Confessions Lyrics by USHER

Confessions (20th Anniversary Edition)

2024

[Intro]
\nYou love me? (Oooh ooh)
\nUnconditionally? (Oooh oh ooh)
\nSay you'll never leave me (Ooh oh ooh)
\nNo matter what (Ooh oh oh oh-ooh)
\n(Ooh oh-ooh)
\nWell, I have a confession (Ooh oh ooh)
\n(Ooh oh oh oh-ooh ooh oh ooh I)
\n(Ooh oh oh oh-ooh, ooh oh ooh)
\n(Ooh oh oh oh-ooh, ooh oh ooh I)
\n(Ooh oh oh oh-ooh, ooh oh ooh I)
\n(Ooh oh oh oh-ooh, ooh oh ooh I)
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nEverything that I've been doing is all bad
\nI got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride
\nI've been telling you so many lies
\nAin't none good, it's all bad
\nAnd I just wanna confess
\nIt's been going on so long
\nGirl, I been doing you so wrong
\nAnd I want you to know that
\nEverything that I've been doing is all bad
\nI got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride
\nI've been telling you so many lies
\nAin't none good, it's all bad
\nAnd I just wanna confess
\nIt's been going on so long
\nGirl, I been doing you so wrong
\nAnd I want you to know that...
\n
\n[Verse 1]
\nEvery time I was in L.A., I was with my ex-girlfriend
\nEvery time you called, I told you, "Baby, I'm working"
\n(No!) I was out doing my dirt
\n(Oh!) Wasn't thinking 'bout you getting hurt
\n(I) was hand-in-hand in the Beverly Center like, man
\nNot giving a damn who sees me
\nSo gone, so wrong
\nActing like I didn't have you sitting at home
\nThinking about me
\nBeing the good girl that you are
\nI bet you probably believe you got a good man
\nA man that never would do the things I'm about to tell you I've done
\nBrace yourself, it ain't good
\nBut it would be even worse if you heard this from somebody else
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nEverything that I've been doing is all bad
\nI got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride (Wooooooaaaah)
\nI've been telling you so many lies
\nAin't none good, it's all bad
\nAnd I just wanna confess
\nIt's been going on so long (Yeah)
\nGirl, I been doing you so wrong (Yeah yeah)
\nAnd I want you to know that
\nEverything that I've been doing is all bad
\nI got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride (Ooh ooh yeah)
\nI've been telling you so many lies
\nAin't none good, it's all bad (All bad)
\nAnd I just wanna confess (Yeah yeah)
\nIt's been going on so long (So long)
\nGirl, I been doing you so wrong (So wrong)
\nAnd I want you to know that...
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nIf I could turn back the hands of time and start all over, I would
\nInstead of everything being all bad, baby, everything'll be all good
\nI don't wanna lose you
\nBut I know what I'm telling you ain't gon' make you wanna stay
\nYou probably just wanna run away
\nI'm mad enough to punch me in my face
\nI've been living like an idiot and I deserve every bit of it
\nI know today is the day that I end all the lying and the playing and the bullshit, girl
\nI'm sorry, baby, I'm sorry
\nBut I can no longer walk around with this stress on my chest
\nI confesssssss...
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nEverything that I've been doing is all bad (Everything)
\nI got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride (Wooooooaaaah)
\nI've been telling you so many lies
\nAin't none good, it's all bad
\nAnd I just wanna confess
\nIt's been going on so long (So long)
\nGirl, I been doing you so wrong (Too wrong)
\nAnd I want you to know that (Want you to know)
\nEverything that I've been doing is all bad (All bad)
\nI got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride
\nI've been telling you so many lies (Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
\nAin't none good, it's all bad
\nAnd I just wanna confess (Ooh ooh ooh)
\nIt's been going on so long (So long)
\nGirl, I been doing you so wrong
\nAnd I want you to know that...
\n
\n[Break]
\nStevie, break it down
\n(Ooh oh ooh)
\nOh oh, oh, oh (Ooh oh ooh)
\nDear baby (Ooh oh-ooh)
\nOh, baby (Ooooh)
\nDon’t leave me, baby (Ooh oh oh oh-ooh, I)
\n(Oooooh, ooooh
\nOoooh, ooooh, ooh ooooh
\nOooooh, ooooh, ooooh)
\n
\n[Chorus]
\n(Everything that I've)
\nEverything that (been doing) I've been doing is all bad
\nI got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride
\nI've been telling you so many lies
\nAin't none good, it's all bad
\nAnd I just (it's all bad) wanna confess
\nIt's been going on so long (Going on so long)
\nGirl, I been doing you so wrong (Doing you so wrong)
\nAnd I want you to know that
\nEverything (all bad, all bad) that I've been doing is all bad (All bad)
\nI got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride (Ah baby yeeaah)
\nI've been telling you so many lies (Yeah, yeah, yeah)\n\n
