Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You must regret the day that you left me
(Uh huh he don't deserve you(deserve you) he gunna regret that he hurt you (hurt you)) x2

Letoya!

I made your cool
You wasent that dude until I started with you.
I gave you swagg
In a duffle bag
You left the best you had
Now you gunna act like that

I got you right
I changed your life
Suicide doors I consigned
Gucci rags, Louis travel bags
You left the best you had
Baby dont look so mad

[Chorus]
You must regret the day that you left me.
You must regret the day that you left me.
Still tryna get back(get back)
Still tryna get back(back back) with me ohhh
Still tryna get back(get back)
Still tryna get back(back back)with me ohh.

V.I.P was all on me
Now your at the bar with one or two drinks
Popping game
You look so lame
Without me your pimpin ain't the same

First class flights
Dipped in ice
I had your neck and wrist
Oh so bright
Poppin tags
Is a thing of the past
You lost everything you had
Chasin them scallywags

[Chorus]

Ludacris Raps:
Hey sexy
Tell em that its over
Tell em you ma baby
And my coop is ya stroller
Tell em that louis vuitton scarf is ya bib
Or that you call me daddy and my house is ya crib
And if he cries I know how to control that
Give some bottles of this conjure cognac
Just to shut him up
She said you wasent half the man I am so I guess she had to double up
He still tryna get back like the soldiers dreamin that its time to wake em up like folgers
I just hold her
You use to put a load her
shit up on her brain but you lame now its over
I keep her by mi side like a holster
I plan to make a full house and I anit talkin bout poker
But I might poke her
And just stroke her
Cuz imma bout to treat her like a real man suppose to.
Ludaaaa!





[Chorus x2]

Overall Meaning

The song "Regret" by LeToya featuring Ludacris is a breakup anthem full of swagger and confidence. In the song, LeToya calls out her ex-boyfriend for leaving her and for not being able to keep up with her lifestyle after she helped him become someone. LeToya boasts about the luxurious life she provided for her ex-boyfriend, such as Gucci rags, Louis travel bags and suicide doors, and how he left the best he had behind.


The chorus repeatedly emphasizes how much her ex-boyfriend must regret leaving her, as he is still trying to get back with her without any success. Ludacris joins in the song with his verse, where he tells LeToya's ex that he is not even half of the man that Ludacris is and that he has no chance of getting back with her. Ludacris suggests that LeToya's ex calls him "daddy," and that he would give him liquor to shut him up.


Despite the hurtful words and accusations from LeToya and Ludacris, the song Regret is an empowering song about moving on from a failed relationship and finding new love that will treat the singer better. The song celebrates the independence, confidence, and strength of the singer as she walks away from someone who could not appreciate her worth.
