Lyrics
[Intro]
We make that music they can ride to, ride to
We make that music they get high to, high to
That music they can ride to, ride to
We make that music they get high to, high to
[Chorus]
This one of them songs you put on
Turn the radio up and just ride
This one of them songs you put on
Roll around and just clear your mind
This one of them songs you put on
Turn the radio up and just drive
This one of them songs you put on
Roll around and just clear your mind
[Verse 1]
I'm ridin' round just reflectin' on my lifetime
Focused but it's hard to stay inside of these white lines
I'm starin' out the window tryin' to get a clear view
But it's so hard not to look in the rear view
It's not what we get but what we give in the end
And in the end, I just hope God will forgive me for sins
I know God is all-knowin', he sees past my plans
But I treat him like a man whose last name's "Damn"
Lord forgive me for that, I've made my share of mistakes
But some days, I don't know If I'ma have what it takes
If I make what it takes just to shake what I bake
It's hard when I feel my heart is saturated with hate
Out the gates, I'ma wait to see if I'm on the scroll
But in the end, I know really only God knows
My nightmares have me layin' dead from some foolery
My best friend's chokin' up, tryin' to do my eulogy
[Chorus]
This one of them songs you put on
Turn the radio up and just ride
This one of them songs you put on
Roll around and just clear your mind
This one of them songs you put on
Turn the radio up and just drive
This one of them songs you put on
Roll around and just clear your mind
[Verse 2]
The road I came down was a bumpy one
State troopers everywhere, any one could be the one
To set me on the side of the road and I get mirandized
Cuffed, indicted and then, ultimately tried
My people tried, but I was incorrigible
The world was rough, but your boy was durable
No record label could stablilze the self-destruction
I was putting myself through, how can I help you
When I can't help me, God, please give me direction
I feel like I'ma go off because of my head, so lost
Inhalin' the purp while I'm doin' ninety in the slow lane
I blow it in the police face after the high speed chase
Feelin' crazier than a motherfucker, floatin'
Stopped at Waffle House 'cause that's the only thing open
Ate, paid and I'm headed for the door when a dude says
"Hey, your music did a whole lot for me, boy", uh
[Chorus]
This one of them songs you put on
Turn the radio up and just ride
This one of them songs you put on
Roll around and just clear your mind
This one of them songs you put on
Turn the radio up and just drive
This one of them songs you put on
Roll around and just clear your mind
[Verse 3]
Back on the freeway, or should I say the interstate?
Blowin' on that other kush, thinkin' bout the way it was
The ones of us that couldn't take it, ones of us that didn't make it
Medics cut they clothes off, dead in the street, naked
Hated but at the same time loved
Draw first blood when push comes to shove
Made a new life, improved with what I had
And I'm determined to do more good than bad
Me too, I really wanna change and I can say that honestly
But it's hard to when I feel my past is hauntin' me
A young man with the soul of an old dude
I'm not afraid to die, Lord, but I don't want to
I think back to all the stupid stuff that I did
Stood up in the court room and said, "Fuckin' pigs"
As a teenager, used to put coke on the blunts
Man, I quit drivin', Lord, take over this truck
[Chorus]
This one of them songs you put on
Turn the radio up and just ride
This one of them songs you put on
Roll around and just clear your mind
This one of them songs you put on
Turn the radio up and just drive
This one of them songs you put on
Roll around and just clear your mind
