After releasing a series of moderately successful mixtapes between 2010 and 2011, Future signed a major label deal with Epic Records and fellow American rapper Rocko's A1 Recordings, which helped launch his own label imprint Freebandz. Future subsequently began working on his debut studio album "Pluto," and in April 2012 released the album to positive reviews. The album spawned five singles, all of which charted on the Billboard Hot 100. The album was later re-released in November, as "Pluto 3D." His second studio album "Honest," was released on April 22, 2014, and is also performing with his group Freeband Gang. He released his highly anticipated third studio album, "DS2," on July 16, 2015. The Atlanta rapper also released several mixtapes during 2015, "Beast Mode" in January, "56 Nights" in March, and "What a Time to Be Alive (with Drake)" in September. Future released "Purple Reign" in January 2016. The 13-track mixtape was executive produced by Metro Boomin and DJ Esco, with additional production from Southside, Zaytoven, and more.
Rider
Future Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm lookin' for a bitch
That'll stay down for a nigga through thick and thin
Would you ride for yo nigga
That's all I wanna know
Would you die for yo nigga (Yea!)
Thats all I wanna know
I'm lookin' for a rider, a rider, a rider
Got a bankroll
Dubbs I can letcha blow it right now uh? huh?
If everythang fell would run run through the rain, shine, thunderstorms
Would you fuck with the kid where I'm from
Gotta hold my bong, hold my gun
When days get tight and I come in sweaty,
Would you kiss all over me with yo tongue
Would you ride for the kid, would you lie for the kid?
Death before dishonour
When I'm on the road doin' shows from Mississippi all the way to Hong Kong
And we made the bond that's ways beyond Louis Vuitton Louis Vuitton,
don't worry bout the money, the money gone come (Racks!)
I just need to know these two questions
Would you ride for yo nigga
That's all I wanna know
Would you die for yo nigga (Yea!)
Thats all I wanna know
I'm lookin' for a rider, a rider, a rider
I'm lookin' for a rider, a rider, a rider
If some things on my mind I need to get off
Can I come to you?
When I need to talk
If I ever get lost, can you help me find my way back to my vault
Would you cherish yo kid like you never had did
Could you love me? Could you love my kids?
Can you be there for me like you never had been
Like any relationship you ever been in
We make a connection that's full of affection
Can you hold me down, knowin' my profession
Will you wait for me patiently, tastefully
Will your loyalty lead to royalty
Can you answer these two questions please
Would you ride for yo nigga
That's all I wanna know
Would you die for yo nigga (Yea!)
Thats all I wanna know
I'm lookin' for a rider, a rider, a rider
I'm lookin' for a rider, a rider, a rider
Take you on the town, Baby every thangs on me
First I'ma pick you up in the red rauri
Baby its yo night you can have whateva you like
Bet you ain't had a bitch thats gone treat you right
Bitch thats gone stay down
Bitch thats gone stay round
Bitch that'll hold dem pounds.. If twelve pull up right now
I'm in love witchu
Baby its the truth
Baby its the truth
Would you ride for yo nigga (Alright, alright)
That's all I wanna know
Would you die for yo nigga
That's all I wanna know
I'm lookin' for a rider, a rider, a rider
I'm lookin' for a rider, a rider, a rider (Alright, Alright)
That's all I wanna know!
The lyrics of Future's song Rider speaks of the rapper's search for a loyal and devoted partner, someone who would be there for him through thick and thin, even in the face of danger or adversity. The chorus highlights the central questions that the artist asks his potential lover: "Would you ride for yo nigga? That's all I wanna know. Would you die for yo nigga? That's all I wanna know. I'm looking for a rider."
Throughout the song, Future seems to place a great emphasis on loyalty and dedication, asking if his partner would be willing to "hold [his] bong, hold [his] gun," or "run through the rain, shine, thunderstorms" with him. He also mentions the challenges of his profession, asking if his partner would be able to wait patiently for him and hold him down in the face of criticism or misunderstandings.
In general, Rider is a song about the search for true love and companionship in a world that often seems hollow and superficial. It is a song about the need for someone to stand by your side through life's ups and downs, and the desire to find that special someone who will be your "rider" for life.
