Lyrics

I been in the right place but it must have been the wrong time

I've been in a favorable situation, but it seems the timing was not right.

I'd have said the right thing but I must have used the wrong line

I intended to say the correct things, but my choice of words may have been inappropriate.

I been in the right trip but I must have used the wrong car

I've experienced a positive journey, but the vehicle I chose was not suitable.

My head was in a bad place and I'm wondering what it's good for

My mental state was negative, and I question its purpose or benefit.

I been the right place but it must have been the wrong time

Again, I found myself in a beneficial situation, but the timing might have been wrong.

My head was in a bad place but I'm having such a good time

Despite my mind being in a troubled state, I'm enjoying myself.


I been running trying to get hung up in my mind

I've been actively pursuing something, trying to untangle my thoughts.

Got to give myself a good talking-to this time

I need to have a serious conversation with myself to address issues.

Just need a little brain salad surgery

A metaphorical expression suggesting a need for mental rejuvenation or healing.

Got to cure this insecurity

There's a need to overcome feelings of insecurity.


I been in the wrong place but it must have been the right time

I found myself in an unfavorable location, but the timing was surprisingly right.

I been in the right place but it must have been the wrong song

Although I was in the right place, the choice of music or expression may have been incorrect.

I been in the right vein but it seems like the wrong arm

I was in the right emotional state, but it seems the action or approach was incorrect.

I been in the right world but it seems wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong

I was in the right world, but everything seemed to be wrong.


Slipping dodging sneaking creeping hiding out down the street

Describing a process of avoiding or evading difficulties and challenges.

See me life shaking with every ho' I meet

Life is tumultuous, shaking with every encounter.

Refried confusion is making itself clear

Confusion, perhaps from past experiences, is becoming clear or evident.

Wonder which way do I go to get on out of here

Expressing a sense of being lost and wondering about the right direction to take.


I been in the right place but it must have been the wrong time

Similar to line 1, reiterating being in the right place but with questionable timing.

I'd have said the right thing but I must have used the wrong line

Repeating the idea of saying the right things but using the wrong words.

I'd have took the right road but I must have took a wrong turn

Suggesting a choice of a path that was intended to be correct but turned out to be wrong.

Would've made the right move but I made it at the wrong time

Reflecting on a decision that could have been right in different circumstances.

I been on the right road but I must have used the wrong car

Acknowledging being on the right path but using the wrong means or methods.

My head was in a good place and I wonder what it's bad for

Paradoxically, being in a positive mental state but questioning its purpose.
