Ride or Die Lyrics
If you wanna go outside for my love
Get by for my love
You could see right through me
If you wanna go and get high for my love
Make you cry for my love
Like you said you knew me
If you wanna go and waste time for my love
Pay no mind to my love
You could walk right through me
If you wanna go outside for my love
Ride or die for my love
Could you see right through me?
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
If you wanna go outside for my love
Get by for my love
You could see right through me
If you wanna go and get high for my love
Make you cry for my love
Like you said you knew me
If you wanna go and waste time for my love
Pay no mind to my love
You could walk right through me
If you wanna go outside for my love
Ridе or die for my love
Could you see right through me?
If you count thе seconds I lack I'll break my back just thinking about it
Add it up and then subtract, I'll leave you be if you want me to
Spent my money but I'll make it back
Like cold hard cash, like blood on the pavement
Add it up and then subtract, I'll leave you be if you want me to
[Bridge: Jake, Jake & Nathan]
I think you could, you wouldn't maybe
I think you could, if you tried to like me
I think you could, you wouldn't maybe (I think that I'm not thinking about you, everyone else is leaving without you)
I think you could, if you tried to like me (I think that I'm not thinking about you, everyone else is leaving without you)
I think you could, you wouldn't maybe (I think that I'm not thinking about you, everyone else is leaving without you)
I think you could, if you tried to like me
[Chorus: Jake]
If you wanna go outside for my love
Get by for my love
You could see right through me
If you wanna go and get high for my love
Make you cry for my love
Like you said you knew me
If you wanna go and waste time for my love
Pay no mind to my love
You could walk right through me
If you wanna go outside for my love
Ride or die for my love
Could you see right through me?
If you count the seconds I lack I'll break my back just thinking about it
Add it up and then subtract, I'll leave you be if you want me to
Spent my money but I'll make it back
Like cold hard cash, like blood on the pavement
Add it up and then subtract, I'll leave you be if you want me to
About
With ambient sounds reminiscent of the band member’s solo work, “Ride or Die” opens up LP3's B-side with style. The album’s third single is lyrically repetitive, backed by a groovy drumbeat.
Fittingly, “Ride or Die” is drummer Whistler Allen’s favorite song from the record, as well as producer Caleb Hinz’s.
In promotion of the track, 1000 flexi discs were distributed internationally to indie record stores. Throughout the US, UK, ANZ, and Japan lucky fans could pick up a free copy if they were able to locate them.

It’s more about the way the words go with the melody than the words themselves. It’s one of my favorite songs on the record — you can really hear everyone in the band doing their thing. It’s about wanting to find a partner who would do anything for you.
