Witt Lowry The Ride Lyrics

[Verse 1: Witt Lowry]
They said don't get on this ride if you ain't tall enough
I think that always bothered us
The box they tried to put us in, I think it's where it started
They never want to see us win, but they can't fuck with all of us
They never want to hear us out, but now it's "Will you follow us?"
Damn, they try to tell me who I am, y'all don't know yet?
These labels in my email, they beg I suffer a slow death
I did this all with no cheque and no cosign
Last of my kind, I bring the life, the life I see in my mind
Back to the basement, I'm practically begging y'all to just listen
They took their shots and they're missing
Now who are you kidding
Kissing, Listening to a girl who couldn't handle my vision

[Pre-Chorus: Witt Lowry]
That's back when I was selling burgers from a stand for a living
Was barely living, feeling bad for whoever can't tell the difference
They're saying they wish you well
But to see you fail, they're wishing
The people, they need a voice
So I'll never fail my mission
The ride, I pay for admission
This coast is closer to vivid, so ride

[Chorus: Jared Evan]
Don't stop the ride
Cause we'll survive
Put fear aside
Don't stop the ride
Don't stop the ride
Cause we'll survive
Put fear aside
Don't stop the ride
Ride, ride, ride
Don't stop the ride

[Verse 2: Witt Lowry]
They said don't get on this ride, cause you can't handle it
They're praying I abandon this
I'm taking out you bandits, a bazooka and a canon bitch
I manifest while everyone around us smoking cannabis
Simple minded and lazy will never become a fan of his
Follow trends, I will never
Don't mean to diss, I'm just better
I'll never settle for good, because great is oh so much better
Remember they called me stupid, said I'll never sell an album
I told 'em, I'll spill my soul and let the world decide the outcome
So how come I thought the college route was "Make a difference."?
Thirty-thousand every year and that was only just beginning
I see my fucking friends sit at a desk, they think they're winning

[Pre-Chorus: Witt Lowry]
Back when I was selling burgers from a stand for a living
Was barely living, feeling bad for whoever can't tell the difference
They're saying they wish you well
But to see you fail, they're wishing
The people, they need a voice
So I'll never fail my mission
The ride, I pay for admission
This coast is closer to vivid, so ride

[Chorus: Jared Evan]
Don't stop the ride
Cause we'll survive
Put fear aside
Don't stop the ride
Don't stop the ride
Cause we'll survive
Put fear aside
Don't stop the ride
Ride, ride, ride
Don't stop the ride

[Verse 3: Witt Lowry]
They said don't get on this ride, I told 'em "Fuck off."
This ain't my chance to make it
It's ninety-nine percent, you're one off
And all I'm hearing now are songs about coke and guns
I don't fucking get it, but y'all don't want to stand
The man has the most sinister message, suppression
My friends a teacher, she had me come teach a lesson
A class of fourth graders, their favorite song, you can guess it
They're yelling "Trap Queen" and "CoCo", don't know the message
And y'all wonder why I'm angry, well our youth has been infected
Getting pregnant, glorifying a life that's barely worth living
Don't put me in a box, no I'll never fit your description
They say what makes you different, you paint the picture, so vivid

[Pre-Chorus: Witt Lowry]
Back when I was selling burgers from a stand for a living
Was barely living, feeling bad for whoever can't tell the difference
They're saying they wish you well
But to see you fail, they're wishing
The people, they need a voice
So I'll never fail my mission
The ride, I pay for admission
This coast is closer to vivid, so ride

[Chorus: Jared Evan]
Don't stop the ride
Cause we'll survive
Put fear aside
Don't stop the ride
Don't stop the ride
Cause we'll survive
Put fear aside
Don't stop the ride
Ride, ride, ride
Don't stop the ride
