Insane
Terrace Martin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hella glad you made it
Shot a clock, I'm faded
Be my designated
Call your driver, baby
'Cause that body drives me crazy

I let you drive
Drive me insane
I'm down for the ride
Drive me insane

That body on you so (insane)
Them legs you got is so (insane)
The way you walk is so (insane)
You've been walking on my brain
So, I let you drive (drive)
Drive me insane

I let you drive (drive)
Drive me insane
I'm down for the ride
Drive me insane

That body on you so (insane)
Them legs you got is so (insane)
The way you walk is so (insane)
You've been walking on my brain




So, I let you drive (drive)
Drive me insane

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics from Terrace Martin's song "Insane," the singer expresses their excitement and pleasure at the presence of a person they are clearly infatuated with, expressing how happy they are that this person has arrived. The mention of being "faded" could refer to feeling intoxicated or high, adding to the sense of euphoria and letting loose. The singer then suggests that the person be their designated driver, indicating a level of trust and reliance on this individual to take care of them in their altered state. The line "Call your driver, baby / 'Cause that body drives me crazy" cleverly plays on the idea of being driven crazy both physically and emotionally by this person's presence.


The chorus of the song repeatedly emphasizes the idea of letting this person "drive" the singer insane, which can be interpreted as allowing them to take control and captivate their thoughts and emotions entirely. The choice of words like "down for the ride" suggests a willingness to be taken on a thrilling and unpredictable journey by this person they are so drawn to. The repetition of the phrase "Drive me insane" creates a sense of urgency and intensity in the singer's desire for this person's presence and influence in their life.


The following lines focus on the physical attributes of the person that the singer finds irresistible, describing their body, legs, and walk as "insane." This hyperbolic language conveys the depth of the singer's admiration and attraction, as well as the overwhelming effect this person has on them. The imagery of them walking on the singer's brain further emphasizes the idea of being consumed and entranced by their presence, unable to shake off the impact they have.


In the final chorus, the repetition of the lines about letting the person drive the singer insane reinforces the theme of surrendering to their power and influence. The singer acknowledges the hold this person has over them and seemingly revels in it, finding excitement and pleasure in being so captivated. Overall, these lyrics portray a sense of infatuation, desire, and surrender to the overwhelming allure of someone who drives the singer to a state of passionate obsession.
