Take Me For A Ride heads up their new album What The Future Holds Pt.2, the sequel to last year's record, released on September 10.

The song is described as departure from their recent singles, with the group describing it as "much darker than what we have done in the past and the lyrics tell a real story about someone being gaslighted in a relationship, a topic that’s finally getting the attention it deserves.

"It’s one of several songs on the new What The Future Holds Pt 2 album that takes our Steps sound in exciting new directions. We can’t wait to hear what everyone thinks about the track and the album as a whole. We hope you love it as much as we do."
