Some Shit I Never Wrote
01:27

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/

Still the Same

[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]

La Nouvelle Scène
04:40
|

[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]

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]

Away From Vegas
05:46
|
|||
[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/

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/
