In My Mind
Dot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The stars aligned one day
And you opened up a door in my heart
I didn't know existed
But I've never been the same since we began to sway
Twisting, gliding, leaping, hiding
Soaring, flowing, hoping, knowing
Like a mystery you move me
Oh I didn't know how love would be
Oh I didn't know, how love would set me free
Didn't you know you'd love me for me
Oh you are the dance in my heart
You send me through outer space
From a world that left me bruised and scarred
I know that I have shifted
You fill my life with grace. I'm lifted in your warm embrace!
Twisting, gliding, leaping, hiding
Soaring, flowing, hoping, knowing
Didn't know how love would be
Oh I didn't know, how love would set me free
Didn't you know you'd love me for me
Oh you are the dance in my heart!
You are the dance in my heart
the palpitations that I feel-
You make it beat like an art!
Together we flow through fast and slow
The turns and bends they seem as though
I'm elevated when I'm low
My heart is full my mind is blown
Didn't know how love would be
Oh I didn't know, how love would set me free
Lovin' how you let me be me
Oh you are the dance in my heart
You make my life so flow! So glad, no more runnin' solo!
Didn't know how love would be
Oh I didn't know, how love would set me free
Lovin' how you let me love me




Oh you are the dance in my heart
Yes you are the dance in my heart!

Overall Meaning

In "In My Mind," Dot raps about his determination to make it in the music industry, his loyalty to his brothers, and his desire for material success. He expresses his confidence in his ability to succeed, saying that he's "still trying" despite not having made it all the way yet. He also describes his willingness to defend himself and his crew, saying that they are all "lions" who are prepared to fight or shoot if necessary.


The opening lines describe Dot's crew as financially and musically successful: "All my brothers down to go / They riding / Got them bands / I hit the bro up, where we flying." He then describes his own desire for success and the material goods that come with it: "I been running to the bag / I feel like lighting / I might fuck a bitch / Then take her to an island / Pick her up, and i know / She gon like how i live." However, he also asserts that he isn't interested in unnecessary drama: "I ain't with the extra / Let's just keep on vibing / Tried to play me like a fool / So i said bye bitch."


The second verse continues Dot's theme of financial success and loyalty, but also adds hints of danger and aggression: "When i get a milli / Ima get a cool whip / Tryna switch up on the flow / I'm on some new shit / That's my bro / There ain't no fool in him / TTG / We trained to go / We gonna do ya man." He also references his use of drugs to help him "focus on the money," but says he won't let it make him cry: "My pain been runnin hella deep / But i still won't cry / Got the medical / that makes you think you gon fly."
