Mark Battles - Numb To It lyrics

[Verse 1: Mark Battles] Imagine being eight, and never feeling safe My momma's crazy husband put a pistol to her face He knocked me on the ground and told me that I had to wait Gotta watch yo momma die cause her and Jesus got a date It fill my heart with hate, never give in, so we take Then when my brother pa**ed, I wish I could've took his place Wait, wait, you see, I ain't wanna live Pain lies in d**h is what I knew as a kid So afraid of love, to scared to ever cross that bridge Not one to mess it up in these relationships I'm in Not again, who the hell am I supossed to trust? When he beat my mom for years and all she did was show him love? All the tears they slowin' much, know my fears, I'm growin' up Don't play me like a chump, I'mma get you what you want I'm so tired of being weak, got a gun from down the streets Said I'mma k** him in his sleep Sixteen, I was a beast, twenty years I'll be released Got it on my mom for weeks, I'mma take us both beneath [Hook: Brittani Jenae] I'm just numb, I'm just numb to it I'm just numb to it Don't wanna feel the pain no more Oh, yeah I'm just numb, call me numb to it I'm just numb to it Don't wanna feel the pain no more Oh, yeah I'm just numb to it [Verse 2: Mark Battles] They said I was bein' dumb, really I just needed love So I had my babies young, for you I'd fight the moon And protect you from the sun With daddy on your side, baby, you ain't gotta run Stand strong, keep your head up The world can be against us and I promise we won't lead up But if they knock you down, just be proud, you can get up Keep your hunger in that drive even when you fed up (I love you) [Hook: Brittani Jenae] I'm just numb, I'm just numb to it I'm just numb to it Don't wanna feel the pain no more Oh, yeah I'm just numb, call me numb to it I'm just numb to it Don't wanna feel the pain no more Oh, yeah [Outro] I'm just numb to it I'm just numb to it I'm just numb to it
