Dont take what I do as a joke/ Some shit I never wrote/ Overboard, Lifeboat/ Gotta make it, it's all I know/ It's the Drive EP/ You can have this for free/ I just wanna be free/ Can you feel what I mean?/ Airborne, J5's on the feet/ Stay live for the dream/ Wide awake when they sleep/ Yeah, I just wanna be free/ Talk to me, I stand right by it/ In a room full of Silence/ Yeah, it feels kinda quiet/ The echoes of a riot/ And they don't know Ryan/ No one ever will/ Not in times that I chill/ Drunk, behind the wheel/ My girl hates that I smoke/ This is life and it's dope/ I don't know if I'll cope/ Some shit I never wrote/

[VERSE 1] Live like an OutKast, no '3000'/ From 3000, I never stay grounded/ My ride might leave full speed I am outty/ They ain't in my league free-fall from a balcony/ Full tank flow, but I think I better re-up/ 30 thousand feet so that's why I never see much/ See us, whole team clean cut/ Crew neck crisp J6 put my feet up/ See me on camera, see me on an Album/ See me down and out though, it will never happen/ AA tee, all white like calcium/ Plain black kicks, all flight like valium/ And I could kill 'em by a million/ I keep em on my tail, 'cos the feelings kinda brilliant/ And it's arrogant as fuck/ The reason that I'm never giving up, I drive all night/ [CHORUS] [VERSE 2] My eyes on that title, free for that viral/ Play like 'Bron', but I chase that 'Michael'/ Life and it's cycle, spark a revival/ Cloud of smoke thrown to the face of a tidal/ Staring down the eyes of a rifle/ Shotgun blast might be suicidal/ Two eyes, just like you and I do/ A lot more brains than what you and I knew/ Money plus fame the only lane that we chase/ Think different 'cos they goin' try change us anyway/ Get doe like 'Jobs', till my friends fade away/ But I bet Steve died with a smile on his face/ No sign, no trace/ Disappearing act, no lights on the stage/ Tell us, read a book - no words on the page/ One look, get us hooked, no sign of you for days/ Try justify the chase, homies/ Try running with the ace, phonies/ I been running every day/ It's no wonder that you lames ain't even in my lane/ Drive Slow/ [CHORUS] [VERSE 3] Drive in the summer time, drive all year/ Drive in the winter, with the ice on my gears, and/ I'm a winner so I drive for the cheers/ Drive past all the hate, then divide all my peers/ Crash course on how it's all done properly/ Empires might fall, my apologies/ Chillin' shotgun, so I'm sitting in the hot seat/ Shit is so fun, watch 'em all em try and stop me/ Huh?/ I guess ignorance is bliss/ I might drive off a cliff/ Jimmy Dean knows what feeling this is/ When you speed so high it's impossible to lift/ It's no lie, Ry's on a new level/ They said I got a hotline to the devil/ I told em all step aside for the rebel/ My gears in drive, put the pedal to the metal/ Drive on/ [CHORUS]

Let Me Know 05:00
[VERSE 1] She's working as an actress, trying to find a job/ I'm working as a rapper, trying to find a spot/ But we both got bills, lord knows that we lost/ Went our own way, I guess fate had it wrong/ Long gone, ain't got squat diddley/ Seeing her leave is like a shot to the kidney/ A feeling that's the opposite of victory/ With my new girl but we both got history/ Damn, awkward pause/ Somehow can't feel I seen it all before/ One man goes in like the rest we fall/ Smile full of sin, don't get involved/ And that body would make the room shake/ With a smile so sweet it gave me a tootheache/ Touché' I can't think of a word now/ I swear this girl tore my world out/ I swear to god I hope it works out/ Let me know/ [CHORUS] [VERSE 2] My whole life changed in the fullest/ Heart in a chain, then she aimed with a bullet/ Then I said please swear your the truest/ Ain't down for this type of fall and she knew it/ Loose lips might sink the Titanic, so/ Don't slip, the height is gigantic, though/ If I did, still feel I might manage/ A big risk, the mist is quite mammoth/ A mistress, with misfits salute us/ How to make this click, still eludes us/ A formula not solved by computers/ Manuals too long to confuse us/ We just wait for an invite/ It's no fluke time fly's, when you're in flight/ My better half might die on the inside/ Deep down I'm just praying for an insight/ Are you in time? Let me know/ [CHORUS] © 2012 Ryan Egan

