Puth initially signed with the record label eleveneleven after performing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, while songwriting and producing for other artists. With primary intent on a solo career, Atlantic Records and Artist Partner Group eventually sought the artist and released his debut single, "Marvin Gaye" (featuring Meghan Trainor), in 2015. His next single and first feature, "See You Again", which he co-wrote, co-produced, and performed with Atlantic label-mate Wiz Khalifa for the Furious 7 soundtrack as a tribute to actor Paul Walker. It peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 for 12 non-consecutive weeks. After the success of "See You Again", he gained worldwide recognition for multiple subsequent releases, including his next single, "One Call Away". The single reached number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Puth's debut studio album, Nine Track Mind, was released in January 2016 to moderate commercial success. The album was preceded by the singles "One Call Away" and "We Don't Talk Anymore" (featuring Selena Gomez), which peaked at number 12 and number 9 respectively on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2017, he released two songs, "Attention" and "How Long", with the former peaking at number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. Both were included on his second studio album, Voicenotes (2018), with ameliorated critical reception and a peak of number 4 on the Billboard 200. In 2019, Puth released the singles "I Warned Myself", "Mother" and "Cheating on You". The following year, Puth released singles "Girlfriend" and "Hard on Yourself". After deciding not to put these songs on his next album and scrapping what other songs he had written for it in early 2020, Puth released "Light Switch" in January 2022 as the lead single of his upcoming third studio album Charlie, which is scheduled for a 2022 release. "Light Switch" peaked at number 27 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album's second single, "That's Hilarious", was released in April 2022.

Charlie Puth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm down on all my luck
Sometimes there's no one there by your side
I don't deserve this, baby
But I know I can't give up
Tough times, I'll just take them in stride
Mmm, I'm almost there, only one more step
Mmm, I'm moving on, I got no regrets
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
I said times are changin'
Tell me, how can I keep up?
Every time that I turn around, there's a wall
But I'm climbing daily until I see the top
And I get up right after every fall
When you're brokenhearted and you're lost without me
Yeah, you gotta walk alone, yeah, it's true
Flash every smile 'cause I've been lost for miles
'Cause, yeah, I know you've felt this way before too
Mmm, we're almost there, baby, one more step
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Mmm, we're moving on, we got no regrets
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Whoa, we're almost there, only one more step
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Mmm, I know it looks like it's too far
But it's nothing compared to how far we've come
Walking down this boulevard
When the darkest times come right before the sun
We're almost there, baby, one more step
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
We're movin' forward and there's no regrets
Whoa, left, right, left, right
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Whoa, we're almost there, only one more step
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
Whoa, we're almost there, only one more step
Whoa, left, right, left, right, left
The song "Left Right Left" by Charlie Puth is a motivational anthem about perseverance in the face of adversity. The lyrics describe the hardships that the singer has been facing lately, including feelings of isolation and being undeserving. However, despite these challenges, the singer resolves to keep moving forward and take each day in stride.
The chorus, which repeats the phrase "left, right, left, right, left," is a clear allusion to marching or walking, suggesting that the journey ahead will require determination and persistence. The lyrics also express a sense of camaraderie, as the singer sings about being with someone who has felt the same way and knows the struggle of walking alone. Ultimately, the message of the song is one of hope and resilience, urging listeners to keep moving forward and stay positive even in the darkest of times.
