Meek Mill - The Ride lyrics

rate me

See when I do joints like this

I do it for the youngin in the ghetto

That …won’t ever hear the story

Cause he ain’t gonna make it to tell you

See you know what’s crazy

I went to court the other day, how the da say she hates me

How you gonna hate me when me and Lou just took 30 racks

And put coats on them kids back

It’s 30 degrees outside

24, how could I ask for more?

I got my dealers getting real, I’m making cash of

Stunting every chance I get because I help the poor

But every time I go to sleep I hear the…at my door

And I’m on them papers so them courts I’m going back and forth

Dealing with probation man they all said I’ll be back for sure

Mind is … you wonder why them babies running crazy

Steady clapping off, getting life before they get pussy…

Locked in cages, having fighting over cookies

… I’m happy them days ain’t never kill me

Yeah I remember, it was a hot December

Niggas dying … winter, cause them kids need them toys

Well santa clause don’t see them boys, don’t see them girls around here

There’s jack boys downstairs, no man with the big bag

Just a man with a big gap tryna take your shit back

Cause he feel the world owe him

And his daughter want a Barbie buy for Christmas

Even show her, that his love is there, no mother there

Just her little brother there…and use the drugs…

We get high to get buy, hot dogs more…

With tears drift from red eyes

Where ends don’t mean the deadline

The D.a. said she hate me but I just don’t understand

When I just rock the show in front of 50 000 fans

I think that gets racist, she prolly in the class

She take her pain out on me, but she prolly need a man

I took my mind from…we came a long way from welfare and …

Cause I’m balling, yeah, I’m balling

It’s like sometimes I always gotta let these …joints…in the streets

… last night we just came out giving 200-300 pair shoes to the schools

To the boys and girls basketball teams

How you hate me?

You hate me cause I’m doing what I’m supposed to do

And I got that money and I’m making more money than you

Well bitch you can hate me for that

Let’s get it.
