Ride With Me
Tungevaag Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I promise if you ride with me
We'll find a better place to be
Babe, you know I'll ride for you
Drive all night and soak up all the city lights
I promise if you ride with me
We'll find a better place to be
Yeah, you could ride around the world with me
You know I be on some fly shit
Hero in the nighttime, I just need my sidekick
Sexy in that leather with the tight fit
Try to get between us, I'ma start a riot
Love how she roll it up (roll it up)
There ain't no room in this two-seater, you can't roll with us
It's gettin' hot up in the city but don't keep it tuck
I put that tennis on your neck, make sure you cold enough, yeah
This dark sky I know that we could make it bright
I promise if you ride with me
We'll find a better place to be
Babe, you know I'll ride for you
Drive all night and soak up all the city lights
I promise if you ride with me
We'll find a better place to be
You could ride around the world with me
Yeah, you could ride around the world with me
'Cedes, hop in that black Mercedes
I'm drifting like it's rainy, baby she strapped, safety
You catch me fallin', save me
I ball you out McGrady
Them haters plottin, waitin'
Don't ever do me shady, lookin' at
This dark sky I know that we could make it bright
I promise if you ride with me
We'll find a better place to be
Babe, you know I'll ride for you
Find a better place to be
Yeah, you could ride around the world with me
This dark sky I know that we could make it bright
I promise if you ride with me
We'll find a better place to be
You could ride around the world with me
