B 13. One Last Ride ft Eric Holland |
LyricsOne Last Ride© 2015 Starburst I used to play with tops and yoyos Hide and seek with all my friends Building forts from pillows From day start 'til the end Mama called us home for supper Papa's home from work Reliving these good memories Just seems to make it hurt Life was so much simpler Everybody knew All our neighbors on the block And down the avenue But now there's only coldness All throughout the hood It seems the use of fear Has destroyed all that's good (chorus) Have we lost all promise? Have we lost all hope? Is it violence that clamors As the only way to cope? Is self-destruction coming A nation's suicide? Or are we just all begging For that one last ride? My first grade teacher Used to make me kneel and pray Sister Mary Ellen Said that God would show the way To stay grounded Fully in the light But now I'm lost and searching For how to make things right (chorus) Have we lost all promise? Have we lost all hope? Is it violence that clamors As the only way to cope? Is self-destruction coming A nation's suicide? Or are we just all begging For that one last ride? (Bridge) What would we have thought? Way back in the day Nobody predicted We wojuld lose the will to play Never saw it coming History repeats The earth's best promise Kneeling in defeat (chorus) Have we lost all promise? Have we lost all hope? Is it violence that clamors As the only way to cope? Is self-destruction coming A nation's suicide? Or are we just all begging For that one last ride? Or are we just all begging For one last ride? |
