Here For the Ride

[Verse]
I been drifting out of conscious
Drop a real song just to mask all the nonsense
Fearing the consensus, so I'm being extra cautious
Thinking out of boxes, making me feel nauseous
I just wanna make a promise that there's other options
My memories stay haunted of the ghosts that I've grown fondest of
You hate talking truth, but I want honest love
Punchlines ain't hittin', need a boxing glove
I've been stuck, so I sit here and wait
Vivid thoughts of the date, not with a girl, I wasn't looking for a mate
But back about eight years ago
Watchin' my favorite show, little did I know
I'd learn a new word, that word's 'woe'
Because, soon, I would grow up
With one less idol by my side, one less person in my life
One less file to my guide, one less drive to my strides
The life gone out those eyes, and I truly despise
That lost went the fight (Yeah, lost went the fight)
Take a man's life, ain't that a crime?
I just can't describe how I felt at that time
Too young to even feel hurt inside
But don't worry, it'd come back to me in time
For me to decide, that's what happens in life
God gave me advice, said my future is bright
At least that's what He implied

[Outro]
So I sat in my bed, soaked with the cries
But glad I'm alive
Parents and brother, yeah, they're right by my side
My best friend watchin', he's here for the ride
Yeah
Here for the ride, yeah
He's here for the ride
