let it ride - josiah williams lyrics
[verse 1]
i am ready, i am ready, it’s time to take it over
they say that time is of the essence
i’m like what’s the hold up?
i don’t wanna hear “gimme a second”
i’m ready, i get on the record and wreck it
i’mma give ’em that music they mess with
so that they get the message
hop in the car like, lemme get the bars right
better turn it up, you don’t wanna miss this moment
doin’ this for the 309, for the folks at home
and the ones that’s homeless
i’mma let these words talk
and then back it up with that music
’cause i make time for this rap life
while they out here making excuses
i say let that music ride!
y’all know that’s the motto!
and we just throw our hands all up and down
johnny bravo!
i say let that music ride!
turn it up when they play this!
and they say we can’t be great
but my city’s the greatest!
i’m on a roll, hop on the wave!
y’all wanna go?
lemme show you the way!
i wanna get loud on the east side
and then take it over to the bay!
we are the young, we are the next
we are the cause, and the effect
living the high life, but the right way
and until i get my respect, i let it ride!
[chorus]
i like my music playing loud
and my windows down low
and i make sure that they hear me
so i chill and drive slow
i make music for my city
i’mma do it ’till i die
and until we get respect
all we do is let it ride!
[verse 2]
my city ain’t start from the bottom
y’all just ain’t lookin’ up
they said they tried to encourage us
now i’m calling ya bluff
i’ll step up to your challenge
and i might just throw you off balance
i’ve got some words for all these kings
that try to dictate the palace
i bet it feels good now while y’all sit there
but that spot don’t last forever
cause we work hard till they notice
and they find out that we’re better
and i may not fit that prototype
but i ain’t tryna be typical, i’m an original
i’m tryna be unpredictable
i am my own individual
i say i’m livin’ a dream!
but this is just hard work at it’s finest!
i’m tryna get me a queen!
and tell her in my eyes, she the brightest
i wanna travel the world
just wit a microphone and a loud box
and spread the word where the crowds walk
and then turn up it when the crowds hot
my god!
this music! with these words, i will influence
i’ve got a talent and i’m gonna use it
with these b-ss drops they producin’
we are the young, we are the next
we are the cause, and the effect
living the high life, but the right way
and until i get my respect, i let it ride!
[chorus]
i like my music playing loud
and my windows down low
and i make sure that they hear me
so i chill and drive slow
i make music for my city
i’mma do it ’till i die
and until we get respect
all we do is let it ride!
[verse 3]
i am ready, i am ready, it’s time to take it over
seems like n-body’s working hard
i guess i’m glad i showed up
everybody been moving the same
i’m tryna give it a change
straight up!
you can make time, or you can waste time
but them fake lines
don’t say much
i’ll can show you the realest
i know rappers who k!ll it
they just stuck under the ceiling
should be breaking out the building
we are the next
we are the cause, and the effect
living the high life, but the right way
and until we get our respect, we let it ride!
[chorus:]
i like my music playing loud
and my windows down low
and i make sure that they hear me
so i chill and drive slow
i make music for my city
i’mma do it ’till i die
and until we get respect
all we do is let it ride!
[outro]
i am ready, i am ready, it’s time to take it over
they say that time is of the essence
i’m like what’s the hold up?
i am ready, i am ready, it’s time to take it over
