Caught Up
Chubb Rock & Howie Tee Lyrics

I'm the kind of brotha'
I am the type of man who has always done things my way.

Who been doin' it my way
I have always done things the way that I wanted to do them.

Gettin' my bread for years
I have made a lot of money over the years.

In my career
Through my professional life.

And every lover
All the people I have been romantically involved with.

In and out my life
Who have come in and out of my life.

I hear love and left the tears
I have caused pain and made people cry because I never cared for them.

Without a care
Without any feelings or concern.

Until I met this girl who turned the tables around
But then, I met a girl who changed things for me.

She caught me by surprise
She surprised me with her effect on me.

I never thought I'd be the one breaking down
I never expected to be the one who would feel so emotionally overwhelmed.

I can't figure it out why
I am confused and cannot understand why I feel this way.

Got me feelin' it, caught up
She has me feeling trapped and unable to think clearly.

I don't know what it is
I can't put my finger on what exactly she's doing to me.

But it seems she's got me twisted
But it feels like she has me wrapped around her little finger.

I'm losin' control, this girls got a hold on me
I am losing my grip on my life, and she's the one in control.

Let me go baby
I want to break free from her hold on me.

My momma told me
My mother warned me.

Be careful who you do 'cause karma comes back around
Be mindful of who you engage with in relationships because what goes around comes around.

Same ol' song
It's a common cautionary tale.

But I was so sure
But I was confident in myself to avoid any negative consequences.

That it wouldn't happen to me
I was convinced that I would not experience any negative consequences no matter what I did.

'cause I know how to put it down
Because I am confident in my ability to handle everything.

This girl was mean
This girl was very challenging for me to deal with.

She really turned me out
She was able to get through to me and change me in a way that no one else could.

Her body was so tight
She was very attractive physically.

I'm lookin' for her in the daytime with a flashlight
I am obsessed with her to the point where I am looking for her at all times even in broad daylight.

My homies say this girl is crampin' my style
My friends think that this girl is limiting my ability to be independent and do what I want.

Really feelin' it, caught up
I am truly affected and trapped by her.

I'm so, caught up
I am completely stuck and overwhelmed.

I'm, caught up
I am trapped.
