[Verse 1]
I know what's wrong, I know what's right
I see the truth, but I stay blind
I say I'm fine, but I know there's no hope inside
Can't even take my own advice
Even though you've been showing signs
Maybe you go your way and so will I

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm sitting in a car that I won't start
Maybe I got too much to say right now
Like I'm paralyzed from the waist down
Why is it so hard?

[Chorus]
'Cause every time I try to leave
Something keep pulling me back
Every time I try to leave
Something keep pulling me back
I know, I know better
But something just won't let up, let up
Every time I try to leave
Something keep pulling me back
Yeah

[Verse 2]
Was it a fight we never had?
Was there a good in all the bad?
Is it enough for me to never want to come back? Oh yeah
Maybe I'm running from a truth
But baby, I blame it all on you
It's really me, but all my pride would never say that

So I'm sitting in a car that I won't start (Won't start)
Maybe I got nothing to say right now
Like I'm paralyzed from the waist down
Why is it so hard?

[Chorus]
'Cause every time I try to leave
Something keep pulling me back
Every time I try to leave
Something keep pulling me back
I know, I know better (Better)
But something just won't let up, let up
Every time I try to leave
Something keep pulling me back

[Outro]
Every time I try to leave
Something keep pulling me back
Telling me I need you in my life
Mmm, yeah
Every time I try to leave
Something keep pulling me back
Telling me I need you in my life
Need you in my life

H.E.R is an acronym for the phrase Having Everything Revealed, which is used as a moniker by Gabriella Wilson. The singer, who is signed to RCA Records was known for keeping her real identity under

“The mystery is a metaphor of who I am, of who I was at the time of creating the project. I feel like oftentimes we don’t like to be open as people about out emotions or things that we are going through. At the time [of recording], I was very closed off except for when I was writing or when I was in the studio.”

First showing up on the scene at SoundCloud when she dropped her first EP in 2016, H.E.R., Vol 1, followed up with H.E.R., Vol. 2. Her music is mixed with inspirations of R&B, hip-hop, and soul.
