The Ride Lyrics by Michael Calvillo

2017

[Hook]
Real talk, tell me if it's true
I'm in the game but I never wanna lose
When I'm running full speed
All I wanna do is cruise
Cruise
All I wanna do is cruise
[Verse 1: Fresh Micks]
It was back way in 07
I thought that I would try
I wrote the verses and nothing could compromise the rhymes
Found that Mixcraft
A headset mic
Knew it was time
I was trynna be someone I couldn't fit in shoe size
Seems like everything we did was for the love of it
Must've meant that if you tried hard no one else could fuck with it
I would pray for this moment but not believe
But this life can take away words if you don't take steps back to breathe
And well, I took it rarely
Life and stress come unfairly
If time and money can heal all then why do we live on "barely's"
Questions half of the world wouldn't ever mention
I'm guessing that we all fucked but that's really just my suggestion
I wrote some verses, some poems, all would hear, and there
Never shared
Verses prepared
Never won but would never care
It's true
I'm trynna speak to the ones who are in their youth
The best way to look at the world is to see it through your own point of view
And that's real
[Hook]
Real talk, tell me if it's true
I'm in the game but I never wanna lose
When I'm running full speed
All I wanna do is cruise
Cruise
All I wanna do is cruise
And I love the ride
But this tide is so high
But who give a fuck? (x2)
[Verse 2]
{Fresh Micks}
I mean it, people change and I seen it
Coming from where you are getting to a place
Don't forsee it
{Pryde}
Couple bottles of Mo'
Some bitches over the phone
Came to scope and set the crib cause we one our way up
You ever thought quitting as cool as it is and crying
At my loneliest hours but still man this the time
To prove everyone independence prevails
Man I put so much work into females and they fuck me over
So I turn into this dick that you see
Ain't no rest for the grind homie that shit's for the weak
And all my peers are at parties just instagramming at the club
While we trynna map our lives for the rest of the week
Fuck that
We're planning for our future endeavors
And blowing money on these threads cause this shit ain't forever
Money be the motive
It's the thing I gotta get first
And I ain't gotta lie
I'm doing this for the ride, wassup?
[Hook]
Real talk, tell me if it's true
I'm in the game but I never wanna lose
When I'm running full speed
All I wanna do is cruise
Cruise
All I wanna do is cruise
And I love the ride
But this tide is so high
But who give a fuck? (x3)
[Bridge]
I just want to cruise
Tide's too high to lose
[Instrumental Refrain]
[Verse 3]
5 in the mornin, clock is booming in my ear
Looking near
Stare at the wall and my visions all dissapear
Seen a flash of your face within all my dreams
So it seems
I'm in a position to figure out what it means
I mean
We all like drama
And we all wanna see it
But who was there when your drama was heading up to the cieling
A better person than me
To this day I do still believe it
You taught me just how to ride
Now this ride is my only heathen
[Verse 4]
Running through paper
If you ain't fuck with me, cool
I'm bout to stunt on you later
G wagons through your neighborhood
Like bitch, we the business
I know my worth, and girl I'm perfect
This the shit you be missing
This is magic shit
Baby we need to practice this
Moet is holy, we bath in it
Bible passages
From rappers who was flossin, they taught us how to shine
And they call this game life
We calling this shit the ride
And Michael and I covered Gambino's song on the net
Month's later I'm with Donald backstage before his set
You never what shit will happen when you live with no regrets
And you grind till you die, you doing this for the ride
Wassup?
Started this shit up online
My show prices bout 5, now wassup?
Got the city by my side
We doing it for the ride, wassup
[Hook]
Real talk, tell me if it's true
I'm in the game but I never wanna lose
When I'm running full speed
All I wanna do is cruise
Cruise
All I wanna do is cruise
And I love the ride
But this tide is so high
But who give a fuck?
