Right Back Here

Temptation's got me doing the wrong thing
And I want to do right by my baby girl 'cause I know she deserves it
But something's always pulling me back, me back
I'm making the same mistakes all over again (No)

I'm digging myself a grave, making a bigger hole
Where all my skeletons are making their own
And if it gets out, I know that it's over
So when will I close all of these doors?

Every time I tell myself I'm going to change
I end up right back here, I end up right back here
And every time I say I'm getting out of the game
I end up right back here, I end up right back here
It's like the more I try to change, the more I stay the same
I'm trying to find my place but it's driving me insane
Every time I tell myself I'm going to change
I end up right back here, it's like I'll always end up right here

I'm sitting here trying to figure out what I'm gon' do
All this back and forward ain't cool
Tired of making her play the fool
It's about the thousandth time and she's heard the same story
And I know she's tired of hearing it 'cause I'm tired of telling it

Man, oh
I don't want to break her heart no more
But I don't know what to do
If I leave her, she'll be crushed
But if I keep on messing up,
Man I'm gon lose my baby anyways

Every time I tell myself I'm going to change
I end up right back here, I end up right back here
And every time I say I'm getting out of the game
I end up right back here, I end up right back here
It's like the more I try to change, the more I stay the same
I'm trying to find my place but it's driving me insane
Every time I tell myself I'm going to change
I end up right back here, it's like I'll always end up right here

Baby tell me what to do, I don't really want to leave
But the leave is temporary, cause me staying is really scary
I can't keep chipping at your heart, soon it's gonna fall apart
And I'm sure you don't understand it, but I'm setting the next plans
Now would you feel much better off if I was to walk out the door
Don't want to cause you anymore frustration than I had before
Cause this time I'll be a man about it and go
Need to find out where my heart is at cause I don't know no more
(Ohhh)

Every time I tell myself I'm going to change
I end up right back here, I end up right back here
And every time I say I'm getting out of the game
I end up right back here, I end up right back here
It's like the more I try to change, the more I stay the same
I'm trying to find my place but it's driving me insane
Every time I tell myself I'm going to change
I end up right back here, it's like I'll always end up right here
