Overall Meaning

In "So Right It Ain't Right," Chris Brown addresses the complications that arise when he's in love with a woman who is not good for him. He opens the song by admitting that he's got a problem with her, but he can't resist her either. She's not fair to him and doesn't seem to realize the power she has over him. He struggles with the conflict between wanting to claim her and knowing she is not the right choice for him.

Brown discusses the difficulties of trying to control his emotions when she's around. He can't keep his cool and forgets about his friends when she's in the picture. He can't stop himself from wanting her, despite the fact that it's not right for him. Brown ends with the question of what he's supposed to do when he can't resist her.

The lyrics imply that Brown is caught up in a toxic relationship with a woman who is not worth his time but he can't help the way he feels. He's conflicted and caught up in his emotions and has a hard time seeing the reality of the situation.
