about

Rhyme & Reason:

I got this record from the homie Cashous Clay from Florida. It had a real smooth, laid back feeling to it and I wanted an everyday concept to it. Whenever I'm in a bad mood, I would hop in the car, roll down the windows and listen to some music. This record capture that feeling, something to ride out and zone with. The record is actually a double entendre with driving nowhere meaning riding around in your car with no destination and having a drive in life but your not getting anywhere with it.

lyrics

Hook:
Somedays I ride out, crack a window
Turn my music up and let the wind blow
Let my mind drift, without a care
Where am I headed?, really I'm just drivin nowhere

Verse One:
Drivin nowhere, without a care
You bringing drama?, man I'm getting out of there
No worries, no stress today
If you had a bad morning throw the rest away and just chill
I gotta come real, growing up all I wanted was a record deal
When you write a hot verse, that's how you suppose to feel
With my first week sales, close to a mil
So I could just post on the coast of Brazil
Got money in the bank, no need to lease the V's
All night, popping bottles with Alicia Keys
I had a dream, like Martin would say but that dream
Is getting harder today to fulfill
And what's odder, is I can't make it rain fa'real
To water these bills, I will slaughter ya kills
I don't get it, how can you come harder than real?, but still

Hook:
Somedays I ride out, crack a window
Turn my music up and let the wind blow
Let my mind drift, without a care
Where am I headed?, really I'm just drivin nowhere

Verse Two:
Somedays I ride out, no destination
Headed towards success but I lost my motivation
Now I'm patiently waitin to retract that statement
Tryin to figure out what it is I'm chasin
My 9 to 5 I'm hatin, feels like from 9 to 5 I'm wasting away
Like Pac searching for them Better Days
I'm amazed, for so long I've been stuck in this daze
This last year been thinking bout retiring
Hip-Hop no longer inspiring
How can I inspire to be what doesn't inspire me?
Just tryin to relight that fire in me
Drivin nowhere to ease my mind, let these problems pass over like Easter time
When it comes to rhymes, I'm a beast with with mine
Will I ever be successful?, guess we'll see in time

Hook:
Somedays I ride out, crack a window
Turn my music up and let the wind blow
Let my mind drift, without a care
Where am I headed?, really I'm just drivin nowhere
