John Legend
"Do You Wanna Ride"
(Jay-Z feat. John Legend)
Chorus
I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go
I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go
Do you wanna ride
With me
Do you wanna ride
With me
Verse One
You know why they call a project a project
Cause it's a project
An experiment, we're in it
Only as objects
And the object for us
To explore our prospects
Side step cops
On the way to the top, yes
As kids we would daydream
Sitting on our steps
Pointing at cars like
Yeah that's our six
Hustler's profits
Made our eyes stretch
So on some Dr. Spock sh*t
We started our trek
Some of us made it
Most of us digressed
In the name of those
Who ain't made it my progress
Is your success
Please live through me
See I'm the eyes for Emory
Keep ‘em alive
Collect call
So every time I press 5
All he wanna hear is
His boy talk fly
Up in the Feds
He still holding his head
Cause when he hits the streets
We gonna eat thru this bread, now let's ride
Chorus
I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go
I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go
Do you wanna ride
With me
Do you wanna ride
With me
Verse Two
International HOV
I told you so
40/40's out in Tokyo
Singapore
All this from
Singing songs
Coming up though
We thought slinging raw
Was the end all, be all
To being rich didn't we
Little did I know
My mo' potent delivery
Would deliver me Kingpin of the ink pen
Monster of the double entandre
Coke is still my sponsor, the cola, yeah
HOVA still getting it in with soda
Started from the crates
Drinking, playing spades
Looking out for older guys
Back in the days
Then we got our turn
The takes on the stage
We was stars at the bar
All day pouring Rose
Now I can't wait
Till you get your date
I got some temp plates
Outside of the gate, we gonna ride
Chorus
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go
I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go
Do you wanna ride
With me
Do you wanna ride
With me
Verse Three
Now me and my lil Momma
Keta and Ty Ty
Juan and Dez
Out in St. Tropez
Jay Brown & Kawanna
Sneaking marijuana
You know that Mary J
Give you no more drama
Plus a couple of friends
This whole sh*t got weird
But when you get home
You know your spot's reserved, ya heard
I put my ni**as on,
My ni**as put they ni**as on
And now we all somewhere foreign
Chilling, sipping something, I ain't forget you
cousin
Chorus
