Drivin' Me Wild
Common Lyrics

It's this thing now, that's driving me wild
Something is bothering me and I am struggling to cope with it

I gotta see what's up, before it gets me down
I need to find out what the problem is before it negatively affects me

Love's not a mystery, it's everything
Love is not complicated or unknown, it is the most important thing in life

She was the type to watch Oprah and The Today Show
She enjoyed watching daytime talk shows and staying up-to-date on current events

Be on the treadmill, like OK Go
She enjoyed working out and staying healthy

Had the body that you can't pay for
She had a naturally attractive physique that wasn't artificially enhanced

That means she had some D's on her, but they wasn't fake though
She had naturally large breasts that weren't surgically enhanced

Had a drive, a Drive for Rodeo
She had a passion for country rodeo events

She spent pesos on those labels
She spent a lot of money on designer clothing

Spent class at the gym, striptease on the pole
She worked hard at the gym and also tried pole dancing as a form of exercise

She was so obsessed with her body and clothes
She was overly focused on her physical appearance and fashion

To every party she goes, trying hard to be chose
She attended many social events in hopes of being chosen or noticed by men

They say it's hard for a pimp, but extra hard for these hoes
It's difficult for anyone in the sex industry, but especially challenging for women

Reading US or People mag, trying to get these scoops
She read celebrity gossip magazines to learn the latest news

Chasing an actor for a Bentley Coupe
She pursued an actor in the hopes of gaining material possessions such as a Bentley car

She recruit a ball player from the Clippers
She sought out a basketball player from the Los Angeles Clippers team

Then came the pumps off
Her true intentions were revealed and she lost respect from others

Thinking she Number One, when she just a jump off
She thought she was the most important person, when in reality she was just a casual hookup

Doing all she can for a man and a baby
She went to great lengths to try to attract a man and start a family

Driving herself crazy
She became consumed with her goals to the point of harming her mental health

like the astronaut lady
A reference to Lisa Nowak, an astronaut who had a mental breakdown and was arrested for attempted murder

He had paper since we was in, we was in High School
He came from a wealthy family and had money even when he was young

One of the Diddy types, the Dame Dash dudes
He aspired to be like hip hop moguls Sean Combs and Damon Dash

Pushed the Maserati Sport, reading the ROB Report
He drove a luxury car and read a magazine about wealth and success

Wanted to be Mike, but he was never live in sports
He idolized basketball player Michael Jordan, but was never successful in sports himself

Since golf was in, he was in the driving course
Golf became popular and he took up the sport

To live the rap life is what he was striving for
He wanted to live the flashy, luxurious lifestyle often portrayed in hip hop music

Spending cash at the bar to get credit
He spent money at the bar to impress others or show off his wealth

Drinking Chandon just because BIG said
He drank a specific type of champagne because a famous rapper mentioned it

They say Ye is, but dude big-headed
People say that rapper Kanye West is egotistical, but this man was also guilty of being cocky

Rocked the fur in the summer, so, somebody'll pet it
He wore a fur coat in the summer in hopes of gaining attention and admiration

He had a fetish for shoes that's athletic
He had a particular interest in athletic shoes and collected them

Pathetic on his myspace page, half naked
He posted revealing pictures of himself on a social media site

It's a shame what they do for fame, and to be respected
It's unfortunate that some people will go to any lengths to gain fame and validation from others

Joe you could of got it, if you never woulda stressed it
Addressing someone named Joe, saying that he could have been successful if he hadn't been so stressed or obsessed with achieving success

They was one of them couples, people said they was it
They were one of those couples that others admired and thought would last forever

Unbreakable like Bobby and Whit
A reference to Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, who had a tumultuous relationship that ultimately ended in divorce but who were once seen as an unbreakable couple

Or Ryan and Reese, or Kimora and Russ
Other celebrity couples who were seen as strong and unbreakable

Relationships can be dead but look live to us
Sometimes relationships may appear to be thriving, but in reality they are struggling or even failing

I guess we all been through it, where we try too much
We've all experienced times where we try too hard to make a relationship work

Losing yourself and your lying and stuff
In trying too hard to please your partner, you may lose your own identity and even resort to dishonesty

Wishing for the diamond cuffs, searching for the ring
Hoping for commitment and the material possessions that often come with it

Where love is not a mystery, it's everything, sing
Love is the most important thing in life and should be celebrated
