The Ride

I hate when

I hate when people say they feel me, man

I hate that shit

It'll be a long time before y'all feel me, if ever

For real

You won't feel me till everybody say they love you, but it's not love

And your suit is oxblood

And the girl you fucking hates you

And your friends faded off shots of

What you ordered to forget about the game that you on top of

Your famous girlfriend's ass keep getting thicker than a plot does

And when you forget her, that's when she pop up

And you got a drop but you ride around with the top up

Or get three SUVs for **** dressed like refugees

And deal with the questions about all your excessive needs

And you do dinners at French Laundry in Napa Valley

Scallops and glasses of Dolce, that shit right up your alley

Yeah, you see a girl and you ask about her

Bitches smilin' at you, it must be happy hour

They put the cloth across your lap soon as you sat down

It's feeling like you own every place you choose to be at now

Walking through airport security with your hat down

Instead of getting a pat down

They just keep on saying that they feel you, ****

Yeah

It's been too long

Been way too long

Faded too long, ooh

I've been faded too long, ooh

I've been faded too long, ooh

Why won't it stop? The ride

Why won't it stop? Ooh, the ride

You won't feel me till you want it so bad you tell yourself you're in it

And tell the world around you that your paperwork is finished

And steal your mother's debit cards so you maintain an image

And ride around in overpriced rental cars that ain't tinted

You need a minute? You got it

You know it's real when your latest nights are your greatest nights

The sun is up when you get home, that's just a way of life

Apartment 1503, some couches and paintings

When you record with two others that want the same things

Yeah, it start to feel better than home feels

And so you up there every night, you swear you gettin' close

That champagne money was for gas and phone bills

But shit, you 'bout to spend it on what matters most

You drop a couple songs in hopes that you could be the ****

And come out every night to let the city see they ****

Tellin' stories that nobody relate to

And even though they hate you

They just keep on telling you they feel you, ****

Yeah

It's been too long, man

Ooh-oh

Faded too long, ooh

I've been faded too long, ooh

I've been faded too long, ooh

Why won't it stop? The ride

Why won't it stop? Ooh, the ride

I haven't been inside Terminal 1 and 3 in so long

I'm driving right up to it now

Make sure you got your coat on

That runway can be cold especially after summer's rolled on

And all you knew is alcohol and city lights and slow songs

For four months out the year, it's got you asking, "What's good at home?"

What's good at home?

The same hoes are still at it, I shoulda known

My young **** popping M's and sippin' dirty jones

Problem children that all be repping October's Own

Brand new girl and she still growin'

Brand new titties, stitches still showin'

Yeah, and she just praying that it heals good

I'm 'bout to fuck and I'm just praying that it feels good

I really don't know much but, shit, I know a secret

They say, "Mo' money, mo problems", my ****, don't believe it

I mean, sure, there's some bills and taxes I'm still evadin'

But I blew six million on myself and I feel amazing

Young money maker, season ticket holder

Season switching over

I come through them bitches

Still scorching as if I didn't notice

You **** getting older, I see no threat in Yoda

I'm out here messing over the lives of these ****

That couldn't fuck with my freshman floater

Look at that fucking chip on your nephew's shoulder

My sophomore, I was all for it, they all saw it

My junior and senior will only get meaner

Take care, ****

I'm still faded, faded, faded (The ride)

I'm still faded, faded, faded

Why won't it stop? The ride

Why won't it stop? Ooh, the ride
