Long Ride
Come on, we all wanna go there
Rev it up, close it down, fill it up
'Til we're senseless
Escape the loneliness and anger
Lose the compass that God gave ya
Take the bait and let violence claim ya
Forget the work that comes with changes
I know you wanna let go of the reins here
But it's gonna be a long ride
Hang on, my friend, I know, I get it
It's gonna be a long ride
Were you down at the food pantry?
(Were you down)
The lines of this growing longer every day
Did you listen to their stories?
(Did you hear?)
No job, no medicine
No food to eat
An epidemic of inequality, and a
A pandemic raging
Come on, we all wanna go there
Rev it up, close it down, fill it up
'Til we're senseless
Escape the loneliness and anger
Lose the compass that God gave ya
Take the bait and let violence claim ya
Forget the work that comes with changes
I know you wanna let go of the reins here
But it's gonna be a long ride
Hang on my friend, I know, I get it
It's gonna be a long ride
Hang on my friend, I know, I get it
It's gonna be a long ride
Were you down at city hall
Raising a fist against the racist toll?
Don't you think it's time to reparate
For infected blankets and the laws that harbor hate?
Do you dream of a beloved community?
So, sing songs of freedom
Come on, we all wanna go there (we all wanna)
Rev it up, close it down, fill it up (go there)
'Til we're senseless (senseless)
Escape the loneliness and anger (lonely, angry)
Lose the compass that God gave ya
Look at the kids unsure of the future
Leading the marches
Waking the culture
Up from the opiate of slumber
Don't you wanna be in that number?
Don't take the bait and let violence claim ya
Don't forget the work that comes with changes
We know we can't let go of the reins here
But it's gonna be a long ride
Hang on my friend, I know, I get it
(It's gonna be a long ride)
It's gonna be a long ride
Hang on my friend, I know, I get it
(It's gonna be a long ride)
It's gonna be a long ride
Hang on my friend, I said I get it
(It's gonna be a long ride)
It's gonna be a long ride.
Rev it up, close it down, fill it up
'Til we're senseless
Escape the loneliness and anger
Lose the compass that God gave ya
Take the bait and let violence claim ya
Forget the work that comes with changes
I know you wanna let go of the reins here
But it's gonna be a long ride
Hang on, my friend, I know, I get it
It's gonna be a long ride
Were you down at the food pantry?
(Were you down)
The lines of this growing longer every day
Did you listen to their stories?
(Did you hear?)
No job, no medicine
No food to eat
An epidemic of inequality, and a
A pandemic raging
Come on, we all wanna go there
Rev it up, close it down, fill it up
'Til we're senseless
Escape the loneliness and anger
Lose the compass that God gave ya
Take the bait and let violence claim ya
Forget the work that comes with changes
I know you wanna let go of the reins here
But it's gonna be a long ride
Hang on my friend, I know, I get it
It's gonna be a long ride
Hang on my friend, I know, I get it
It's gonna be a long ride
Were you down at city hall

It's gonna be a long ride
Hang on my friend, I know, I get it
(It's gonna be a long ride)
It's gonna be a long ride
Hang on my friend, I said I get it
(It's gonna be a long ride)
It's gonna be a long ride.
