Lost Me lyrics:

Was it all my fault?
Maybe one day, I'll grow
I'm not fixin' what broke us
Instead, I'm
In this ride and I barely know her
But she already know what it is

I'm not lookin' for the one
Later, but for now I'm havin' fun
I'm done 'cause I always get hurt
Won't be here for long
Baby, you can hate me if you want
But now, I gotta put myself first

We can kiss, we can touch and do it often
But if you're here lookin' for love, that's when you lost me
Hey, yeah, yeah
We can kiss, we can touch and do it often
But if you're here lookin' for love, that's when you lost me
Hey, yeah, yeah

Nights spent all alone
Won't be here for long
Put your number in my phone, but don't save it
Visit once or twice and then you made assumptions
Thinkin' it was more
Now you're understandin' that it all meant nothin'
To me, yeah

I'm not lookin' for the one
Later, but for now I'm havin' fun
I'm done 'cause I always get hurt
Won't be here for long
Baby, you can hate me if you want
But now, I gotta put myself first

We can kiss, we can touch and do it often
But if you're here lookin' for love, that's when you lost me

It wasn't all my fault
Just thought I'd let you know
Something's gotten into me
Ever since you let me go

Giveon official bio:

Giveon has always used his raw, evocative songwriting to mine a confusing world for answers, and that approach has connected to the tune of over 2 billion global streams and nearly 1 billion YouTube views thus far. But, lately, he's been fixed on a problem he can't solve. As he puts it, “Sometimes the truth is rewarded, and sometimes it’s frowned upon. Do we want truth, or a little deception to make us feel better?” This sort of tension is at the heart of Giveon's work. “Lie Again” shows off the emotional curiosity and deep warmth of his songs over cinematic R&B arrangements. This sensitivity and love for storytelling traces back to his upbringing in Long Beach, CA, where his mother shielded him and his brothers from the area’s gang culture, and encouraged him to sing. After years of hustle, he bonded with producer Sevn Thomas (Drake, Rihanna) in 2019 and placed “Chicago Freestyle” on Drake’s mixtape Dark Lane Demo Tapes. Giveon's March 2020 debut EP Take Time held his first top 40 Hot 100 hit, “Heartbreak Anniversary,” and by March 2021, his When It’s All Said and Done… Take Time compilation debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200. (It’s since gone Platinum, and “All to Me” went Gold—his 10th RIAA certification). The 7-time Grammy nominee has been hard at work on a follow-up, figuring out how to best share himself with all eyes on him.
