Ryde Away

[Chorus: Anthony Hamilton]

Gonna get in the car

Drive away

Drive so far

No one's gonna find me

Put my foot on the gas

Accelerate

[Verse One]

Some days I be wanting to get away from it all

To be real this game ain't all it seem to y'all

I mean I'm blessed by my good God

Haaa, that's no question

And I know my journey long

Just a life learned lesson

But the world just a mess right now, going crazy

Thankful for my single mother

Strong how she raised me

Could have gave up long time

And been lazy

But my dream strong

Hear this song I'm not complaining

Just the realization living in this world is draining

I mean I cry real tears and I got real fears

Wanna marriage and some babies

Do y'all hear me in your ears?

Discouraging, keep your courage and walk your path

Question everyday how much longer will we last?

How can you apologize for mankind?

No heart, so soul got sight, but you're the man blind

Not really seeing what he doing to the future

He lost

[Chorus: Anthony Hamilton]

[Verse Two]

Love, hate, pain all the same

Still took for granted

Need a reason that's to blame

Gone cause he loved her

Gone cause she hated him

Flipped out taken out from the pain

Who she datin him?

Its like we don't have no meaning

What we breathing for?

Birth child raised right gone now fighting for the war

Damn, enough to make you crawl up in a shell

Cry for the innocent babies in this Hell

Stuck from a fast fuck no shelter from the cold

Drugs and disease never growing to be old

Do you feel me?

Am I seeing all this by myself?

Can't trust the air I breathe

Im praying for my health

Wanna get away but

Where I'm supposed to go?

Can't escape it so I'm making songs let it flow

I said I wanna get away but

Where I'm supposed to go?

Can't escape it so I'm making songs let it flow

[Chorus: Anthony Hamilton]

[Verse Three]

Sometimes my heart hurt

Wish I could take away the pain with music

But it won't work

I guess I'm just an optimist

What's it gonna take for all of us to stand up

Put a stop to this?

Man, we in this thing together

Live and breathe together

Everybody love life

But never make it better

Everybody talk shit

But never get together

Shit, I ain't trying to preach

I ain't even teaching

There's some shit bottled up inside me

Im just speaking

Wanna get away but

Where I'm supposed to go?

Can't escape it so I'm making songs let it flow

I said I wanna get away but

Where I'm supposed to go?

Can't escape it so I'm making songs let it flow
