[Intro]

Uh, uh, uh, uh

Yeah

Uh, yo

You wanna come go with me?

My nigga, that ain't no problem

My nigga, come on


[Chorus]

I said you don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride

And let me take you to the other side

You don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride

And let me take you to the other side


[Verse 1]

I said inhale, exhale

I heard your clientele doin' well

I see you boomin' out the STL

Pushin' a 500 SL (SL)

I heard you even got a child now (Look at that)

A baby mama and a bow-wow

My nigga, know you need to calm down

'Fore county run up in your house

But you don't wanna hear that, though, it's too late

Now the feds knocking at your door, you took the bait

They got taps on your mobile phones

They do surveillance all around your home

Now you're pawnin' everything you own

Callin' all your partners for a loan

No more slip-and-slidin' on the chrome

Now your good days have come and gone

I tried to tell you


[Chorus]

I said you don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride

And let me take you to the other side

You don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride

And let me take you to the other side


[Verse 2]

I said, baby girl, what's your name?

And tell me what's your claim to fame?

Oh, I can tell you do your thing

Just by checkin' out your diamond rings

I see you at the mall every day

Buyin' Chanel, Fendi, Donna K

Plus I heard they took your job away

You got your kids' shit on layaway

Mm, you got a 4-5 Infiniti (You're livin' large)

Like your last name was Kennedy (Or El DeBarge)

Oh, I just can't believe (Mm)

That you made that money righteously

The kids asking what they mommy do (Mommy do)

And why she lock us in our bedroom? (Bedroom)

I think mommy gettin' paid to screw

'Cause every night, it's a different dude (Damn)

I tried to tell you


[Chorus]

I said you don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride

And let me take you to the other side

You don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride

And let me take you to the other side (Ayy, lil' dude, come here)


[Verse 3]

Little man, how old are you? (And tell me)

And what you doin' skippin' school?

I see you runnin' with your lil' crew

Out here fightin' over red and blue (Mm)

So now you wanna claim gangs?

Even heard you bought a thumper, man (That ain't it)

You started out with chronic on the brain

Now you smokin' on amphetamines (Mm)

I ain't tryna sell you dreams

Just tryna show you that it's other ways in getting cream (Take it from me)

Just go to school and make somethin' of

Your young life and watch it blow up

And you ain't gotta stop bein' cool

And you ain't even gotta stop flossin' fancy jewels (And fast cars)

Just keep it real with your game, son

And don't forget where you came from

I'm tryna tell you


[Chorus]

I said you don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride

And let me take you to the other side

You don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride

And let me take you to the other side

I said you don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride

And let me take you to the other side

You don't really wanna go, I can tell

But I'ma take you anyway, what the hell?

So come on, get on in the ride
