Taking a Ride Lyrics by Manic

Manic: The Album

2021

[Verse]
I never thought about the person I'd grow up to be
What I am today is not what I expected I would see
I plan to take over the world like a monopoly
But in the meantime, I got your girl crawling on top of me

My own philosophy has taught me what I ought to be
And I am constantly reminded this is where I fought to be
Fuck all these tectonics there is not a single fault in me
Nothing that you say to me could ever fucking bother me

I need my father and he needs me too
If we didn't have each other I know wе'd be screwed
'Causе my mother passed away, think about her every day
He cries into my shoulder and I don't know what to say

But I know that it's okay, together we can find the way
I know how much it helps to just sit down and start to conversate
Crack open a beer and dry your hands from all the condensate
Promise me you'll spend time with your loved ones while it's not too late

Sometimes I contemplate, what's the value of my life
Is it worth to go through all this pain to be alive
My daily mood will always change the choice that I decide
But I can't just change my mind, no I cannot revive

I made a promise to myself I'd make it to the sky
That's something I could never do if I choose suicide
I have my ups and downs but I follow a trend
When I think I'm at the bottom I just start to call up all of my friends

[Hook]
All of my friends and me are taking a ride
Give a fuck if I die, if I don't make it I tried
All of my friends and me are taking a ride
We just taking our time, we gonna make it alive

All of my friends and me are taking a ride
Give a fuck if I die, if I don't make it I tried
All of my friends and me are taking a ride
We just taking our time, we gonna make it alive

[Bridge: Stan Lee]
The one thing I can't understand, I can't grasp my mind around
I can't imagine nothingness lasting forever

[Verse]
An irreversible mistake, one time is all it takes
To fuck up all the dreams you want to live while you're awake, I'm a
I'm alive and I cherish what I can
I learn from my mistakes and then become a better man

I put everything I can into everything I do
The effort that I give is what's dividing me and you
Do you know the shit I been through? You don't have a fucking clue
I'll snap your neck so you can have a full 360 view

And I always keep it going, nah I always keep it flowing
Never knowing what's ahead of me my future never showing, but I'm
Making headlines, take a sip and celebrate, I'm
Racing deadlines, floor it and accelerate, I

Never slow down, shit's about to go down
It's me against the world and I'm not scared of a showdown
And you clowns run your mouths but I will never touch the ground
I love to hear you cry I'll make a sample from the sound

It doesn't matter if you're with me or against me
Everything you ever make is not gonna impress me
I'm going to be the best alive until the end
And when I make I'll be sure to take care, of all of my friends

[Hook]
All of my friends and me are taking a ride
Give a fuck if I die, if I don't make it I tried
All of my friends and me are taking a ride
We just taking our time, we gonna make it alive

All of my friends and me are taking a ride
Give a fuck if I die, if I don't make it I tried
All of my friends and me are taking a ride
We just taking our time, we gonna make it alive
