Every time I try to leave
Something keeps pulling me back, me back
Telling me I need you in my life
Every time I try to go
Something keeps telling me that, me that
Everything gon' be all right
Every time I try to leave
Something keeps pulling me back, me back
Telling me I need you in my life
It was meant to be, you were meant for me
So that means we gotta make it work
It was all good at first, spending money, going shopping
Eating at the finest restaurants and if I'm club hopping
She was right there wit me, bottle popping, living that life
She just didn't understand my lifestyle and that I ain't like
We didn't have a worry in the world, gotcha diamonds, gotcha pearls
But I can't help it if Chinga-ling be attracting all the girls
Say what? Baby, I'ma superstar and that come with it
Got a good nigga on your side, you betta run wit it
Even though I'm on the road doing shows
I made time for me and her, relationship to grow
They tell me don't trust a woman in this industry
But she not any woman, more like a sacred friend to me
'Cuz when I'm outta town, always think of her
Might conversate with some chicks but no one come above her
I thought I was ya man, guess you ain't understand
And now I'm sitting here, looking crazy like damn
Every time I try to leave
Something keeps pulling me back, me back
Telling me I need you in my life
Every time I try to go
Something keeps telling me that, me that
Everything gon' be all right
Every time I try to leave
Something keeps pulling me back, me back
Telling me I need you in my life
It was meant to be, you were meant for me
So that means we gotta make it work
Walk in the house with hard work, my head hurt
Instead of arguing, can I have dinner with some dessert? Uh uh
She talking 'bout this phone number she found
Ain't gimme time to put my bags down, she straight up clowning
Before we end up fighting, let me leave
I'm exhausted and this here, I don't need
Now I'm with the fellaz, riding and drinking
She blowing my two-way up but I need some time for thinking
Yeah, I wanna go back, but something sayin' naw
Lemme give her some space and the next day, I might call
What should I do? Look, lemme ask y'all
Should I stand tall or let this relationship fall?
I ain't down wit having my feelings crushed
But it happens sometimes, either love it or give it up
I thought I was your man, guess you ain't understand
And now I'm sitting here, looking crazy like damn
Every time I try to leave
Something keeps pulling me back, me back
Telling me I need you in my life
Every time I try to go
Something keeps telling me that, me that
Everything gon' be all right
Every time I try to leave
Something keeps pulling me back, me back
Telling me I need you in my life
It was meant to be, you were meant for me
So that means we gotta make it work
To all the fellaz, know you feel me, you ever had a woman
Good times led to bad times and you ain't see it coming
Tried your best to make her happy but it wasn't enough
'Cause Mama told me in relationships, the road get rough
And I ain't the one to have my head down, weeping, stressed out
As bad as it hurts, I gotta move to the next route, yes
I thought I was her man, guess she ain't understand
And now she sitting there, looking crazy like damn
Every time I try to leave
Something keeps pulling me back, me back
Telling me I need you in my life
Every time I try to go
Something keeps telling me that, me that
Everything gon' be all right
Every time I try to leave
Something keeps pulling me back, me back
Telling me I need you in my life
It was meant to be, you were meant for me
