lyrics

I’ve met a lot of people,
But I forgot all of their names,
While I was too busy fishing,
Deep inside my brains,
For all the,
Love gone down the drain

I’ve met a lot of souls,
On the coast of Mexico,
Though I’ve never been there,
But who are they to know,
Just where I’ve been,
And where it is I’ll go.

It’s a shame,
How we change,
Upside down,
Yet still remain,
In our place,
All the same,
Take the time,
And rearrange yourself for me.

Why bother about tomorrow,
When we’re barely here today,
All the things that we have been through,
They’re out of the way,
So get in line,
And let me hear you say.

It’s no shame,
How we change,
Upside down,
And still remain,
In our place,
All the same,
But in time,
I might give my fears away.

Raja Ghraizi Hamburg, Germany

Raja Ghraizi’s debut album - Ego, id and I - is in many ways an autobiographical work, exploring the ins and outs of a person well blessed, and cursed with diversity and randomness. Raja was born in Lagos, Nigeria to Lebanese parents and spent many years alternating between Lebanon and Nigeria, two countries abundant with culture, stimulus and mystical magic.

Recorded in North Germany in 12/2019 ... more
