Caught Up
DJ Mast ft Usher & Fabolous Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm the kind of brother
Who been doing it my way, getting my way for years
In my career
And every lover
In and out my life, I've hit, love, then left in tears
Without a care

Until I met this girl who turned the tables around
She caught me by surprise
I never thought I'd be the one breaking down
I can't figure it out, why

I'm so (caught up)
Got me feeling it (caught up)
I don't know what it is
But it seems she's got me twisted
I'm so (caught up)
Got me feeling it (caught up)
I'm losing control
This girl's got a hold on me, yeah

Let me go, baby
Now, listen

My mama told me
Be careful who you do 'cause karma comes back around
Same old song
But I was so sure
That it wouldn't happen to me 'cause I know how to put it down
But I was so wrong

This girl was mean, she really turned me out
Her body was so tight, I'm looking for her in the daytime with a flashlight
My homies say this girl is cramping my style
And I can't figure it out, but

I'm so (caught up)
Got me feeling it (caught up)
I don't know what it is
But it seems she's got me twisted
I'm so (caught up)
Got me feeling it (caught up)
I'm losing control
This girl's got a hold
I'm so (caught up)
Really feeling it (caught up)
I don't know what it is
But it seems she's got me twisted
I'm so (caught up)
Really feeling it (caught up)
I'm losing control
This girl's got a hold on me

And I think I like it baby
Oh no, oh no
Oh, yeah
Oh my, oh my
Oh (if you pimpin', pop a bottle to this)

This girl was mean, she really turned me out
Yeah yeah, yeah, sugar
My homies say this girl is cramping my style

I'm so (caught up)
I'm feeling it, yeah (caught up)
I don't know what it is
But it seems she's got me twisted
I'm so (caught up)
Really feeling it (caught up)
I'm losing control
This girl's got a hold
I'm so (caught up)
I'm so (caught up)
I don't know what it is
But it seems she's got me twisted
I'm (caught up)
Really feeling it (caught up)




I'm losing control
This girl's got a hold on me

Overall Meaning

In "Caught Up," DJ Mast ft Usher & Fabolous explore the experience of being deeply infatuated with someone to the point of losing control and feeling twisted. The lyrics express the singer's realization that they have always been in control of their relationships and love life. They have been accustomed to being the one who leaves others heartbroken, without any care for their feelings. However, everything changes when they meet this one girl who turns their world around. This girl caught them by surprise and now they find themselves in uncharted territory, where they are the ones breaking down emotionally. The singer is unable to figure out why they are so caught up in their feelings for this girl.


The song touches upon the concept of karma and how it comes back around. The singer's mother warned them to be careful about who they choose to be with because their actions have consequences.
