Freeride
Kid Wave Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

It’s a long way baby and I’m not there
It’s a long way, take me there
Going out somehow just spending time
All I do is have some fun

Take me with you
Grab my hand
I close my eyes

Just take me there

Freeride
All in my mind
Freeride
All in my mind

I’m still speeding
’Cause I’m quite young
Stars ain’t falling where I run
When I get older
Will I care?
Always longing out of here

Take me with you
Grab my hand
I close my eyes
Just take me there

Freeride
All in my mind
Freeride
All in my mind

Freeride
All in my mind

Freeride
All in my mind

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Kid Wave's song "Freeride" express the desire to escape from reality and the monotony of everyday life into a carefree existence. The first stanza speaks to the feeling of being far away from where they want to be and the longing to be taken there. The second stanza seems to contrast this feeling with the energy of youth and the urgency to live in the moment. The questions "When I get older, will I care?" and "Always longing out of here" seem to suggest that the singer knows the freedom they seek may not be sustainable but chooses to pursue it anyway.

The chorus of the song, "Freeride, all in my mind", echoes this idea of the freedom being a state of mind rather than a physical reality. It is an escape from the mundane, and represents a desire for a life that is less structured and predictable.

Overall, the song is about the excitement of feeling free and alive in the moment, even if it may not last forever. It is a celebration of living in the present rather than worrying about the future. The driving guitars and upbeat melody add to this sense of excitement and energy.
