[Intro]
[Chorus]
Hop in the ride, (Hop in the ride)
Down 105, (Down 105)
I don't got ties, (I don't got ties)
I gotta rise, (I gotta rise)
I want this whole thing, (Whole thing)
Not just a slice, (Not just a slice)
Them don't know things, (Yeah, yeah)
They tellin' lies, (They tellin' lies)
Hop in the ride, (Hop in the ride)
Down 105, (Down 105)
I don't got ties, (I don't got ties)
I gotta rise, (I gotta rise)
I want the whole thing, (Whole thing)
Not just a slice, (Not just a slice)
Them don't know things
They tellin' lies, (Aye)
[Verse 1]
This ain't a lie
Grip on the game like its tied, (Yeah, yeah)
Rollin' the dice
Living like I'm gonna die
Make me incited
Like Baka here I don't play nice
I got the bag
I feel like I'm drippin in ice
Made for this life
Swear I'm still paying the price
I'm tired of being polite
Making them eat they advice
Moving precise
This like a season of vice
I'm in the Bronx
We known to bring in the spice
Bodies still dropping that's regular
Us bringing profit that's regular
We gotta stand for our culture
Niggas be jockin that's regular
They say I'm cocky
I think they fearing the confidence
I feel like I'm Rocky
They don't want deal with the consequence
[Chorus]
Hop in the ride, (Hop in the ride)
Down 105, (Down 105)
I don't got ties, (I don't got ties)
I gotta rise, (I gotta rise)
I want this whole thing, (Whole thing)
Not just a slice, (Not just a slice)
Them don't know things, (Yeah, yeah)
They tellin' lies, (They tellin' lies)
Hop in the ride, (Hop in the ride)
Down 105, (Down 105)
I don't got ties, (I don't got ties)
I gotta rise, (I gotta rise)
I want the whole thing, (Whole thing)
Not just a slice
Them don't know things, (Them don't know)
They tellin' lies, (Aye)
[Verse 2]
It ain't for show
I'm on the go
Stay in the know
Make it up close
All of my goals
They reinforced
Feel like I'm chose
None of them come even close
Got it on ropes
Them run the game is a hoax
I been a boss
All of my life
That shit fact
I built myself
I wrote it all
This ain't a cap
They wanna know
How I got hot
What did I lack
I told em all
Just be ya self
Keep it a stack
Every record I go levels up
This ain't even close to where I'm going
Look at all the places that I've gone
Every stop I grew inside my zone
NYC forever call it home
Pray to god the family stayin on
Working long hours every morning
Dreamt a vision clear of where I'm going
[Chorus]
Hop in the ride, (Hop in the ride)
Down 105, (Down 105)
I don't got ties, (I don't got ties)
I gotta rise, (I gotta rise)
I want this whole thing, (Whole thing)
Not just a slice, (Not just a slice)
Them don't know things, (Yeah, yeah)
They tellin' lies, (They tellin' lies)
Hop in the ride, (Hop in the ride)
Down 105, (Down 105)
I don't got ties, (I don't got ties)
I gotta rise, (I gotta rise)
I want the whole thing, (Whole thing)
Not just a slice
Them don't know things, (Them don't know)
They tellin' lies, (Aye)
