Russ Can’t Get This Right

“Can’t Get This Right” is a melodic, emotive, and classic-sounding effort from the 30-year-old. While the track is about a relationship coming to an end despite both sides’ efforts, it’s not really a downer. For example, the high-pitched vocal samples in the background give the track a positive, chipmunk-soul energy. Also, the crisp and steady R&B beat will make you bob your head regardless of whether you relate to the heartbroken lyrics. In terms of Russ’s performance, he maintains a light and confident middle register as he switches between the sung chorus and melodic verses. Still, it contrasts his expressions and reflections on this track, indicating a painful and yearning end to a crumbling relationship.

Lyrics

[Chorus]
Can’t get this right, a thousand tries in, yeah
Won’t hit me back, I guess I’m vibin’, yeah
What are we doin’, why we fightin? Yeah
Girl are you runnin’, are you ridin? Yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don’t wanna be alone
But maybe we should go
‘Cause we can’t get this right, we can’t get this right, no

[Verse 1]
Fussin’ and fightin’, we barely gettin’ our words in
Somethin’ needs changin’, ’cause lately this isn’t workin’
So many good days, we ruined by all our bad nights
It isn’t you, it isn’t me, we both don’t act right
We both know what to do, but pride is in the way-way
We both obsessed with bein’ right, can’t walk away-way
And everytime wе fight, we question the rеlationship
We don’t know if we makin’ it
It feels like ain’t no savin’ it

[Chorus]
Can’t get this right, a thousand tries in, yeah
Won’t hit me back, I guess I’m vibin’, yeah
What are we doin’, why we fightin? Yeah
Girl are you runnin’, are you ridin? Yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don’t wanna be alone
But maybe we should go
‘Cause we can’t get this right, we can’t get this right, no

[Verse 2]
Are we in love, or just attached, is it a mixture?
Don’t wanna have to start deletin’ all our pictures
Don’t wanna lose you but it’s maybe for the best though
If we gon’ do it, then let’s do it, baby let’s go-oh
We had a run, it was a good one, yeah we learned a lot
I love you and you love me but this shit ain’t really workin’ out
Of course we wanna stay but we both at our breakin’ point
We drained from tryna make our point
It escalates, we raise our voice

[Chorus]
Can’t get this right, a thousand tries in, yeah
Won’t hit me back, I guess I’m vibin’, yeah
What are we doin’, why we fightin? Yeah
Girl are you runnin’, are you ridin? Yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don’t wanna be alone
But maybe we should go
‘Cause we can’t get this right, we can’t get this right, no
Can’t get this right, a thousand tries in, yeah
Won’t hit me back, I guess I’m vibin’, yeah
What are we doin’, why we fightin? Yeah
Girl are you runnin’, are you ridin? Yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don’t wanna be alone
But maybe we should go
‘Cause we can’t get this right, we can’t get this right, no
