[Verse 1]
When I was younger used to dream of driving cars
So when I turned sixteen man I was ready for divorce
From having no choice as to when I left my boys
Of waiting in the snow man that got really annoying
February twenty-fourth that’s when I was ready
Had my permit and appointment scheduled round eleven
So, I dipped outta Josh’s class like ten minutes early
Hoped they had a hearse on site cause I was ready for this murking
Cause I’d been working, this license was important
That’s freedom and a second driver cause my mom deserved it
The timing was just perfect
Exactly sixteen days after my birthday
And there wasn’t nothing that could stop me
Not even terrifying people like a Dennis Rodman
Stepped inside the car and got the whole thing started
Parked it fifteen minutes later had my driver’s license popping
[Hook]
See my heart pump, like the engine in the hood
And my mind flood, with all the new things I can do
Let my mind loose, lose all the tension in my neck
Same feeling that I get when I drove that first whip
See my heart pump, like the engine in the hood
And my mind flood, with all the new things I can do
Girl you treat me good but it ain’t a contest
Ain’t a feeling that can match with riding out that first whip
[Verse 2]
To be honest man it wasn’t no thing
Cause your boy been driving since he was fourteen
Bounced out the DMV and drove back to class
Man I even made it back for math and Chinese (sorry Guisti)
Felt like the coolest kid driving round town
Only one in my class that could whip until now
Things went pretty smooth up until around May
Blew out my rear speakers bumping to my own tape
It was Cliché, just to be specific
Too perfect yet again but I missed it
I was busy tripping, cause I was thinking ‘ooh mom’ll kill me’
She’ll take the car away from me for acting so ignant
But she never noticed
And after that mishap, I gained focus
Throw some bonus stats to my all around performance
Always cool always frozen now I’m seasoned like McCormick
[Hook]
See my heart pump, like the engine in the hood
And my mind flood, with all the new things I can do
Let my mind loose, lose all the tension in my neck
Same feeling that I get when I drove that first whip
See my heart pump, like the engine in the hood
And my mind flood, with all the new things I can do
Girl you treat me good but it ain’t a contest
Ain’t a feeling that can match with riding out that first whip
[Verse 3]
Flash forward to the present
Down the street you can still feel my presence (zooom)
Cause I got that Camry engine revving
And the exhaust ooh boy you can smell it (whew)
Walk a mile in my shoes but drive eight thousand in my car
Maybe then you can judge me though you did it from the start
I know I’m a star and that’s all that really matters
Tryna whip it like me I just hope that you can handle it
[Bridge]
Learned to ride a bike?
Nothing on that first whip
Did it all night?
Nothing on that first whip
Just got out of school?
Nothing on that first whip
Oh you think you cool?
Not without that first whip
Learned to ride a bike?
Nothing on that first whip
Did it all night?
Ain’t nothing on that first whip
Just got out of school?
Nothing on that first whip
Oh you think you cool?
Said not without that first whip, boy
