Ride or Die Till I'm Gone

Intro

Mama raised a straight rider

Mama raised a straight rider

Verse 1

Block been cold since the mornin

Cousin did a bid now the story still borin

I keep the steel tucked under the corduroy

Mama said pray first but I keep the boy

Went from a nothin to a somethin on the corner

Now they want a piece like a plate at the dinner

Gotta watch your back when the money get thinner

Real ones stay close and the fakes get the finger

Chorus

Ride or die till the day I'm gone

Straight thug livin since I was young

West side risin like the morning sun

Tell the world we made it from the ground we run

Ride or die till the day I'm gone

Straight thug livin since I was young

We don't fold we don't break we just carry on

Mama raised a straight rider and I ride along

Verse 2

Two kids in the backseat one dream

Three shots from the alley that changed everything

Now I move in silence like a star at day

I been through the mud never lost my way

The homies in the pen sendin letters with love

They say hold it down soldier keep your head above

I made a promise to the ones I lost

They watchin from above so I carry the torch

Chorus

Ride or die till the day I'm gone

Straight thug livin since I was young

West side risin like the morning sun

Tell the world we made it from the ground we run

Ride or die till the day I'm gone

Straight thug livin since I was young

We don't fold we don't break we just carry on

Mama raised a straight rider and I ride along

Verse 3

Shooters on the left side riders on the right

Regular folks in the middle tryna live they life

Three sides to the story three sides to the fight

But we all bleed the same in the middle of the night

I seen the trap turn a brother to a ghost

Seen a good girl lose her smile to the most

This life ain't pretty but the truth is cold

Young nigga stand tall let your story be told

Bridge

Hold on to your dreams when the world get dark

Keep a flame in your chest when they leave they mark

Every scar got a lesson every lesson got a spark

Stand up straight and make your mark

Chorus

Ride or die till the day I'm gone

Straight thug livin since I was young

West side risin like the morning sun

Tell the world we made it from the ground we run

Ride or die till the day I'm gone

Straight thug livin since I was young

We don't fold we don't break we just carry on

Mama raised a straight rider and I ride along

Verse 4

Gotta watch the ones who smile in your face

Got a knife in your back when you turn from the place

The streets talk different when the money gets low

Niggas turn they back like they ain't know you though

I been patient like water eroding the stone

Movin like a phantom never stand alone

I got love in my heart but a aim on my scope

This the life we chose so we gotta cope

Chorus

Ride or die till the day I'm gone

Straight thug livin since I was young

West side risin like the morning sun

Tell the world we made it from the ground we run

Ride or die till the day I'm gone

Straight thug livin since I was young

We don't fold we don't break we just carry on

Mama raised a straight rider and I ride along

Outro

Mama raised a straight rider

Yeah

Straight rider

Ride along
