J-o-e Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 This is a song that I meant to post a while back but never got the chance to..So without any further interuption here it is...tell me what ya'll think ~~Ride Till I Die~~ Written by J-o-e I told them once, and then I told them twice On the corner slanging or just rolling the dice I’m not a gambling man but I still bet a stack I spent more than that just writing this track What’s your speciality? Come back to reality It’s cool because we don’t want to ruin your mentality I don’t understand where they all come from But the gangs shocked that Joe don’t have a gun You see I fight with my fists and if **** pops The heater drops run away from the cops They crooked but it just can’t be proven I told them once, then you better be moving Don’t like to repeat myself, Why should I? Not going to cry, I’m going to ride till I die Thug life but still trapped in that drug life Rest of my life waiting for the slug life They thought I was fake, got me so irate The reason you hate is the same he debates I can’t take this talk **** and get to shooting When New Orleans was flooded, whats wrong with looting They have a right to keep on living, keep giving But the government are cold hearted, not forgiving I keep it real in the street, As hard as I try Keep telling them man, Ride till I die… I’m a Ride Till I Die Just Look In My Eye Tear Drops, I Just Cry I’m A Ride Till I Die I’m not a gangster, and I don’t try to be But when young mothers have to cry to see Get a bit of attention because of the youth We trapped but they think that the truth Are all lies, we try but we keeping dying Answer me why does young mothers keep crying I’m down with the street as long as I can I’m a man and knows when **** hit’s the fan Family is first but what’s worse, brothers in a hearse Just because I curse? Here’s another verse. When the oil exploded right in my home town Government had to frown because he weren’t down Now who am I? Stuck in this life till I die Till I cry? They don’t listen so then I try To leave the hood but it just gives me love I might be doing wrong but only he can up above Judge me in what I do just for living Sinning because I don’t like the idea of prison I’m a ride till I die, I done already told you Pimps keep saying I done already sold you Young position drug dealers catching feelings Trying to have visions of them making millions What can we expect? See me as a reject I got a knife, so now I’m a ****ing suspect… I’m a Ride Till I Die Just Look In My Eye Tear Drops, I Just Cry I’m A Ride Till I Die I rode so slowly even my mother didn’t know me But in the hard times nobody was there to show me What’s right from wrong, so I right another song But best believe I still know that the pressures on Even though this is my second LP, what can I do? My own crew don’t like me so there’s only a few Cops coming buy to arrest us, a ****ed up system But when I flash pass cops sorry I done missed them I feel blessed but at the same time I stressed I feel obsessed but I know who would of guessed I don’t see money often, so it’s a privilege to me Crazy to see that how is Joe going to be an MC? I wish I could get the good back in the hood Maybe I should or I hope so…touch wood I know at times it seems life is just so hopeless But that’s where it hits you, when you lose focus You need to get your head up before you loose The game’s too open so there’s a game you choose Looking on the TV just seeing if there’s any news Wonder why so many of us have for the blues I seem unhappy with the **** I have to carry But how can I live if I’m on the lowest salary? But I’m a ride till I die, thug till I get blown out Up in the club raising hell, till I get thrown out So that’s the reason I got a cold look in my eye Because I’m ready man, Riding until I die… I’m a Ride Till I Die Just Look In My Eye Tear Drops, I Just Cry I’m A Ride Till I Die Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
