Lyrics
Ride it out
Ride it out - Emphasizing perseverance and facing challenges head-on.
Ride it out
-Ride it out
-Ride it out
-I got ten years right under my belt
Ten years of experience.
You got like ten months please humble yourself
Comparison of experience, advising humility.
It's Acetracks on the mic, please let me explain
Introduction of the artist, expressing a desire to explain.
I never was the type to pop off like propane
Not prone to explosive reactions, contrasting with propane.
But something, outside of me
A feeling prompting a broader perspective on relationships.
Just told me that I gotta see
-Far beyond my personal monogamy
-The blind are always led into disarray
People blindly led into confusion or disorder.
Might as well go ahead and just spit some game
Choosing to share wisdom or advice.
Too many people got matching shoes
Critiquing superficial relationships lacking depth or faith.
But got no matching faith
-Riding the same lane but not the right way
People moving together but not in the right direction.
Too many so-called "soulmates" with no soul how strange
False "soulmates" without genuine depth.
A total recipe for great pain
Warning about potential for great pain in such relationships.
I grip grain, just to make it another year
Gripping onto stability (grain) to endure.
Dating for no marriage with result in tears
Highlighting the importance of marriage for lasting happiness.
Without it, you're really playing with people's hearts
Cautioning against playing with emotions and fragile hearts.
A sensitive piece never meant to be picked apart
-What if, we run out of funds
Concerns about financial stability and the potential fading of love.
What if, times ain't really all that fun
-What if, after all these years with everything we've gone through
-We may not feel no love
-Well I don't know but I've been ready
Expressing readiness for challenges and growth as a couple.
We can only grow, oh beyond plenty
-To only think we're making history in just our twenties
-I'm gripping on this steering wheel yeah we riding steady
Metaphorically holding onto control (steering wheel) in life.
We finna ride this out
Reiteration of the determination to face challenges like a vintage Chevy, emphasizing resilience.
Like a, like a, like a
-Like a vintage Chevy
-Oh It don't matter when the times
-Get up-up or down
-It don't matter when the times get heavy
-We finna ride this out
-Like a, like a, like a
-Like a vintage Chevy
-Oh It don't matter when the times
-Get up-up or down
-It don't matter when the times get heavy
-We never needed no IG, FB, SC
Rejecting societal validation, staying true to self and beliefs.
To tell me we be poppin' like Pepsi
-Too many people try to come up and contest me
-To give me long advice so I let em' speak
-Oh Daveywavy why don't ya'll go do this and that
Dismissing unsolicited advice, focusing on a bigger picture rooted in faith.
Oh, oh, oh please, you might need to go and take a step back
-We're just tryna go off and frame a bigger picture
-Beyond personal opinion - grounded in scripture
-Plus, we praise the holy God yeah that's Elohim
Affirmation of faith in the Holy Trinity and the importance of divine love.
Father, Son, Holy Spirit, that's the Trinity
-Set before day one for all of infinity
-Checked the scriptures for a couple of validity
-You don't know God? Then you never know about true love
-It's all about the One, who really died for us
-The only good work by grace through love
-Now we a fallen couple, with our eyes above
-What if, we run out of funds
Revisiting concerns about financial stability and enduring love.
What if, times ain't really all that fun
-What if, after all these years with everything we've gone through
-We may not feel no love
-Well I don't know but I've been ready
Reiteration of readiness for growth and facing challenges.
We can only grow, oh beyond plenty
-To only think we're making history in just our twenties
-I'm gripping on this steering wheel yeah we riding steady
-We finna ride this out
Continued determination to face challenges resiliently, likening to a vintage Chevy.
Like a, like a, like a
-Like a vintage Chevy
-Oh It don't matter when the times
-Get up-up or down
-It don't matter when the times get heavy
-We finna ride this out
-Like a, like a, like a
-Like a vintage Chevy
-Oh It don't matter when the times
-Get up-up or down
-It don't matter when the times get heavy
-Ride it out
Final call to "Ride it out," reinforcing the theme of resilience.
Ride it out
-Ride it out
-Ride it out
-Ride it out
-Ride it out
-Ride it out
-Ride it out
