Intro (ad-libs)
Ayy, woo, ah — ooh, yeah
Chorus (melodic)
Ridin' with the switches, keep me safe through the night (through the night)
Windows down, city glow, watch the pain take flight (take flight)
Switches on my side, loyalty in the ride (in the ride)
We move silent, we move quiet, till the sun gon' rise (sun gon' rise)
Ridin' with the switches, ridin' with the switches — yeah (switches)
Verse 1
Took the long way home, pockets heavy with the stress,
Got my brothers in the backseat, heartbeats in the vest.
Every corner got a story, every block got a name,
I keep my mind on blessings, keep my hands off the game.
Mama prayin' on the phone, told me slow down the pace,
But I been runnin' from the past, tryin' build me a new place.
Switches tucked like secrets, but the love ain't disguised,
When the world got cold, we made heat with the ride.
Pre-Chorus
Night talk, low lights, only truth in the dark,
One look, one nod — that's how we start the spark.
Chorus (melodic)
Ridin' with the switches, keep me safe through the night (through the night)
Windows down, city glow, watch the pain take flight (take flight)
Switches on my side, loyalty in the ride (in the ride)
We move silent, we move quiet, till the sun gon' rise (sun gon' rise)
Ridin' with the switches, ridin' with the switches — yeah (switches)
Verse 2
Used to sleep on floors, now it's floors in the coupe,
Still I check the rearview for the ghosts of my youth.
Put the trust in real ones, money change, hearts stay cold,
But I keep a couple switches just in case life unfold.
Girl said she ride or die, I seen that love in her eye,
She know the code, she know the moves, she don't need no disguise.
We count blessings in the dark, pray the sun don't divide,
Holdin' steady through the chaos, switches on my side.
Bridge (sung softly)
Pain in my pocket, faith in the dash,
We trade scars for the future, leave the past in the ash.
If the night get heavy, know I got your back,
Switches on the floorboard, keep the fear in the pack.
Chorus (bigger)
Ridin' with the switches, keep me safe through the night (safe)
Windows down, city glow, watch the pain take flight (flight)
Switches on my side, loyalty in the ride (ride)
We move silent, we move quiet, till the sun gon' rise (rise)
Ridin' with the switches, ridin' with the switches — yeah (woo)
Verse 3 (introspective)
Loss taught me seasons, pain taught me to pray,
Countin' up the real ones, let the fakes fade away.
I got stories in my pockets, medals in my scars,
We celebrate small wins while the city keep its scars.
Switches ain't for show, it's just peace in the chest,
When the world try to test us, we just press and finesse.
Promise to my people, we gon' live and survive,
Keep the switches low-key, let the real love ride.
Outro (ad-libs, fading)
Ayy, yeah — ridin' with the switches, stay low, stay right (stay right)
Porque music
See you when I see you
