The Ride

[Chorus: Cortes]
Riding through the city
I’m on U Street right now (Right now)
Trying to make a mili
If I do, keep me down (Keep me)
I see it ain’t pretty
When you choose the lifestyle (When you choose)
My family be with me
I want to make them proud, yeah

[Verse 1: Eric Heron]
Working, yeah I’ve been working
To make hit songs
Yeah, it’s on purpose and now i’m certain
That I’m here to stay for real
'Cause whether I don’t make it or I make a mill
It don’t matter 'cause I feel this, imma stay the ill
List, I don't care about list or a top 5
The only music I’ve been working to top is mine

[Pre-Chorus: Cortes]
Yeah, and that’s the ride (Yuh)
And that’s the ride (Ride)
That’s the ride (Yeah)
Yeah, that’s the ride (That's the ride)
Yeah, that’s the ride (Yeah)
And that’s the ride
That’s the ride, just passing by yeah

[Chorus: Cortes]
Riding through the city
I’m on U Street right now (Right now)
Trying to make a mili
If I do, keep me down (Keep me)
I see it ain’t pretty
When you choose the lifestyle (When you choose)
My family be with me
I want to make them proud, yeah

[Verse 2: Eric Heron]
I don’t need to be rich, don’t need to ball out
I just wanna give my all 'til I’m all out
Put my heart and soul into the music
That how it started, I know that I can do this
Gimme like 5 years imma be trill
My blood, my tears, enemies still
Tryna bring me down, it ain't work tho'
I ain't make it yet, I’m on the verge tho'
Talented when I’m spitting
I’m balanced, no vertigo
I’m here to murder the track back like Tyler Burden
'Cause I’m currently navigating my way through this fight club
That’s what I call life and I might just
Have it all figured out once I trust
Myself, clever when the mic’s held
In my hand I can only imagine
Patching patterns and the rhyme scheme
With my dreams of rapping
Lastly, I got some final points to get across
You can never find you 'til you get lost
You can never make moves if you ain't a boss
And everything you choose comes with a cost
Yeah, you gotta pay the price to live right
Best advice I ever got was give time
I gave mine I’m finally on the rise
So when I’m 85 I'll look back on the ride (Imma look back on the ride)

[Pre-Chorus: Cortes]
Yeah, and that’s the ride (Yuh)
And that’s the ride (Ride)
That’s the ride (Yeah)
Yeah, that’s the ride (That's the ride)
Yeah, that’s the ride (Yeah)
And that’s the ride
That’s the ride, just passing by yeah

[Chorus: Cortes]
Riding through the city
I’m on U Street right now (Right now)
Trying to make a mili
If I do, keep me down (Keep me)
I see it ain’t pretty
When you choose the lifestyle (When you choose)
My family be with me
I want to make them proud, yeah
