Baby, just to ride with you, ride with you, ride with you, ride
Baby, just to ride with you, ride, baby, all night
Yeah, they think I have it all
You know my life ain't perfect
You see what's underneath
You see what's on the surface
You get the best of me
They get a lesser version
I don't wanna run away
But you know that I can love this
Overdrive with the flashin' lights got me feelin' blind
Do or die, live a little lie, wanna feel alive
It's been a while in another life, wanna leave behind
Let's get back to you and I
Yeah, I got my eyes wide shut, drivin' through the night
And my lungs are filled with purple haze
Yeah, I'm livin' it up to get me out my mind
'Cause it's in my blood, rushin' through my veins
I feel numb when I hear them say my name
Yeah, I'm livin' it up, but I leave it all behind
Baby, just to ride with you, ride with you, ride with you, ride
Baby, just to ride with you, ride, baby, all night (baby, just to ride)
Baby, just to ride with you, ride with you, ride with you, ride
Baby, just to ride with you, ride, baby, all night
Yeah, so I fill my lungs with this weed smoke
That's the only way we cope
Sick to death of these journalists
Diggin' up my past, so I burn a spliff
And I hope on board my space ship
Never hold down a relationship
And I'm fake shit, so I make ship
Show me something real and I'll make shit
And I'll build a bridge if we fallin' off
You don't wanna know I am all about
Got so many dudes that are sellin' out
Me and myself, these smoke clouds
I'm colder now, covered in ice
I will never get you on every night
This is how we separate, I learn from the mice
Gonna give you advice, you can fool me once but can't fool me twice
Overdrive with the flashin' lights got me feelin' blind
Do or die, live a little lie, wanna feel alive
It's been a while in another life, wanna leave behind
Let's get back to you and I
Yeah, I got my eyes wide shut, drivin' through the night
And my lungs are filled with purple haze
Yeah, I'm livin' it up to get me out my mind
'Cause it's in my blood, rushin' through my veins
I feel numb when I hear them say my name
Yeah, I'm livin' it up, but I leave it all behind
Baby, just to ride with you, ride with you, ride with you, ride
Baby, just to ride with you, ride, baby, all night
Baby, just to ride with you, ride with you, ride with you, ride
Baby, just to ride with you, ride, baby, all night
Only adrenaline pullin' me through
Speedin' one hundred to get back to you
I feel so reckless, and I feel confused
Yeah, I do, baby
What if I pull up outside of your door?
Would you forgive me for all of my flaws?
I can't go back to where I was before
Baby, just to ride with you, ride with you, ride with you, ride
Baby, just to ride with you, ride, baby, all night
Baby, just to ride with you, ride with you, ride with you, ride
Baby, just to ride with you, ride, baby, all night
Baby, just to ride with you
