Ride

Lyrics

[Intro] Check it out [Verse 1] Never knew a friend till I met a foe Never knew a pimp till I met a hoe Never knew pain till I met the game Never had a real team that could win the ring (uh) Never knew what a friend could do (yeah) Never knew I'd be bruised all black and blue With my back to the wall, scrap for my dogs Rap with my dogs, cat with my dogs Fly with me in the land of lust Oakland, Los Angeles Smoke up these managers Coked up from the Henny in a bag of dust But real homies never turn and run Even if a youngster don't wanna pull a gun Even if a young thug wanna meet the son We gon' rep to the death where the roots are from [Chorus] Each day's another change My homies stay the same Life feelin' strange 'Cause this world's getting so deranged Each day's another change My homies stay the same Life feelin' strange 'Cause this world's getting so deranged I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here [Verse 2] Real homies stand and struggle Whom gazing down a muzzle I know you came to hustle Grit your teeth and clench your knuckles We didn't come to fight We came to get you like You rollin' with me till we die, that's how homies ride No need for consternation Gather the congregation I'm rockin' for my nation To get that spirit raising To all my cousins and my cliques, family and folks We got a ride out to till we break up all them 100 spokes [Chorus] Each day's another change My homies stay the same Life feelin' strange 'Cause this world's getting so deranged Each day's another change My homies stay the same Life feelin' strange 'Cause this world's getting so deranged I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here [Verse 3] Never knew chill till I met with beef Never knew war till I met with peace Never knew tired till I came to rest Got a couple real homies and they all the best Never knew 'cause it's hard to watch Seen a couple of my homies die upon the block With a chroma stock, and the vultures flock And the cops on the watch for my life to stop Hard to see in the cold of night When it's cold tonight and my soul in ice Gotta pee when I'm holding tight And I hold the lights, scared of poltergeists But real homies never turn they back My homies facin' all these tracks My homies all wrapped in mat We rollin' out like Cadillac [Chorus] Each day's another change My homies stay the same Life feelin' strange 'Cause this world's getting so deranged Each day's another change My homies stay the same Life feelin' strange 'Cause this world's getting so deranged I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here I'm with my homies here, I'm with my homies here [Outro] Westside, Eastside Northside, Westside Southside, Eastside Northside, Westside
