Verse 1

Big communication, tell me what you want
Translate your vibration, let your body talk to me
Baby love, if you wanna show me what
You’ve been schemin’ up, if you wanna (Let go)
Trust the simulation, don’t you let it break
Every stimulation, promise I can take
What you wanna give? Boy, you better show me what
You’ve been schemin’ up

He wants his partner to know that no matter how you say it I promise I will understand. It could also mean he wants to get down and dirty and he can take anything thrown at him. “What you wanna give? Boy, you better show me what you’ve been scheming up” Hes talking to his partner again and asking him to show what he wants to do and to let his mind wander.

(Chorus)

I feel the rush
Addicted to your touch
Oh, I feel the rush
It’s so good, it’s so good
I feel the rush
Addicted to your touch
Oh, I feel the rush
It’s so good, it’s so good

Pass your boy the heatwave, recreate the sun
Take me to the feeling, boy, you know the one
Kiss it when you’re done, man, this shit is so much fun
Pocket rocket gun
