Double Time
Cal Scruby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ridin' round
Window down

Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(Doin' fifty in a twenty five passin' double time)
Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(Pickin' up the speed I come alive when I run the light)
Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(Doin' fifty in a twenty five passin' double time)
Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(I've been dyin' to see all of my people on the other side)

Summer days I'm grindin'
Summer nights I'm drivin'
Hit the road with somethin' rolled
Pack of loud that siren (whoop)
Hopefully when you burn it
There ain't no police till u-turn it
Cause I ran a red light got a headlight out
And I'm getting head right now aww man I'm faded
Swerving that's my turn and I just missed it
Listenin' to Mercy but sadistic with that stickshift
Tryna go from being broke to being Mr.Fix-it
Cup half full of Jack and Coke I'm feelin' optimistic

I'm ridin' round, ridin' round, ridin' round
My time is runnin' out, I'm coming down
I'm ridin' ridin' ridin' round
Everything I love is in the ground

Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(Doin' fifty in a twenty five passin' double time)
Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(Pickin' up the speed I come alive when I run the light)
Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(Doin' fifty in a twenty five passin' double time)
Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(I've been dyin' to see all of my people on the other side)

I'm thinkin' bout all of my habits
And these women that I lied to
While I'm steady drinkin'
Heavy takin' pills I'm not prescribed to
I got ketel one in my soda
Cali bud in my swisher
Slowing down but I'm speeding
Got that adderall in my system
I just go, that green light
I swerve left I lean right
Got percocet and codeine on deck
And I know something don't seem right
I still don't got nowhere to go
Still don't got no place to be
All I got's a full tank
A full drink, an eighth o' weed and I'm

I'm ridin' round, ridin' round, ridin' round
Our time is runnin' out, I'm coming down
I'm ridin' ridin' ridin' round
Everything I love is in the ground

Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(Doin' fifty in a twenty five passin' double time)
Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(Pickin' up the speed I come alive when I run the light)
Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(Doin' fifty in a twenty five passin' double time)
Ridin' round got the window down got the music loud
(I've been dyin' to see all of my people on the other side)

I took one too many now I don't feel like myself
I look in the mirror I step back as someone else




Who's that? Who's that? I thought I know that
What's wrong with me, with me, with me

I just go, that green light
Going through a green traffic light without hesitation


Got percocet and codeine on deck
Having prescription painkillers readily available


I took one too many now I don't feel like myself
Overdosing on drugs and feeling out of touch with his own identity


I look in the mirror I step back as someone else
Feeling like a different person due to drug use


Who's that? Who's that? I thought I know that
Feeling confused by his own reflection


What's wrong with me, with me, with me
Questioning his own mental state

The Correct Lyrics:

Summer days im grinding, summer nights im driving
Hit the road with something rolled, packing loud the siren woop
Hopefully when you burn it, there aint no police to u-turn it
Cause I run a red light, Got a headlight out, And im getting head right now
Man im faded, swerving
Thats my turn and I just missed it
Im listening to mercy but sadistic with that stick shift
Im tryna go from being broke to being mr. fix it
And my cup half full of jack and coke, im feeling optimistic


Thinking bout all of my habits, and these women that I lie to,
while i'm steady drinking heavy, taking pills i'm not prescribed to.
I got kettle one in my soda, Cali bud in my swisher,
Im slowing down but im speeding, got that Aderall in my system.
I just go, that green light, I swerve left and I lean right,
I got Percocet and Codeine on deck, And I know something don't seem right,
But I don't got nowhere to go, 
Cause I ain't got no place to be,
All I got is a full tank, a full drank,
an eighth of weed.
