This song is about her struggle to not to let an old habit back in her life. This is about her then-fiance Robert “Big Bert” Smith.
[Verse 1]
Should anybody ask for me
Tell 'em I'll be right back
In a real short time
It's just that I lost my mind
I gotta find it
Once I hop on my train of thought
I'll get back here, pronto
To collect myself
There's really nothing you can do to help
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I see you
I'm reminded of every time we did it (Yeah, yeah)
All those other women (Yeah, yeah)
Every time you lied to me
Said you only had eyes for me (Eyes for me)
(I don't wanna...)
[Chorus]
Don't wanna lose my focus
But it's bound to leave (Yes it is)
Every time you come runnin' into me (You come runnin', runnin')
All we used to be
Shouldn't even matter to me
Don't wanna lose my focus
But it's bound to leave
Every time you come runnin' into me
All we used to be
Shouldn't even matter to me
(Don't wanna lose my focus)
[Verse 2]
But it's too late now
'Cause I'm reminded
I wanna put it behind
But I'm behind it
Lord knows I'm tired
As much as I'd love to join you
On planet Earth right now
I know that I'm too hurt
Right now to be civilized
So I'ma need this time alone
'Cause it won't be long
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I see you
I'm reminded of every time we did it
All those other women
Every time you lied to me
Said you only had eyes for me
(I don't wanna...)
[Chorus]
Don't wanna lose my focus
But it's bound to leave
Every time you come runnin' into me
All we used to be
Shouldn't even matter to me (Doesn't even matter)
Don't wanna lose my focus
But it's bound to leave
Every time you come runnin' into me (hey baby)
All we used to be
Shouldn't even matter to me
[Bridge]
Oh, I'll be back
Lost my way
Got off track
Please try to understand
I used to love you, man
Oh, I'll be back
Lost my way
Got off track
Please try to understand
I used to love you, man
[Chorus]
(I can't lose it) Don't wanna lose my focus
But it's bound to leave (No)
Every time you come runnin' into me (You come runnin' into me)
All we used to be (Oh)
Shouldn't even matter to me (Shouldn't even matter)
Don't wanna lose my focus (Bound to leave)
But it's bound to leave (Yeah)
Every time you come runnin' into me
All we used to be
Shouldn't even matter to me
[Outro]
Don't wanna lose my focus
But it's bound to leave
Every time you come runnin' into me
All we used to be
Shouldn't even matter to me
Don't wanna lose my focus
But it's bound to leave
Every time you come runnin' into me
All we used to be
Shouldn't even matter to me
Don't wanna lose my focus
Focus was written by Candice Nelson & Walter Millsap III & Isaac Phillip & Timbaland.
Focus was produced by Timbaland.
“Focus” is one of my favorite songs ever. I feel like I was in a different place. Timbaland is also one of my favorite producers of all time, and I really wanted to work with him. So we really created a different type of vibe. Timb just showed out on that song
