Right Here
Chris Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who found who? Girl we may never know
It's enough knowing that I won't lose my way
But getting here wasn't easy
We bend, don't break that's the story of us
No give or take, didn't get me nowhere
I've learned from the hurt along the way
I'm taking every road under the sun
Every dead-end love brought another one
I should be fuming at all the time we wasted
But a million wrongs lead me right to, right to you
Right here, I'm right here with you
Yes right here, so right here with you
Right here, I'm right here with you
Yes right here, so right here with you
We've got scars
Some of them you gave me, some of them I caused
That doesn't matter now
We both know the worst part is over
Ain't no letting go, letting go
We bend, don't break that's the story of us
No give or take, didn't get me nowhere
I've learned from the hurt along the way
And it brought me right to you babe
I'm taking every road under the sun
Every dead-end love brought another one
I should be fuming at all the time we wasted
But a million wrongs lead me right to, right to you
Right here, I'm right here with you
Yes right here, so right here with you
Right here, I'm right here with you
Yes right here, so right here with you
Hearts allowed cautious raising on broken pavement
Going nowhere fast, still we stay on the gas
Love don't ride easy and it ain't always pretty
Yeah I know 'cause I've taken every road
Taking every road under the sun
Every dead-end love brought another one
I should be fuming at all the time we wasted
But a million wrongs lead me right to, right to you
Right here, I'm right here with you
Yes right here, so right here with you
Right here, I'm right here with you
Yes right here, so right here with you

I think Chris is never going to be over her and she’ll always be there deep in his heart because he knows he did her wrong and that she deserved better than how he did her. She stood by him during his legal battles, all the cheating, and him publicly saying he’s in love with 2 people at the same time. The pregnancy is just what broke the camel’s back. Not a lot of women can handle all of that and Karrueche did with grace. God bless them both.
