Lyrics 👇

[0:00–0:10]
Instrumental intro only — no vocals

[0:10–0:50] Verse 1
One time — that I know, rollin' slow on the ave
I don’t know who they searchin’ for, but they pointin’ at the slab
"Hands up!" — now they searchin' my coat
Talkin’ 'bout dope, tryna plant me a note

They ask what I know 'bout my homies on blow
I said, “I don’t talk — now let me go”
One time, when I go, I'ma ride with pride
But that rookie tried to frame me on a robbery slide

Said I fit the look, said I fit the scene
But all I ever did was stay clean and lean
Tryna put chains on a man they don’t know
That’s why my heart beat cold, and my voice stay low

[0:50–1:20] Hook 1
One time, and I go — that’s the way it feel
Crooked eyes on me when I’m keepin’ it real
They don’t see the truth, just the tone of my skin
Tryna lock me up ‘fore the night begin

One time, and I go — I don’t bend, don’t break
Can’t take the soul, can’t fake what’s fake
If I roll, then I roll with the truth I hold
One time, when I go — I ride with soul

[1:20–2:00] Verse 2
Same street, same scene — just another day
They watchin’ my whip like I’m movin’ yay
But all I got is beats and a faded dream
Tryna make peace, not make a scene

They said my face was in a sketch on file
I just laughed, said, “That ain’t my style”
But when you're brown in a chrome ride slow
You guilty 'fore you even say hello

I got pulled, got pressed, got slammed and tried
But I stood tall, never dropped my pride
They say freedom's free, but it come with heat
In the land of the brave, still duckin' police

[2:00–2:30] Hook 2
One time, and I go — that’s the way it feel
Crooked eyes on me when I’m keepin’ it real
They don’t see the truth, just the tone of my skin
Tryna lock me up ‘fore the night begin

One time, and I go — I don’t bend, don’t break
Can’t take the soul, can’t fake what’s fake
If I roll, then I roll with the truth I hold
One time, when I go — I ride with soul

[2:30–3:00] Bridge
One time... mmm...
Who they chasin’? It ain’t me
Another name, another frame
But I still ride free...

[3:00–3:40] Final Hook
One time, and I go — no lookin’ back
Heart still beatin’, but it’s under attack
Say the word, and I’ll drift on slow
But I’m takin' my pride everywhere I go

One time, no rewind — just you and me
Truth in my voice, pain in my key
If I roll, I roll on soul
One time… when I go...

[3:40–3:58]
Instrumental only — fade out
No vocals — clean ending under 4:00
