Numb
Cassie Ft. Rick Ross Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I make music to numb your brain
I make music to numb your brain
Ride the wave

New young ruler of the beat and the vox
Breezy tonic, fresh like rain
My beat mans cruel, he's the freakiest box banger
Fox hanging on my coat, rocks hanging on my chain
And that's how you know I've been hunting the game
Bang bang and I hit it with impeccable aim
Bang bang and I blow it up, they don't know whats up
If they think for a second that I do it for the fame
'Cause I make music to numb your brain

I make music to numb your brain
I make music to numb your brain
I make music to numb your brain

Bottle after bottle, I am balling like Robert Griffin
Never made love I had her coming from a distance
Said I was a mason, Martin Margiela
Triple Beam, hustling, thatโ€™s full of cheddar
Yellow brick road, I'm told itโ€™s just a cakewalk
Now itโ€™s Philip Lim on them, no more 8-Balls
Un-cut, my love thatโ€™s all thug
Call them different names in the middle of the plug
Went on world tours, paid in all cash
Top floor views, my wall is all glass
All paid dues but normally fall fast
Same bitch you shittinโ€™ on the only thing that'll last
I am trying to see 100 of โ€˜em
Kobe Bryant money, nigga you ainโ€™t gotta love him
Swish, new rims on the six
Tell me that you numb if you not feeling this, Rick


When I make the wave, you ride it (Ride the wave, ride the wave)

If you insane and it's late in the night
You can smoke one, pop one, close your eyes
You can say this in your mind
And I say it all the time
Iโ€™m the same, insane
Itโ€™s a damn good time
Itโ€™s a damn good time
Iโ€™m just saying itโ€™s a damn good time
In-vi-gorating, impact ya like ice
Beat, pulsating, your heart skips twice
On the bass drum, and them pumps so nice
Heart skips twice, and them pumps so nice
On the bass drum, pumps so nice
Heart skip, ride the wave

I make music to numb your brain
I make music to numb your brain
I make music to numb your brain
I make music to numb your brain

It's a damn good time, I'm just saying it's a damn good time

When I make the wave (ride the wave)
When I make the wave (ride the wave)
