Ride
Young Buck Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It is what it is, Lets ride nigga, Yea!!
What you niggas know about, slippin they clips in AK's
I'm talkin bout hittin niggas blocks

[Verse 1]
I'm wipin down my bullets with my bandana hidden behind tips
The beef bout to be handled nigga gimme bout 5 minutes
I'm prayin ain't no kids out playin today
'cause I ain't tryna see no babies gettin hit with a stray
So if ya enemy is hidin home then turn off ya lights
Then throw this bitch in bar, we gettin out tonight
I wanna look him in his eyes before he die
Some niggas get away when the shells start to fly
We gonn' make sure anybody out there breathin gonn' be bleedin
Everybody out there leakin then we leavin
We get away, car parked in a dark alley
Just cut up through the yard, hop a fence then we at it
We off to the next block, catch me if you can
Gunpowder on my shirt and some blood on my hands
Never thought I'd see the day that I'd be killin me a man
This here for 50's enemies to make em understand that

[Chorus]
Even tho we killed one and we ain't done yet
We ridin on these muthafuckas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how I do
This just a lil somethin you can let off ya glock to
Even tho we killed one and we ain't done yet
We ridin on these muthafuckas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how I do
This just a lil somethin you can let off ya chopper to

[Verse 2]
Clip in the Smith & Wesson
And I done been shot but I ain't learn my lesson
I bought me some band-aids and hand grenades
And I'd pull the pin and throw it where ya family stay
This the hood muthafucka not Sandro Pay
You hear the police sirens all god damn day
We huntin for our prey, if we see em we eat em
And fuck the D.A., they ain't takin my freedom
So when you make this turn, ima let off this thang
Retaliating on them bitches like Hugh did Kane
Insane, I'm the black John Wayne
With a chrome Fo-Fo, put a hole in ya frame
Detectives found em with his watch and his chain
And some money in his pocket, a bullet in his brain
Never thought I'd see the day that I'd be killin me a man
This here for Yayo enemies to make em understand what I'm sayin is

[Chorus ]
Even tho we killed one and we ain't done yet
We ridin on these muthafuckas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how I do
This just a lil somethin you let ya fo-five off to
Even tho we killed one and we ain't done yet
We ridin on these muthafuckas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how I do
This just a lil somethin you let ya 12-gauge off to

[Verse 3]
I'd be lyin if I say I wasn't nervous the first time
But thinkin how they shot my cousin, I just bust mine
Hard people glance, glock under my waist
This big fat ass officer ain't gonn' win this chase
I'm paranoid but I got away clean
And I don't be havin all them nightmare dreams
They say I have no conscience, my heart just cold
'cause I don't try to squash it, ya boy just roll
We hold niggas hostage, ya kid now hosed
The news to this game man we play how it goes
The feds know my name so I stay on the low
Every murder that go down they knockin at my door
Gotta know what you doin and how to shuffle it out
And once the homie go do it he gotta muzzle his mouth
I never thought I'd see the day that I'd be killin me a man
This here for Banks enemies to make em understand what I'm sayin is

[Chorus ]
Even tho we killed one and we ain't done yet
We ridin on these muthafuckas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how I do
This just a lil somethin you let ya Tec 9 off to
Even tho we killed one and we ain't done yet
We ridin on these muthafuckas soon as the sun set




Gangsta with it, homie you know how I do
This just a lil somethin you let ya .40 Cal off to

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Young Buck's song "Ride" are about gang violence and retaliation. The singer of the song seems to be a member of a gang who is seeking revenge for a previous attack by another gang. The lyrics describe how the gang plans to carry out their revenge by driving to the enemy's block, shooting anyone who gets in their way, and then escaping into the night. The singer appears to be conflicted about the violence they are about to commit, hoping that no children get hurt and expressing surprise at what they are doing. The chorus repeats the theme of revenge and the gang's willingness to ride out and continue the violence.


The song is a commentary on the reality of gang violence, and the consequences that it has on communities. It depicts a world where violence is an accepted form of retribution and where death is seen as a necessary part of gang life. The lyrics are graphic and brutal, and they depict a world where people are killed without remorse. The song serves as a warning about the dangers of gang life and the cycle of violence that it perpetuates.
