Lyrics Doing Time – Bazzi

Admit it, admit it
Admit it, admit it

What’s been keepin’ you high
Who’s been wastin’ you time
You were my pocket, pocket full of sunshine
I never killed for you but I’ve been doin’ time
Yeah, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, yeah, I’ve been doin’ time

We used to get together, share our sentimental thoughts
And lay inside this bed until the world was turnin’ off
I used to get a check and spend on you after my shows
And now it’s funny, like a stranger I don’t even know
But who you know that knew you better
Who you know that do whatever
Who you know that almost drowned in that rainstormy weather
All them other girls, whatever, but we know this for the better
But..

What’s been keepin’ you high
Who’s been wastin’ you time
You were my pocket, pocket full of sunshine
I never killed for you but I’ve been doin’ time
Yeah, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, yeah, I’ve been doin’ time

Can’t get no peace of mind, yeah
We used to get together and make it all feel better
Wintertime in Michigan, give you my only sweater
I know I broke your heart, I get the way you feel
It’s been so hard to heal
Can’t take back what was real
‘Cause I wanna be, I wanna be where you are
Tell me what you need, yeah
Now somebody else, somebody else is in your arms
So tell me

What’s been keepin’ you high
Who’s been wastin’ you time
Tell me who’s been wastin’ your time
You were my pocket, pocket full of sunshine
I never killed for you but I’ve been doin’ time
Yeah, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, yeah, I’ve been doin’ time

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, I’ve been doin’ time
Yeah, ayy, yeah
I’ve been doin’ time…
