[Verse 1]
I've been waiting all week
Take me anywhere you wanna
Tell me where to go cause I'm new to California
I can bring a pack since she don't know how to roll up
Talk about your culture, I'm trying to get to know you, come on
Pull off to the side and we can walk, walk, walk
Emptyin' a bottle while we talk, talk, talk
Now I got you open speaking soft, soft, soft
What took you so long?
[Chorus]
You don't have to run away with me
I'm not asking you to change a thing
I'm just trying to catch a wave with you
Before we get in way too deep
[Verse 2]
There's a rezi up delilahs cause it's just around the corner
Dressed up how you want girl, you know it's California
Are you really quiet or just don't know what to order?
I'm not tryna press, I'm just tryna get to know you
And if you holding on, maybe you should let it go
And if you borderline, I'll get you a passport
Baby if you think less, maybe you would laugh more
Mix it with the juice, like, ou, that's what that's for
If private on La Jolla we can walk, walk, walk
Now all that you wanna do is talk, talk, talk
Grabbing on my belt like how you get this off?
What took you so long?
[Chorus]
You don't have to run away with me
I'm not asking you to change a thing
I'm just trying to catch a wave with you
Before we get in way too deep
You don't have to run away with me
I'm not asking you to change a thing
I'm just trying to catch a wave with you
Before we get in way too deep
[Bridge]
It's a wrap when I hit you with the wordplay
Laying out, staying up till the birds sing
Don't feel bad that you did it on the first date
You'd regret it if you didn't in the first place
[Chorus]
You don't have to run away with me
I'm not asking you to change a thing
I'm just trying to catch a wave with you
Before we get in way too deep
You don't have to run away with me
I'm not asking you to change a thing
I'm just trying to catch a wave with you
Before we get in way too deep
[Outro]
You don't have to run away with me, me
I'm not asking you to change a thing
I'm just trying, trying wave with you, you
Before we get in way too deep
You don't have to run away with me
I'm not asking you to change

How Did The Song Come Together?
My Producer (Digi) and I were going through some beats he had..some are fully produced..but this one was just a guitar loop with some background vocals. We put it to the side and when we opened it to start working the melodies came automatically…we went back and forth on lyrics for months..but the m...
What Was The Inspiration Behind This Track?
We really wanted to capture my feelings having just moved out to California. LA brings out a certain type of energy in everyone…and if you can harness it and ride that wave you are just bound to make a “feel good” record of some sort. This was that record for me.
What Was The Process of Making The Song Like?
This was the first song we had done together.. I express my inexperience in LA in a sort of innocent or “lost boy” manner. Throwing in a specific references like “Delilah’s” which is a lounge/restaurant bar in Hollywood. Like I said we started with a guitar loop and some background vocals, the melod...
What did Anthony Russo say about "California"?
We were in the studio one day, and one of my managers walked in and heard us working on ‘California. [My manager] immediately said 'Yo, focus on that one. It feels real and is what you’re living right now. Fuck all that other shit. Focus on this one.’ So when it came to the record ‘California’, the...
