o'hene savant - ride on lyrics

[verse 1]
i’m from a scene where we’ve seen what a savage do
ritual scenes of a fiend on the avenue
cops passing you, hoping they can capture you and put you in a system already after you
pray to god, look away what them pastors do
then you wonder why the streets got no rap for you
terrorized by wallet size and homicides
thinking back how i survived, man, i could cry
pac wondered if heaven’s got a ghetto
i hope not ‘cause the ghetto’s for the devil
where the screams echo, mothers who had to let go
like afeni, their sons all on death row
i would tell ‘em not to weep
but their tears are the only thing to wash the grief
i hug ‘em and tell ‘em lean on the god in you
that’s all you got, don’t let ‘em doubt in you, and they replied

[hook]
and ride on
ride on
ride on, ride on
and ride on, ride on
fight on, fight on

and ride on
ride on
ride on, ride on
and ride on, ride on
fight on, fight on
and ride on
ride on
ride on, ride on
and ride on, ride on
fight on, fight on

and ride on
ride on
ride on, ride on
and ride on, ride on
fight on, fight on

[verse 2]
crack dealers used to brag about serving all the heads
pointing fingers ‘bout who’s working for the feds
cia pushed crack in the urban for our death
so if you was selling crack, you was working for the feds
hypocrite mindset talking ‘bout snitching
b+tching about [?] while straight bullets k!ll children
nino brown, a turkey in exchange
for your community, man, this sh+t is so insane
some sell their soul for five minutes of fame
some sell their soul for the block to see their chain
i’m not a crip though and i don’t shed blood
but i will take a bullet for the people that i love
and i will send a bullet to the ones k!lling us
not a thug, the spirit of huey truly in us
and this is the mountain that i would die on
i’m from the valley where they climb on
[hook]
and ride on
ride on
ride on, ride on
and ride on, ride on
fight on, fight on

and ride on
ride on
ride on, ride on
and ride on, ride on
fight on, fight on

[verse 3]
it takes a lot of courage to go and do a bid
and even more courage to be there for your kids
there were times we struggled to keep the lights on
while everybody’s going crazy over my songs
i’m from the hood, that ain’t much so i keep believing
used to sleep by the stove just to keep from freezing
cream of wheat in the morning and in the evening
at times cried just to drown out my stomach screaming
granddaddy on the bottle so he seeing demons
hate to see it, even me, man, i can’t believe it
one day he even pulled a gun on me
i have a death day, guess that wasn’t the one for me
somehow i managed this young [?]
so many times when they sent the reaper to come for me
it’s because of all this i keep the light on
and keep the grind on and shine on and [?]
[hook]
and ride on
ride on
ride on, ride on
and ride on, ride on
fight on, fight on

and ride on
ride on
ride on, ride on
and ride on, ride on
fight on, fight on

[outro]
that’s right
people see with their eyes too much in these times
they see it and they just ride
but if you’re gonna ride, go beyond your eyes, hearing beyond your ears and into your minds, your third eye
and let’s get it and ride
ride on, ride on, bruh
o’hene savant
for you, you, you and the crew
2022
from the bro, chuck d, let’s go

ride on
fight on
ride on, ride on
ride on
fight on
ride on, ride on
ride on
fight on
