As their 5th release from their debut album ‘The Ride’ was another song that was written rather quickly. Just over an hour after Dragos brought the main riff into the rehearsal room the bulk of the song was written.

During this first session Maria had already started coming up with melodic and even a few lyrical ideas laying the groundwork for the vocals in this song.

The lyrics were finalised a bit later by both Dragos and Maria after working with Maria’s improvised words during the first writing session. They are rather philosophical in content as they refer to the fluid and ever changing nature of life which ‘comes on its own’, it happens by itself and, like a river, is ever changing. This is what the song refers to as ‘the ride of life’. To be alive often feels like we are being taken on this ride that is always changing, always new, scary but beautiful.