[VERSE 1] They said I got movie flow, it sounds cinematic/ Man I think I'm bout to make it, hate to be so dramatic/ That's Ry right there, swagged out kid with a sci fi flair/ But this ain't low key, everybody watch we got prime time air/ Heir to throne, don't mind if I do/ See Im chillin' in a zone, just Ry and the crew/ Rookie type hype, but I aint that new/ Its that MVP shit, two broads in a coupe/ Tell me why so serious?/ Let loose, tell me why so delirious/ Man, I'm really just curious/ Did this on the fly now I got guys furious? Huh/ Let 'em hate, let 'em hate/ They don't wanna move on, let em stay, let em stay/ See I got my own lane, every body move over/ Indicate, Indicate/ [CHORUS] [VERSE 2] See I'm gaining speed, and we ain't got breaks/ It's our lifelong dream, more c.r.e.a.m on the way/ Yeah I said cash rules, running on empty, never catch fuels/ No catch, that's cool, do what I want is the number one rule/ Fuck heat, I'm spitting that acid/ I got drive and my fans is the passengers/ They want more, treat Ry like Maximus/ They want war, see Ry is a pacifist/ Hail mary, God bless/ It aint fair, what's next?/ Mixtapes in the trunk/ New state, New day, we can't not tear it up/ Fair enough, watch it all go viral/ Add a little class, put French in the title/ Through it all, the one constant is music/ MC Ren, See my drives so 'Ruthless'/ Villain/ [CHORUS] © 2012 Ryan Egan

All We Got 05:00
[VERSE 1] The one thing that eludes me/ The same thing that moves me/ It's the chase that soothes me/ I feel like I'm in a movie/ Except nothing is scripted, but the words on the page/ I'm emmersed in this phase, I'm a slave/ Nerds in a rage, so I tell dream on/ Birds in a cage, we just wanna be gone/ Ain't no place for the level I'm on/ Ain't no space for the star I got/ Ain't no heroes for what I built/ Aint no de niros up in my film/ I'm finna drop it, I hope you feel/ When you got no conscience, know that's real, Drive/ [CHORUS] [VERSE 2] I see it all in my rear view/ I stress that I'm dreaming/ I see you right above me/ I don't know if I'm breathing/ Is it all just a dream? So we think what if?/ Whenever I fall asleep, I can feel that lift/ See I'm falling deep, but it won't make sense/ Explore my options, see who's left/ I gotta be next, that's just my aim/ I gotta be left, that's just my lane/ I ain't gotta be them, they ain't in my space/ I'mma let em chase, right through my maze/ If you ain't get that, I ain't gotta chit chat/ I won't ever look back, this is all I want/ Every so often, They got a problem/ I ain't have an option, its all I got, Drive/ [VERSE 3] I got street dreams, up in my mind/ And I hear things, when it's late at night/ I gave you a tape, better play that right/ Paving a way that could change my life/ Slaving away in a 9 till 5/ We just zone out then we go for a drive/ Just you and I all alone with the lights/ Beneath the eyes of the highway of life/ Roll on, yeah, gotta chase that prophecy/ You gotta know that dreams my property, and/ My biggest lie is my modesty, damn/ I gotta see it done properly/ Get me a seat where it's right at the top/ Until that day I gotta chase that spot/ Never will change, it is all we got/ No foot on the brake, cos i just wont stop, Drive/ [CHORUS] © 2012 Ryan Egan

