can't see the problems through the Gucci lense

You ask why you got phony friends

Young rich guy with the trophy friends

You make promises just to make amends

 

I've lost my time, better take out the pen

I ain't catching Zs, but I'm in my Zen

Tried to stay away, but I start again

Always what I wanted, but I paused back then

 

If I miss the last shot, I'ma ball again

Hung up the phone but I call again,

Get the 9-5, and college in, I'm grinding, better keep my head up

Thicken up my skin, that's some collagen

 

Chorus:

(Yo homie what's up get in my coop

We living the news, and life is a loop

Life is a mood, I'm having a moment

Living with you, The life of two, just wanna be with you) x 2

 

Interlude:

Fake masculinity masks our utility

Melanin, fade to black, look at ethnicity

So many divides that we can see, and can't perceive

Cuz the problems lie so deep inside of we

 

Verse 2:

Take the 99 to the end of the line

We can be on Broadway have a narrow mind

People stand so tall but have no spine

Snakes in the grass, see you slither in my wine

 

Same maze, new mice

Same lies, different times

We fight, but who's fight

We in for a ride, do or die

 

Bless us, Gesundheit

See red, but ain't a bull fight

They put me down, say I don't abide

And cut my wings and say I can't fly

 

Seen the power of love through my eyes

Like Rocky when it comes to the Great Divide

They say world peace maybe a lie

But I ain't ever give up, cuz I gotta try

 

When we unified, we amplified

Be yourself, don't modify

Sometimes it's even hard to try

But never ever let that passion die

 

I got skills to make up for the rolling die

I don't gamble but I'm in it for the ride

Cuz life will throw a million dice

And if we don't stick together then we gonna pay the price

 

Chorus:

(Yo homie what's up get in my coop

We living the news, and life is a loop

Life is a mood, I'm having a moment

Living with you, The life of two, just wanna be with you) x 2

 

Verse 3:

Had to get tougher to uncover my colors

My mother very busy raising this sucker,

I began to believe and I was a runner

I used to freestyle, but now live by the buzzer

 

A feeling of love I be driven by hunger

Come out of my slumber and outta the bunker

Ballin to the bank, that my bread and my butter

Be Dunkin like Duncan, I come with the flusher

 

Not even the biggest storm can make me stutter

Take one step back, take five steps further

Ima set my own pace, I am the drummer

And if there's a storm, I'll be the thunder

 

Can't see anyone stopping me

When I believe love hits differently

Flow like water but I'm a different lee

I'ma be free like I'ma rhapsody

 

My powers used to be, my invisibility,

but now I ain't afraid, there's no stopping me

Had to dig in me, to find my dignity,

many mes, in my raps call that versatility

 

Used to be down, sad verses killin me

Dissing my enemies that lost credibility

Chill vibes when I'm with the homies smokin green

And I'll dedicate this to the my loved ones, RIP
