Jay Akki - Ride Lyrics

I just took a ride for you brother
(I just took a ride I just took a ride)
Real talk I cried for you brother
(And you know I cried you know I cried)
Swear I would've died for you brother
(I would've died and I still would)
When I look around
You can't be found
Where are you now?
(Where are you now?)

Uncle told me never be surprised
Even now I'm wiping tears from my eyes
God knows I understand wearing a disguise
I done told my fair share of poor excuses and lies
Earlier today when I bounced back
Never did I think they'd announce that
My broski my homie was going they told me
That things would get harder as this system was closing
I knows it personally now I done felt it
After all the pain that I've dealt with
I'm smelted through the fire I've been tested
After everything I've been blessed with
Throw it in the trash man I can't pass judgement
But I just can't say nothing
Lest we never get another chance for discussion
I love you and understand your suffering

I just took a ride for you brother
(I just took a ride I just took a ride)
Real talk I cried for you brother
(And you know I cried you know I cried)
Swear I would've died for you brother
(I would've died and I still would)
When I look around
You can't be found
Where are you now?
(Where are you now?)

When I think about your mom
Your wife and your daughter
The weight of it all hits me harder
I oughta write a letter
Send a card to console 'em
Sending up prayers that Jehovah will hold 'em
I was sitting with your little one the other day
Crazy to think you got another on the way
Whatever you been going through only you could say
Man I wish we coulda talked man I wonder if I paid
More attention minded what I mentioned around you
And asked questions could I'd spiritually ground you
I feel responsible in a way is that weird
I don't think I showed you how much I really cared
I remember joining you and Dallas
Sitting in on studies while you tried to find a balance
Seemed that you did hope you find it again
I'll be focusing on my mine while I'm waiting on you friend

I just took a ride for you brother
(I just took a ride I just took a ride)
Real talk I cried for you brother
(And you know I cried you know I cried)
Swear I would've died for you brother
(I would've died and I still would)
When I look around
You can't be found
Where are you now?
(Where are you now?)
