Mo' Keb' Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tell me am I wrong, well, fallin' in love with you
While your other man was out there
Cheatin' and lyin', steppin' all over you
Look at you
Tell me am I wrong, holdin' on to you so tight
Tell me am I wrong, (get your groove on brother)holdin' on to you so tight
He'd better be ready, ready for a long long fight
I gotta be strong, well I know you're dependin' on me
Yeah, yeah I gotta be strong, 'cause I know you're dependin' on me
To give you all of my attention
All of my time, and all of the love you need
What next?
Am I wrong, yeah yeah, tryin' to hold on to you (tryin' to hold on to you)
Tell me if I am wrong, yeah, tryin' to hold on to you
I just wanna make a home for you baby
And all of your children too
All of your children too
Tell me, tell me, tell me, am I fallin' in love with you
While your other man cheatin' and steppin' all over
Am I wrong, fallin' in love with you
While your other man was out there
Cheatin' and lyin', steppin' all over you
While your other man was out there
Cheatin' and lyin', steppin' all over you
Mo' Keb''s song "I Was Wrong" is a love song about a man who is falling in love with a woman who is being mistreated by her other man. The singer questions himself whether it is wrong to be falling in love with her while her other man is cheating and stepping all over her. The singer is deeply in love with her and wants to hold her tight, make a home for her, and take care of her and her children. The singer knows that the woman is depending on him, and therefore, he has to be strong, give her all his attention, time, and love.
The song is not only about love but also about the strength and determination to protect the person you love. The singer is fully aware of the other man's actions and intentions, but he is still willing to fight for the woman he loves. The repetition of the phrase "am I wrong" emphasizes the singer's uncertainty about his feelings, yet he is willing to take the risk of falling in love with her. The song's message is a testament to the power of love and dedication in the face of hardship.
