Ride On
Steve Haggerty And The Wanted Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The song "Ride On" by Steve Haggerty and The Wanted tells a story about a man who is focused on getting rich and being successful in life. He talks about flaunting his wealth by driving a red Caddy and wearing 10 karat jewelry. He is also bothered by the presence of people who are envious of his success, but he implies that he is above their petty behavior. He claims that women are only interested in him because of his status, but he is willing to indulge their desires by giving them a ride in his luxurious car. The lyrics are explicit and sexual, with references to getting oral sex in the car and having a good time while cruising around town. The song ends with the singer expressing his love for his car.
The lyrics of "Ride On" are an example of how modern rap music often glamorizes materialism, objectification of women, and excessive behavior. The song portrays a distorted sense of values, where wealth and status are the ultimate goals, and women are reduced to objects of desire. It also reveals a narcissistic and entitled worldview, where the singer sees himself as superior to others who are not as successful as him. However, the song's catchy beats and rhymes make it a popular club anthem, despite its questionable message.
