"Body falls so I don’t know who to call at all
Alone, and my heart, got tat of it broke
I’m so fucking numb, my life has succumb
To hatred and death, alone in the snow"
XXXTENTACION also has the word “Numb” tattooed in red ink under his right eye. He said it represents the period of his life where he couldn’t really feel any emotion.

I'm drowning in my tears, I'm drowning in my tears again
I can't seem to forget the pain I seem to give
The pain I seem to give, my friend
And every single year
I'm drowning in my tears, I'm drowning in my tears again
I can't seem to forget the pain I seem to give
The pain I seem to give, my friend
Woah, oh, woah, oh
Woah, oh, woah, oh
Woah, oh, woah, oh
Woah, oh, woah, oh
Woah, oh, woah, oh
And every single year
I'm drowning in my tears, I'm drowning in my tears again
I can't seem to forget the pain I seem to give
The pain I seem to give, my friend
Woah, oh

The lyrics of "NUMB" by XXXTentacion capture a feeling of extreme emotional pain and regret. The singer expresses how every year, he finds himself overwhelmed and consumed by tears as he is unable to forget the pain that he has caused others. The phrase "drowning in my tears" is used as a metaphor for how the singer feels suffocated by his feelings of guilt and sadness. He acknowledges that he has caused pain to others and seems to be struggling with the weight of his own actions.
The repetition of the lyrics emphasizes the cyclical nature of the singer's pain and the fact that he is trapped in an emotional cycle that he can't seem to break free from. The line "the pain I seem to give, my friend" suggests that the singer may have hurt someone close to him, and the pain he feels is not just internal but also inflicted on those around him.
Overall, "NUMB" is a poignant and emotional song that deals with the burden of emotional pain and the difficulty of finding a way to move on from it. The repetition of the lyrics and the somber tone of the music are a powerful reflection of the singer's emotional state.

I love this song but you got the lyrics wrong, it’s “the pain you seem to give, my friend” not I

He used to be one of the "Yung Bratz"
He caused a "Riot"
He said that people should "Look At Me"
But after the tragedy of "Jocelyn Flores"
He made "changes"
He wanted to "Take a Step Back" from music but returned
He used to say "Fuck love", but then he changed his mind
He wanted everyone to have "Hope"
He knew people went through "Depression & Obsession"
He wanted "Revenge" against death, which took his friend away
But he never got it, in reality all he actually wanted was "The Remedy for a broken heart"
He wanted to raise awareness for horrible causes, because if he didn't the awareness would be "Going Down"
He wanted people to be happy because he knew that "Everyone Dies in Their Nightmares", so he wanted people to have happy dreams instead
He wanted everyone to sleep peacefully under the "Moonlight"
But now he is gone
And we all feel "SAD"
We also feel "BAD" because we underestimated him
He wanted to "Save me" and everyone else
Now he is our “guardian angel “ thank you so much xxxtentacion I will never forget the day I met you and you gave me a kiss in my forehead I will miss u😢😢
