Numb
Fat B.A.B.E Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bathing ape on my back
Even though I'm looking from the front
I can still see that back
I got racks on racks
No I'm not white
See I'm hifey like keep the sneak
Please don't creep by me, don't try me
All this fly shit, I bought came with receipts
This ain't no game, don't be playin' with me
All these bad bitches be stayin' with me
Beat the beat up like I'm Roy in that ring
Enough of me rapping, gon' let that boy sing
I had one, two, three too many
I'm fucked up, four chicks with me
I'm loud, took about five shots
Six bottles I just copped
Twisted, turnt up, twenty four seven
That's more bad bitches I'm getting
They know I hit em and quit em
And go past what they came here for
Baby can I see you make yo ass drop?
I'mma let the Rose bottles pop
I'mma sip this Roc, baby don't stop
'Cause yo body on fire, you too hot
I can't feel my face
I'm so numb
I'm so wasted
So dumb
I'm shit faced it
Just in case I don't make it
Take my drink, nigga I'm buzzin'
Take my trees, nigga I'm gone
Take my keys, nigga it's nothing
One of these chicks is taking me home
Take my drink, nigga I'm buzzin'
Take my trees, nigga I'm gone
Take my keys, nigga it's nothing
One of these chicks is taking me home
That little red bone said she's taking me home
Fine ass friend said she coming along
Love in the morning, so I'm fuckin em strong
I'mma beat em to sleep then I'm gone in the morning
Hold up! I tell a bitch roll up
Before I gotta roll out all I do is turn up
Turn down fuck what, need another drink
Baby go and pour up, money hungover
So you know I gotta throw up the fetti
So that they know that I'm ready
To get em poppin' and droppin' the party never be stopping
'Cause I be keeping 'em rocking, you all these bitches be choosin'
'Cause now they see that I'm winning like I'm allergic to losing and I
I can't feel my face
I'm so numb
I'm so wasted, so dumb
I'm shit faced it
Just in case I don't make it
Take my drink, nigga I'm buzzin'
Take my trees, nigga I'm gone
Take my keys, nigga it's nothing
One of these chicks is taking me home
Take my drink, nigga I'm buzzin'
Take my trees, nigga I'm gone
Take my keys, nigga it's nothing
One of these chicks is taking me home
Ro-Rolex shinin' call it perfect timing
Many is fresh, my baby's big timin'
Like a giant clock, club taking big shots
Like a giant Glock, bitch got high then she made her booty drop
While I'm watchin' like the cops
Do the niggas in the hood
Smell it fore I light it
So you know my weed good
Fly like a pilot from the same time it should
Concealing big D, she gon take it like a crook
Just make one thing understood
You nothing without paper like books
Word to my nigga double A, everybody's under may
Make bitches come, ada andale
When I'm digging in that skeezer, no soda, that squeezer
I'm cakin' no pam, bro's growin' up with Caesar
Crazy ass peep make these bitches go beezer
All my niggas makin reserve, drop
Take my drink, nigga I'm buzzin'
Take my trees, nigga I'm gone
Take my keys, nigga it's nothing
One of these chicks is taking me home
Take my drink, nigga I'm buzzin'
Take my trees, nigga I'm gone
Take my keys, nigga it's nothing
One of these chicks is taking me home

The lyrics to Fat B.A.B.E's song Numb seem to be centered around the themes of partying, drinking, and the consequences that come with these behaviors. The first verse talks about the physical appearance of the artist, with them having expensive accessories like gold necklaces and Bathing Ape clothing. They also mention having plenty of money with the line "I got racks on racks." The tone changes from boasting about material things to talking about being under the influence and vulnerable with the line "Just in case I don't make it." The chorus is repeated multiple times and repeatedly emphasizes how the artist's senses are dulled from partying and that they are not in control. The second verse talks about the artist's relationships with women, how they use them for sex and drink, and how these women are only interested in them because they are "winning like I'm allergic to losing."
Overall, the lyrics seem to be showing the negative consequences of party culture and the superficial relationships and behaviors that can occur within that context. The repeated chorus of being "numb" and feeling "wasted" emphasizes how these actions can lead to a lack of control and awareness. The lyrics also showcase the objectification of women and how the artist views them as mere objects for pleasure.

This feeling is something I would never wish upon anyone
Starting from here my head is where I feel numb
From the front of my neck to the base of my skull
I'm taken aback by the way my mind is working
Like Paul, my emotional control is always shirking
Soon there will be nothing left at all
My mind is like an empty hall
I wanna be calling for help
But all my friends are like a pressure valve
And what I need is salvation and a little bit of patience
Oh with all the love I have, I'm still alone
This feeling is something I would never wish upon anyone
I'm coming here from aback with understated sight
With the feelings that are associated with this dynamite
That I'm bringing
The tears and the singing
Being alive, is it a gift when there's so much you will miss
And so little ringing true with the words said to you
By the people you trusted
When it all came down to
Choosing your ideals, developing your fears
Why oh why is foresight always warded by blacklights
Hey yeah that's all I've got to give now
Oh you know that's all I've got to give
This feeling is something I'd never wish on anybody else
