Addiction

About Addiction

"Addiction" is a song written, produced, and performed by American singer and record producer Ryan Leslie. It features vocals by American singer Cassie and American rapper Fabolous, who wrote his guest rap verse. The song contains elements from the composition "I Can't Help It" written by Stevie Wonder and Susaye Greene, as performed by Michael Jackson. Released as the second single from his self-titled debut album, Ryan Leslie (2009), it was sent to rhythmic and urban contemporary radio stations in the United States on July 7, 2008. The track was made available for digital download the following day through Universal Motown Records and Leslie's NextSelection imprint. A version of the song featuring just Cassie was also included in physical versions of the single. The R&B-future soul song originated after a lively night out in New York City with Leslie having an impulse to go to the studio create a track that captured the "frenetic energy and electricity" he had experienced. He stated that music is his "addiction," but the track could be referring to a relationship or "anything that makes you feel that type of way." Commercially, the single failed to make an impact on the US Billboard Hot 100 but managed to appear at number fifteen on Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles and number thirty-five on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts as a partial result of steady airplay received from R&B/Hip-Hop format radio stations. It was remixed and sampled by multiple artists including Kid Cudi, Clipse, Wiz Khalifa and more. more »

Only thin' I wanna do is come over and lay with you at night
I don't wanna waste no time, the mood is right
I just wanna come over and lay with you tonight
I'ma do what's on my mind

It's when I lay my body
Next to yours, you got me
Addicted to your love
Boy, you got me

Addicted, addicted
I'm your, your addiction, addiction
You're my, my heroine and cocaine
I know you're not good for me
But I don't wanna go away

All day, I just been thinkin' about gettin' you all day
I didn't even wanna think about you today
But you was runnin' through my mind anyway
And I just wanna lay my body next to yours, you got me
Addicted to your love, ooh, you got me

It's when I lay my body
Next to yours, you got me
Addicted to your love
Boy, you got me

Addicted, addicted
I'm your, your addiction, addiction
You're my, my heroine and cocaine
I know you're not good for me (Cassie, huh)
But I don't wanna go away (ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)

What up Cassie, baby? When I land, I'm gonna holla (ayy, ayy)
Addicted like that cocaine, they be foldin' in that dollar (ayy, ayy, ayy)
That Special K, that heroine, got two watches, 'bout eight chains
Got four cribs, 'bout two planes, that space ship like Bruce Wayne
That slur in my talk, see that pimp in my walk
I be the prince in my city and you know we run New York
From that corner block to the big house
Hundred bottles stand on the couch
Now on them blogs when I read about you
Can't be with you, can't be without you
Damn, this shit cray, we gettin' wasted
Pour it up, money grown up
Shit done changed, I done blown up, huh
But shawty kept it hundred next to me
But dollar signs is all that I can see

Addicted, addicted
Ad-addicted, addicted
Addicted, addicted
Ad-addicted, addicted
Addicted, addicted
Ad-addicted, addicted
Addicted, addicted
Ad-addicted, addicted

I make music to numb your brain
I make music to numb your brain
