[Intro: Joey Alana]
Yeah

[Chorus: Joey Alana]
Had to get up, had to get up
Had to go and get some money
People hatin', yeah they hatin' (Yeah)
Wanna come and take it from me (Do it)
Keep away, I'm never faded (Fade)
Youth for real, we don't play it (Yeah)
We got the drama out the way (Yeah)
Now new music on the way
You gonna ride the wave (Yeah, okay)
You gonna ride the wave (Ride, okay, okay)
Got the drama out the way (Alright)
I got music on the way (Okay, okay)
You gonna ride the wave (Ride)

[Verse 1: Joey Alana]
They just wanna ride the wave
When she see me, she gon' wave
Lately I been on my grind, dawg, ain't no quit in the man
Work for the summer, still up, 4 AM
With the pad and the pen, I'm obnoxious
I'm in control of it all in the cockpit
What if I get faded off of the bottle right now? (Right now)
I can not like Jack
Shorty got an ass, why I'm fly like that
And shorty got ass to reply like
"Why stacks when I can have the whole damn thing"
On my cell phone ring alive like that
Tried to be that, now damn too selfish
Guess God made me different, can't help it
In case y'all done forgot, I make hell sweat
Whenever I get on a beat, I still help it
I'm slowly makin' it work, I make 'em awning
The boy really too fresh, ain't even tryin' now
The milestones that y'all hit don't even smile 'bout
Shit, I'm too lit right now, but still gon' wyle out
Put the fire out on the game, wish me another out
Frontin' out, how you been hatin', quit your cryin' now
Sonnin' all them with the bullshit, ride the wave
Tell 'em all the same, hashin', let 'em burn it out
I ain't slowin' down, no
I don't even know her name, man, fuck it
If you ain't see me, then you know I'm doin' somethin'
Quit now, motherfucker, naw you ain't stuntin'
I really came from nothing, why would I lie though?
Tryna head out west, got me five hoes
No role models, soon to have rivals
One more thing bro, motherfuck the 5-0
[Chorus: Joey Alana]
Had to get up, had to get up
Had to go and get some money (Get it)
People hatin', yeah they hatin' (Yeah)
Wanna come and take it from me (Do it)
Keep away, I'm never faded (Fade)
Youth for real, we don't play it (Yeah)
We got the drama out the way (Yeah)
Now new music on the way
You gonna ride the wave (Yeah, okay)
You gonna ride the wave (Yeah, okay, okay)
Got the drama out the way (Alright)
I got music on the way (Okay, okay)
You gonna ride the wave (Ride)

[Verse 2: Packy]
The wait is over, I went and got the weight off my shoulder
Time spent, got my circle closer
My verses on wanted posters
People swingin' but I got a whole serve
Been lit, but the shit, it slow burn
Sometimes, you just gotta soul search
Come up out that shit like a soldier
Big facts on your bitch ass
Had to swerve on 'em quick fast
I been on the road, yeah, 2018
Got 'em all in the scope like Jimmy Iovine, where they at?
Who gonna ride the wave? Who gonna be in the way?
Who gonna be online? Look at you bein' brave
Who gonna be on time? Who gonna be too late?
Work, every day is a do day
When you at the bottom of the food chain
(Don't you get famous on me)
They rather see you struggle
They only love you if they above you
Then you break through, friends fuck you
But you got fans and a budget
Fuck a double-XL list 'long as I'm x-ing shit off the bucket
Yeah, I am not a puppet, everything ain't for the public
Butterflies in my stomach
Still, I went and took the league (Take it)
Y'all can't really take the heat (Take it)
I can't take the summer off (Take it)
All my people gotta eat (All of 'em)
This time next year (This time, this time)
We gon' see who's in the lead
[Chorus: Joey Alana]
Had to get up, had to get up
Had to go and get some money (Get it)
People hatin', yeah they hatin' (Yeah)
Wanna come and take it from me (Do it)
Keep away, I'm never faded (Fade)
Youth for real, we don't play it (Yeah)
We got the drama out the way (Yeah)
Now new music on the way
You gonna ride the wave (Yeah, okay)
You gonna ride the wave (Yeah, okay, okay)
Got the drama out the way (Alright)
I got music on the way (Okay, okay)
You gonna ride the wave (Ride)