[VERSE 1] Thought I was gone, thought a kids dead/ A kids got goals, see 'em right ahead/ Everybody got problems, you ain't that spesh/ Everybody got a conscience, but you aint there/ See me in my Testarossa/ My ignorant views goin' test the culture/ Then entice them over/ Bow Tied up in expensive loafers/ They ain't gone take our moment/ Nah, this'll only take a moment/ It is always forward motion/ Now watch me slice it open/ Watch me slice it open/ Tell 'em they should take a photo/ Forget about the name man Ry's a loco/ Forget about game put 'em in a chokehold/ So cold, Air Jordan 4s push down on my accelerator/ Gotta get that no time for later/ Tape in the deck Ry in the player/ How the hell the going to stop me now/ Murk em on track them tie them down/ See me decked out I'm alumni now/ See I earnt this place, now get out of my cloud/ Peace to the rolling stones/ Tell my kids I'm a rolling stone/ Finna drive to a whole new zone/ Fuck a real job this is all I know/ But they got problems now/ Find my tapes in the lost and found/ Wondering why I been slept on how?/ 'Cos a kids so high that I won't come down/ Brand new tyres, check/ Cos a kid ain't tired, yet/ Doors go up like elevators/ When a kid rolls up I'm like hello haters!/ Driving away from Vegas, Skyline in the rear/ Can you hear my engine roaring? They feel that I'm near/ Right now I feel like I'm soaring, I'm in the all clear/ Matte Black rides all mine, she loves me dear/ I can hear that engine talking, all the way to top/ Right now I don't feel like walking, it is all I got/ I know it might feel like falling, just know we're not/ Im In my world exploring, and i just won't stop, break/ [VERSE 2] I'm back for a second round/ They still can't shut me down/ They still can silence me, nah/ Won't stop, till I got the crown/ Driving along the highway, at speeds so fast/ They said don't do it my way, It just won't last/ But I'm still just here in my place, wave when I pass/ Laughing while they try to keep pace, yeah this ain't hard/ Yeah, this just ain't hard/ Drive on/ I feel so super natural/ This feelings become quite casual/ What I do might seem so stressful/ But the motives to be successful/ Hands on the wheel with leather gloves/ Try keep pace, get left in dust/ And we won't forget, when they neglected us/ So we're never going to let em get the best of us/ Driving away from Vegas, Skyline In the rear/ Can you hear my engine roaring? They feel that I'm near/ Right now I feel like I'm soaring, I'm in the all clear/ Matte Black rides all mine, she loves me dear/ I can hear that engine talking, all the way to top/ Right now I don't feel like walking, it is all I got/ I know it might feel like falling, just know we're not/ Im In my world exploring, and i just won't stop, Drive/ © 2012 Ryan Egan

REvolution 04:50
[VERSE 1] Dont worry about your morals/ Time to kill your sorrows/ Claiming they're original/ When really they were borrowed/ You just hit the lotto/ What you're hearings is a Pharoe/Pharoe/Pharoe/ Follow me through new times/ Holy play stations/ Creation of the new minds/ Never evolved, a generation was designed/ By suits in board rooms, Robots of a new time/ To be better than the last kind/ All about drive and no sleep, called geeks cos we don't speak/ I'm an artist in my own right/ Think this with my own mind/ Society's got my phone tapped/ So I record it from a landmine, fuck a landline/ Boom, shit is cool by a campfire/ Guns loaded but they can't fire/ They need new ammo/ Say hello to the bad guy/ yeah that's right, yeah that's Ry/ Fuck a Rebel, I'm a Revolution/ [VERSE 2] Higher than Apollo, time for you to follow/ Looked into their soul, but you found that is was hollow/ We just need dolo/ This is where I'm at, matter of fact it's a motto/ motto/ motto/ Chasing what ain't real/ I speak sound then I paint film/ Let you know how the pain feel/ Yeah the pains real/ Feel it slow like a bad rush/ Times up we're in mad rush/ Deadlines, studio times and concerts/ Yeah I do for the comfort/ Drive fast so I feel settled/ Pilot in the cockpit jet set to a new level/ This is new metal/ I need a new medal/ Aint no such thing as stand by/ And that's motto that I stand by/ They need more ammo/ Say hello to the bad guy/ yeah that's right, yeah that's Ry/ Fuck a Rebel I'm a Revolution/ © 2012 Ryan Egan
