Story Behind The Song
I wanted to write a song about the way you first feel when you start dating someone new... the "honey-moon" period if you will. The feeling of love or lust you feel for a crush, because the love is new, refreshing, and exciting. You keep wanting more, and can't get enough... just like an addiction.
Song Description
Girl meets boy and instantly feels a very strong attraction. All she can do is think about him 24/7. The way he makes her feel, takes over her mind and consumes her. She's never felt this way about anyone else. He has her heart and soul. She can't get him out of her mind, and all she wants to do is spend all her time with him. He acknowledges the way she feels, aware of the effect he has made on her, and realizing that he also feels the same way. His boys are jealous of their relationship, trying to keep them apart, but regardless, he invites her into his life.

Lyrics
ADDICTED - FELICIA ALIMA FT. G. MURRAY
Kobane on the track
Alima
G-Murray
Ho, uh
Yeah, uh
Ho, yeah
Verse 1:
Like a habit (habit)
I gots to have it (have it)
I need you in my life babe
To love me, the right way
I just can't help it (nah, nah)
I can't get enough
On my mind, like all the time
24/7, this just ain't right
It's like an obsession
I can't eat, I can't sleep
Boy, what you do to me?
Boy, (boy) what you do to me?
I feel like I got no control (no control)
Take over my body and soul (body and soul)
What you do it just chill my bones (oh)
There's no explanation
It's out of this world
Chorus:
You make me feel like
I'm addicted to your love (your love)
I'm feelin' things I've never felt, for no one (for no one)
I know I'm addicted (oh wa)
And it's getting serious (oh wa)
You got me, you got me
Have your way with me
Have you way with me (x3)
Verse 2:
It's 5 o'clock
You're probably fast asleep but I -
Miss you, I want you here with me I wanna -
Call you, coz you're on my mind
I wanna know if, you could ignore the time
If you leave right now, you could beat the sun
It knows it's crazy, but it's so damn fun and I -
Know you, I know you're down
I'll make you smile, I'll make it worth-your-while
You're on my brain (my brain)
It's driving me insane (insane)
You got a spell on me (oh)
No use trying to fight it (woo oh)
You got me curious (curious)
Baby I'm so serious (serious)
But I can't really quit right now
If I wanted to, I just don't know how
Chorus
(Make it do what it do)
Rap - G. Murray:
I got her feeling all funny
I'm still in the lab, it can't be the money
My boys looking at me like I'm the big dummy
Doing silly shit, tryin' keep her away from me (Come on girl)
I'm with her in the studio
The crew don't mind, baby you could go
Little did I know, the effect that I had on the girl so bad, take it slow (go fast)
You a pro, don't laugh, hands flying in the air, like I'm tryin' to catch a cab
(We both out there bad) (Hey, what?)
Make a focused man become a daydreamer
Tell me have you seen her, Miss Alima?
First time I saw her, she had a mean mug (nah-a)
I made her smile, we had to team up
We had to meet up, being with Felicia
I was late for class, and I am the teacher
Chorus (x2)
You got me fiendin'
Like an addict
You got me wanting you
I gots to have it
Ain't nothing else, no
There's no substitute
Nobody else
Makes me feel like you do
Your love
For no one
Oh wa, Oh wa
