Jorja Smith - Addicted Lyrics

Jorja Smith Lyrics

"Addicted"

Too far in it, too far gone
She knows what's in it, she knows what's wrong
She just can't quit it, her heart's so numb
Hurts to live it but worse to run

Waits for the night time, day's no fun
Got a call from her brother, said he's concerned
You lied about your work and I haven't seen you in months
There's no light in your eyes and she won't open them

The hardest thing
You are not addicted to me
I'm the only thing you should need
You should be addicted to me

The hardest thing
I am too selfless to leave
You're the only thing that I need
You should be addicted to me

What life are you living? It can't really be real
Pushing over limits, you can't even feel
Can we drink just not to care, not care just to drink
Can't that be enough and not take too much?

The hardest thing
You are not addicted to me
I'm the only thing you should need
You should be addicted to me

The hardest thing
I am too selfless to leave
You're the only thing that I need
You should be addicted to me

You don't see what I do
I try to defend you
It's hard not to offend you
But you're not mind to tend to

You don't see what I do
I try to defend you
It's hard not to offend you
But you're not mind to tend to

The hardest thing
You are not addicted to me
I'm the only thing you should need
You should be addicted to me

The hardest thing
I'm too selfless to leave
You're the only thing that I need
You should be addicted to me

"Addicted" was Jorja Smith's first single of 2021. The song was released on the 10th of March accompanied by a music video co-directed by Smith and Savanah Leaf. The visuals were filmed entirely on webcam, and Smith told about them, "The video is multiple versions of me singing the song; having fun dressing up, not trying to be too serious and just giving myself more freedom."

Jorja Smith explained that this song was inspired by "focusing on wanting the full attention of someone who's not giving enough (or any) when they should be".
