Ruby Rider

Guess what, fuckers?? I've never coded anything before. So do you know how FUCKing difficult it was for me to write that itsy-bitsy little quote up there ↑? I struggled with that for AN HOUR. And guess what else? The solution? Exceedingly simple. An hour. Wasted. It's not even how I wanted it to look. I don't even know how to center it on the page. I paint. And I'm pretty good at calligraphy. But this shit? never doing this again, not what I was built for.

Anyway, moral of the story is that this one has no jokes, because I'm so mad at myself and this goddamn website. No Jokes. Okay let's go.

"Ruby Rider" is a song from Steven Universe, a cartoon that aired on Cartoon Network from the years of 2013 to 2020. The song was a part of episode 21 of the 5th season, titled "The Question." In which, the character of Ruby, unfuses from her fusion and life partner, Sapphire, after an argument. She is inspired by cowboy legends, and goes on an adventure with Steven, Amethyst, and Greg Universe to embody the lone cowboy archetype. This is the song that occurs during this expedition.

The song is sung by Ruby's voice actor Charlyne Yi, with backup vocals from the voices of Steven, Amethyst, and Greg. These being Zach Callison, Michaela Dietz, and Tom Scharpling. The music credits go to Music by Jeff Liu, Stemage, and Surasshu with the lyrics being written by Music by Jeff Liu.

Lyrics
This ol' Ruby rider

Is Ruby ridin' alone

She's a sturdy

Solitary stone

This ol' Ruby rider

Not a fusion no more

Now the dirt and the dust

And the danger is my new home

I used to think I

Would always be by your side

But lately you’ve been rather cold

One look in your eye

Could make an honest Gem cry

But Ruby Rider don’t need no one to hold

This ol’ Ruby rider

Is Ruby ridin’ alone

She’s a sturdy

Solitary stone

Yee haw
