Ride slow
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

I'm pullin' up at 3
This car just ain't the same without you here next to me
All I wanna do is ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow, like a ghost
Ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow, like a ghost
I'm pullin' up at 3
This car just ain't the same without you here next to me
All I wanna do is ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow, like a ghost

We been goin' back and forth, you think I only want sex
Of course I want it, look at you but that ain't my intentions
I've been tryna soak you up, maybe learn something
I said I would never chase but you keep on running
You know all of my ex's, you think I still do too
I just had to change my number but I'll never lose you
I just got back into town, I'm just tryna unwind
Let me ride around your mind

I'm pullin' up at 3
This car just ain't the same without you here next to me
All I wanna do is ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow, like a ghost
Ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow, like a ghost

She got a kid, she ain't got a lotta free time
I tell her you need a lot more me time (yeah)
She got what everybody like
She's everybody's type (yeah, yeah)
I know that your man took flight (yeah, yeah)
I know that your money ain't right (yeah, yeah)
I saw you at your worst, still think you're the best
I'mma scoop you tonight (yeah, yeah)

I'm pullin' up at 3
This car just ain't the same without you here next to me
All I wanna do is ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow, like a ghost
Ride slow (ayy)




Ride slow (ayy)
Ride slow, like a ghost

Overall Meaning

In Russ's song "Ride Slow," the artist expresses his desire to drive aimlessly and think about his feelings. The song starts with Russ arriving at his destination at 3 am, but he feels like something is missing. He believes that he's unable to enjoy the music and the scenery without the person he's thinking of being there with him. He just wants to ride slow like a ghost, which means he wants to be unnoticed in his car and away from the world. Russ is looking for a way to unwind and relax without any distractions or interruptions. He needs some 'me-time,' but he wants it to be with the person he's thinking of.


In the verses, Russ speaks about the dynamics of his relationship with the person he's thinking of. He clears the air about his intentions and how he values the relationship more than just sex. Russ claims that he wants to learn something from the other person, but the other person is always running away. He values the relationship but does not want to chase. However, he does not want to lose the connection with the person, and he thinks that both of them know too much about each other. In the end, Russ wants to scoop the other person, and they'll ride slow together.


Overall, the song is about taking a leisurely drive and having some alone time with the person he's thinking of. Russ's subtle message is about valuing the person he's thinking of, wanting to communicate it, and enjoying the moment of riding slowly.
