Let's Ride Lyrics - Singles - The Last Emperor

[The Last Emperor] 

Everybody come with me, lets take a ride 

Turn the system up loud, let it amplify 

Look around at the town and let the sounds lead you 

Everywhere I see the remice of a proud people 

Where little girls find their way in the world through mama 

And little guys see the world through the eyes of fathers 

Everybody wanna learn I to earn a dollar 

We know there's more to the hood than urban squallor 

Now, I don't need to take up ya time 

But I just wanted to know what's on ya mind 

Whether work is hard to find, unemployment line 

Or got a job or ya blind doin' overtime 

Don't be ashamed, you got ya pride 

To maintain, after the rain, the sun will shine 

There will be better whether for everyone 

Though we all move to the beat of a different drum 

Passin' the time in a popular way 

Like Otis Redding sitting at the dock of the bay 

I got a long way on this road but hey 

I take pride in the fact that I'm alive today 

 

[Chorus: The Last Emperor] 

Everybody on the east side, c'mon, let me know that you got ya pride 

Everybody on the west side, c'mon, let me know that you got ya pride 

Everybody on the north side, c'mon y'all, show me you got ya pride 

And everybody on the south side, c'mon, let me know that you got ya pride 

 

[The Last Emperor] 

Summertime the heat is hot, will I ever reach the top 

Yo it's time to leave the block, finish my tequila shot 

Mellow but sober when I'm in the car 

So I can ride to the rhythm of the guitar 

I hear the music I'm prepared to follow 

The body overcomes the city of El Dorado 

Mexican City that's paved of gold 

Made sacred by the ancients in days of old 

Brown pride, they got it down to a science 

That's right, Old Metz, Aztecs and Rions 

Combined with colours of a tapestry 

Yeah I hear my brown brothers hollarin back of me 

From freedom fighters, to the band deleroes 

To the old man wearin' the tan sanbrero 

From the food in the music that's la fiesta 

To the afternoon nap thats la siesta 

"Never venture out the hood" is what some people say 

But I love it to much to ever keep away 

Beautiful brown people in the streets today 

Who show me love when I'm drivin' through Easter Lane 

And they say.. 

 

[Chorus] 

 

[The Last Emperor] 

They got you to rock to a slower groove 

I hope you like all the things that I'm showin' you 

It's all good, every hood that I'm rollin' through 

Ya might not notice me, but I notice you 

Livin' your life through poverty, I see smiles for as long as the eye can see 

I'm proud of y'all and I hope that your proud of me 

God bless the child who runs wild and free 

City to city and town to town 

I can see alot of pride as I drive arouund 

Hold ya heads up high when ya feelin' down 

Remember y'all we gotta stand tall and proud 

 

[Chorus]
