Proverbs 6:3-5
then do this, my son, to free yourself, for you have fallen into your neighbor’s hands: Go, humble yourself, and press your plea with your neighbor. Allow no sleep to your eyes or slumber to your eyelids. Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, like a bird from the snare of the fowler.

End of the Road · Boyz II Men
strains against Proverbs 6:3-5
The song's refusal to 'let go' of someone who has moved on reflects an unhealthy grip rather than the wisdom to release what cannot be held.
