[Chorus: Alina Baraz (sampled)]
What do I do
When there's too much of me, too little of you?
What can I say
When I know you're not here to stay?
I can't explain something I don't understand
Why did I let this get out of hand?
Maybe I'll get you out of my head
Maybe I'll forget all the things you said



[Alina Baraz (sampled)]
[Bazanji]


Lies on your lips
 
But there's love in your eyes
 
I said I know it’s been a while
But I’ve been workin’ every night
And I know I’ve been tellin’ lies
Just know that everything is fine


Maybe
 
I'll forget you some other time
 
I said I know it’s been a while
But I’ve been workin’ every night
And I know I’ve been tellin’ lies
Just know that everything is fine

[Verse 1: Bazanji]
I told you to come through
We stay up and we stay cool
We roll up and we blow up
And I told you bring a friend too
It's alright, it's alright
Doin' this like all night
I know that I've been gone girl
But you've been all on my mind
And I wonder when I'm really gonna know what's good
You be comin' over but you never stay for good
And we always goin' through it, never really get into it
But I'm never gonna get up when I know I should
One day, one day
In Santa Monica when I'm out in LA
Pretty girls walkin' 'round like all day
That's what they all say
But you see right through 'em like an X-ray
Lovin' the lavish and thinkin' they're real
Not lookin' for love, they're just lookin’ for bills
They're lookin' for clothes out in Beverley hills
They've done it before like they've been runnin' drills
Yeah, so I gotta think twice
When everybody talkin' bout the girls from the west side
Chillin' with the broads in my hometown, best side
Runnin' that game, never stop 'til I die
Hold up

[Chorus: Alina Baraz (sampled)]
What do I do
When there's too much of me, too little of you?
What can I say
When I know you're not here to stay?
I can't explain something I don't understand
Why did I let this get out of hand?
Maybe I'll get you out of my head
Maybe I'll forget all the things you said

Just know that everything is fine


Maybe
 
I'll forget you some other time
 
I said I know it’s been a while
But I’ve been workin’ every night
And I know I’ve been tellin’ lies
Just know that everything is fine

[Verse 2: Abstract]
You thinkin' I've changed
Before I say a thing, yeah
Only you to blame
If you'd act normal would've seen I'm still the same, yeah
Don't know why you actin' differently
Trying to not let it get to me
Though they be talkin' they never say shit to me
Ignorance though it ain't stressing me
Recipe never involved you
I did the work that they don't do
So I could go do what they won't do
I became all that I told you
Wanna talk hustle I'm also the flow
Packing my bags then I'm back to the coast
Been in the town but I move like a ghost
These days I only keep real people close
Seen me lately? (Seen me lately, seen me lately?)
Then I appreciate you greatly
If you can't see what I've done
Then you fuckin' crazy (You fuckin' crazy, fuckin' crazy)

[Outro: Alina Baraz (sampled)]
What do I do
When there's too much of me, too little of you?
What can I say
When I know you're not here to stay?
I can't explain something I don't understand
Why did I let this get out of hand?

Bazanji

Bazanji is an American hip hop artist of Kurdish descent. Despite being born in the UK, he was raised in the US after moving to North Carolina at the age of 6. Bazanji tends to keep his plate full as he is also a full-time dental student at the University of North Carolina. He has been validating his path into the hip-hop scene with millions of online streams and performances alongside noteworthy artists such as DJ Khaled. Before discovering hip-hop, Bazanji experienced a rich taste of music as a drummer in multiple rock bands.

On November 18th, 2017, Bazanji independently released his long-awaited debut album titled Mixed Feelings. The 10-track album debuted at #13 on iTunes Hip-Hop/Rap chart and has accumulated over 30 million streams. In 2018, his single “Runnin'” received mass exposure with appearances on ESPN SportsCenter, College Football, NBA, Forza Horizon 4 and more. After a continuous release of singles, Bazanji returned in early 2020 with his second album titled OUTLIER.

Bazanji remains an independent artist and has made it a priority to be in control of his work, as he handles all writing, mixing, mastering, and occasional production. He hopes to tell his story as a dual-career artist.
