Til I Get Found
Marc E. Bassy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leave me high and dry
That's my bridge across
If you love me, baby, break me down
Leave me lost and all alone
Until I get found
24 karats of gold
Girl, you're the fairest
That I'll ever find, yeah
And I let go all the roster just to lock it down
But you won't let go of all them dudes for me
And I got this lock and key but has your heart been found?
You will never open up for me
I told her
If you love me, baby, cut me off
Leave me high and dry
That's my bridge to cross
If you love me, baby, break me down
Leave me lost and all alone
Until I get found
'Til I get found
'Til I get found
'Til I, 'til I, 'til I, 'til I, 'til I, 'til I
'Til I get found
'Til I, 'til I, 'til I, 'til I, 'til I, 'til I, oh
Yeah, you lay your head down across my chest
Look up with innocent eyes and say
"You know you love me the best"
And I'll let go all the roster just to lock you down
But you won't let go of all them dudes for me
And I got this lock and key but has your heart been found?
You will never open up for me
I told her
If you love me, baby, cut me off
Leave me high and dry
That's my bridge to cross
If you love me, baby, break me down
Leave me lost and all alone
Until I get found

Until I get found
The song "Til I Get Found" by Marc E. Bassy is about the struggles of a one-sided love. The artist expresses his love for someone who doesn't reciprocate his feelings. He says that if the person loves him, they should break him down, cut him off, and leave him lost, only then will he try to find himself again. The artist also mentions that he has let go of all his options to be with the person he loves, but they haven't done the same for him. He asks if their heart has been found and wonders if they will ever open up to him.
The lyrics reflect the emotional rollercoaster that comes with loving someone who doesn't love back. The artist is willing to go to great lengths to try to win the person's love, even if it means being hurt in the process. He is hoping that the person will see his love for them and reciprocate, but until then, he will remain lost until he gets found.
The song's chorus, "If you love me, baby, cut me off, leave me high and dry, that's my bridge to cross. If you love me, baby, break me down, leave me lost and all alone until I get found," is a powerful statement about the pain of unrequited love. The artist is essentially saying that if the person he loves truly loves him back, they will let him go and give him the chance to find himself again.

@redhotchilifan98
One of the most underrated artists currently around I have no clue how this guy hasn't blown up yet he is unbelievably talented he's got a great voice has fun music with great beats and works so hard I have so much respect for him i hope he finally blows up soon
@RideFaster-EatPasta
I mean, he is blowing up with G-Eazy's help. You and Me is massively popular but I agree he deserves more recognition. I just hope he releases another album that's as good as Gossip Columns and smashes a World Tour.
@redhotchilifan98
Henry Stephen I have no doubt he will the dudes always working I follow his Instagram and his tour is going well so far you and me was definitely a success I just wish he was more well known around but gossip columns was fire can't wait to see what he does next
@redhotchilifan98
And update I got tickets for his tour finally gonna see him live!!
@Jen-xg7wb
You & me is bop tho. He's pretty famous to me i have like 15 songs of him lol 😂
@puffdaddy2328
redhotchilifan98 I swear
Yet he is reallly much better than some overrated ones
@jayvlogs1221
His sound is so modern but it also has a hint of like old styled classical and R&B music that you just want to move and dance with. Its truly incredible if you think about it. Not a lot of people can bring the two together in such a awsome way. Keep up the hard work man and you'll always have a fan here.
@redhotchilifan98
Jay Vlogs it's one of the many things that makes him so special
@Nepetamoon
Exactly, you hit it right on the dot.
@drumsandroses22
You're so right. Tracks like "So Simple" remind me of late 90s/early 2000s R&B especially
