Ride with You
50 Cent feat. Joe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't know you
Don't know how you know my name
I got a reputation of police chasing
You a bitch; I let it bang
Nigga, you keep talkin'; I keep walkin'
Fuck around 'til the heat talkin'
Then it's your coffin
I don't fuck with you; you don't fuck with me (nah)
Nigga, talkin' just ain't my cup of tea (yeah)
Don't wanna shoot the shit; I'm a shoot a bitch
Don't wanna shoot the shit; I'm a shoot a bitch
I don't fuck with you, and you know it, show it
4-deep whip, stolen, rollin'
Fo'-five, I tote it, blow it
Leave your head split open, swollen
Now it's all in your noggin, poppin'
Deuce, deuce in my pocket, rockin'
Break it down, rock it, chop it, if the feds come knockin'
Drop it, Man they plottin' on my drug house
Man, I hope they don't run in before I run out (fium!)
I'm runnin' out, I don't know who to trust now
No dap, hugs, or "what's ups" now
I don't fuck around with the fuck arounds
You see me here, get the fuck from 'round me
I don't talk, texts
I don't off bets
I don't fuck with niggas ain't from the set
I'm from the projects
Surprised you ain't got robbed yet
I really don't do no conversatin', no call waitin'
I know ya'll hatin'; I'm cool with it
On probation with no patience
I hop out and act a fool with it
Fuck who did it
If you with it, then you get it
Two to your fitted
I don't fuck with none of ya'll anyway
Your funeral could be any day
Ever since I said send the Yay'
You fuck niggas been' in the way
I'm just doin' what 50 say
Puttin' a hundred rounds in the K
Buck
I don't fuck with you; you don't fuck with me (nah)
Nigga, talkin' just ain't my cup of tea (yeah)
Don't wanna shoot the shit; I'm a shoot a bitch
Don't wanna shoot the shit; I'm a shoot a bitch
My four-five, I grip it, grip it
Work chef, and I'll whip it, whip it
Four days, and I'll flip it, flip it
Front off a meal ticket, ticket
Hoes wanna come kick it, kick it
Heard a nigga will trick it, pick it
Up after we throw it, throw it
Big money, we blow it
That gangsta shit, we did it, get it
Still do; we ain't new to it
Boy, I ain't never gon' tell on me
You bitch nigga, bet you do
You talk a lot
Niggas around here don't say much
Niggas around here don't play much
Soon as shit pop, they blame us
'Cause the money ain't never go'n' change us
A lot of gun talk in the streets
But real recognize real beef
And real soldiers get the mission accomplished
Never slippin', steady grippin', killin' for nonsense
Sideline hatin', backbitin haters
Catch you in your car like them red-light cameras
Green light, what?
Green light, woo
My money cause a fuckin' Holocaust
I green-light you
I don't fuck with you; you don't fuck with me (nah)
Nigga, talkin' just ain't my cup of tea (yeah)
Don't wanna shoot the shit; I'm a shoot a bitch
Don't wanna shoot the shit; I'm a shoot a bitch
I don't fuck with you; you don't fuck with me (nah)
Nigga, talkin' just ain't my cup of tea (yeah)
Don't wanna shoot the shit; I'm a shoot a bitch
Don't wanna shoot the shit; I'm a shoot a bitch
The lyrics of this song are about the street code of conduct, where one does not talk too much or too loud, but rather let the actions speak for themselves. In the first verse, the rapper is confronting someone he does not know and does not want to talk to. His reputation precedes him, and his approach is confrontational, warning the other person about his will to use force. He does not hesitate to use physical violence to back up his words. In the second verse, the rapper is bragging about his lifestyle, where he keeps weapons readily available to protect himself and his interests. He does not trust anyone, and his response to any attack is instant and violent.
The chorus repeats the same idea: "I don't f*** with you, and you don't f*** with me." It reinforces the street code of conduct, which is the central idea of the song. The third verse takes a broader view of the situation, where the rapper is talking about the general behavior of people in the streets. He is saying that people don't talk much, don't play around, and get violent when necessary. This is the environment in which he is comfortable, and he thrives there.
Overall, the song is a typical example of gangster rap, where the lyrics glorify violence and the street life. It is not meant to be taken literally, but rather as a representation of a specific lifestyle, where survival depends on being tough and unyielding.

2024 Can't believe it's been 20 Years Since this Classic Song, Video, and Album.
"Beg for Mercy" is an Underrated ππ.
Era when 50/G-Unit had the Game on Lock π.
Banks Underrated and Buck Verse Made it Classic.
Joe is an Underrated Singer/Vocalist and he Deserves his Flowers πΉπΉ.
Miss them Times π’. Glad I Grew up this Era.
20 Years Later still Dope π₯π₯
