It was slated to be the second single, but its release was cancelled in favor of "Heartbreaker". Initially, the song was released via airplay on many European radio stations in October 2007, and subsequently, it was released to US radio. The song was co-written by Fernando Garibay, and was released in the UK on 25 August 2008. It was believed that Nicole Scherzinger was originally due to feature on the track, as in the first verse, will.i.am raps "You want a good nigga to stickwitu", in reference to the Pussycat Dolls song "Stickwitu". The music video for "One More Chance" premiered on Bubble Hits on 31 July 2008. It features will.i.am walking through a town manipulating the scenery around him with his hands to win his ex's favour and give him "one more chance". On August 31, 2008, the song entered the UK Singles Chart at #97.

“... every experience in life enriches one’s background and should teach valuable lessons.”
