[Verse 1]
Baby, let me fuck your mind
I promise I'll do it softly
Afterwards, we'll buy cigarettes and coffee
I swear, I swear that I have demons inside me
They're tellin' me that I'm the greatest thing since Hammurabi
They're fuckin' with me
I wish that I could spend my day singin' and smokin'
Marijuana on the counter, I ain't jokin'
Medulla oblongata, I'm an impulse
You shouldn't have to think too hard to love me
Though I'm sinful

[Chorus]
Let me make love to your mind
Let me make love to your mind
Let me make love to your mind
Let me make love to your mind

[Outro]
Let me make love to your mind
Let me make love to your mind
Let me make love to your mind
Let me make love to your mind
Let me make love to your mind

The world has come to understand R&B/Soul music as a multi-faceted genre that transcends soundwaves into the inner core of our existence — a genre that makes listeners feel, rather than just hear. For Toronto native, Ashton Simmonds, who performs under the stage name, Daniel Caesar (born April 5, 1995), the R&B/Soul genre serves as a skeleton to which he builds up with jarring gospel undertones, heart-tugging guitar chords, and soothing harmonious vocals.

His sophomore effort, Praise Break, successfully captured the attention of many major publications and outlets and was ranked 19th in the 20 Best R&B Albums of 2014 by Rolling Stone Magazine. Caesar’s follow-up project, Pilgrim’s Paradise, was met with even greater praise, subsequently capturing the attention of both the Canadian and international music markets.

On August 25, 2017, Daniel released his debut album, Freudian, which followed the release of “We Find Love” and “Blessed,” and contains hit songs, “Best Part” and “Get You.” In 2018, Freudian was nominated for Best R&B Album at the Grammys.
