Songfacts®:

  • This is the lead single and title track of LeToya Luckett's third album. The song samples Soul II Soul's 1989 hit tune "Back To Life (However Do You Want Me)."
  • Luckett told Billboard magazine about the song. "In the lyrics, I sing about having a hard time moving on from a relationship - and come right out of the gate saying this might be my problem, not yours," she said. "We're quick to blame others a lot of times in those situations but this time I wanted to do some self-reflecting. I was willing to try everything. I didn't want to be stuck to one thing."
