Pootie – Fly High, Ryder Lyrics

Artist: Pootie
Song: Fly High, Ryder

Back when I was a kid, I played baseball at Plumber Field
I was never any good, but I learned a lot from those years
One season I played was tougher than October’s fall
I was on a team with menacing young men

And I always felt so small
My teammates would cut me down to size
Intimidating the living sh#t out of me with their ice cold eyes
I was young as mud and as thin as a rake

On a team like that, there was no room for mistakes
Sometimes coach would put me at the start of the lineup
A place that was previously held by my teammate, Ryder
He would exchange words of fear to me while on deck

Fueling my nerves like a brigadier roughneck
I eventually quit the game when I found punk rock
But those emotions were soon brought back
When painful news spread throughout my high school

My old teammate had chased his girlfriend around with a rifle
He attempted to kill her but then shot himself instead
I started seeing stickers, flags, and shirts that read his name in a phrase
I didn’t understand why he was being remembered

With love and high praise
He was one of the people who ruined a game I loved
He was one of the people that made me want to give up
I didn’t understand it then, but now I do

I’ve learned from my nerved past and I hope he did too
Sometimes people will push you down to stand themselves up
Don’t hate them, embrace them, and never give up
Fly high, Ryder
