'Can't Leave 'em Alone' is an ode to the hood boys anchored by a pair of verses from 50 Cent, featuring an 'easy groove'. Later, 'So Hard' was confirmed to be the third US single, while 'That's Right' would serve as the third internationally, but 'Can't Leave 'em Alone', unexpectedly, replaced both songs. 'Can't Leave 'em Alone', along with ' That's Right', was originally a contender to be the second US and first worldwide single from the album, and a poll was posted on Ciara's MySpace page to have fans help her decide, but the other contender ' Like a Boy' was chosen over both songs.
