"Get Lost" is the third track from Kanye West's demo studio album, Donda 2 (2022).
In the song, Kanye sings about remembering the good moments of his past marriage, while feeling lost in his dreams. The song is notable for being an acapella.[1]
Background[]
The initial freestyle to "Get Lost" had been recorded some time in late-January or very early-February and had featured a beat produced by AllDay. It's very likely this freestyle is the same voice memo that was used in the second copy of the song.
On February 2nd, both "Broken Road" and "Get Lost" were combined into one song for a short period of time, the AllDay instrumental being used over the initial MIKE DEAN instrumental for Broken Road. The song featured a new chorus from Don Toliver, a verse from Shenseea as well as a new guitar outro from MIKE DEAN.[2] Past this point, the songs were again split,
On February 11, Fat Money would record a reference for the song over the AllDay instrumental. Past this point, the song was turned into an acapella with minimal production.[3] On the 16th, Shenseea would record a feature for the song that would be scrapped past the PopLord reference for the song on the 19th.[4]
On the 15th, the songs "Get Lost" and "Broken Road" were combined again, the verse being added onto the copy of the song that was intended for MIKE DEAN's copy of the album.[5] Past this point the songs once again were never recombined.
The song was previewed at the Donda Experience Performance on February 22, two days before the song's release.[6] The song was updated on March 7, 2022 with less autotune in Ye's voice.[7]
After the release of Donda 2, the song was seemingly finished, with Kanye interpolating the Fat Money reference track and the song now seeming to lack any of the autotune that was on it prior.[8]
Lyrics[]
[Verse]
I still get lost in night
Lost in my dreaming time
Memories back from fine
Back to get all my time
I still get lost when trying
Memory back from time
All my thoughts on at night
All my life's on the line
I still get lost at night
Memory back from mine
'Member we had one night?
'Member we had the night?
I still get lost sometimes
Memories haunting mind
'Member we had the mind?
'Member we had the mind?
I'm gon' get lost sometimes
'Member we cry sometimes
I went through final fight
While you was mine, all mine
Somehow, we got to meet
Now you stay off the streets
Walked out without the love
Soccer without the cleats
Fucked up and on repeat
'Bove all the night, I beat
I know I'm back to sleep
What a new sight to see, what do you write for me?
What will feel right for me?
I did what's right for me
I fought from fighting me
Well, I would like to see
I still get lost sometimes
Far from my state of mind
Stay on the vibes alright
When do I cross your mind?
When do you see my pride?
I've got a Pablo shine
Pride is the number line
Okay, well, never mind
Okay, then, never mind
Do I still cross your mind?
If not, then, never mind
If not, then, never mind
