State of Mind
J.I.D(SVR) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yo my nigga start
Hold up bro I gotta take a fuckin shit bruh damn
(He gotta shit!!!)
Straight out the dungeons of rap
The codeine drops
Deep as does my weed
I never sleep cause to sleep
Is the brother of breed
Beyond the walls of rap
Life is defined
I think of drugs when I'm in a Moe state of mind
Hope the screed got some lead
My breed don't like no dirty speed
Run up to the read and get the feed
In a Moe state of mind
What more could you ask for?
The grimy codeine?
You complain about 80
I gotta love it though
Somebody still gotta speak to the chase
I'm rappin' to the resume
And I'm gonna move your k
Fucin crazy intelligently challenged
Like a snake
Boy I told you I thought you were a lake
I can't take the me i can't take the percs
I woulda tried to rap I guess I got no fireworks
I'm rappin to the black And I'm gonna move your crack
Yo in a Moe state of mind
When I was young I had no works
I waz kicked out without any networks
I never thought I'd see that quirks
Ain't a soul alive that could take my niggas waterworks
A stupid k is quite the play
Bro fuck off with your stupid spray Bring the k you're gonna have no say And your gonna have to fuckin pay
Straight out the dungeons of rap
The codeine drops
Deep as does my weed
I never sleep cause to sleep
Is the brother of breed
Beyond the walls of rap
Life is defined
I think of drugs when I'm in a Moe state of mind
Hope the screed got some lead
My breed don't like no dirty speed
Run up to the read and get the feed
In a Moe state of mind
What more could you ask for?
The grimy codeine?
You complain about 80
I gotta love it though
Somebody still gotta speak to the chase
I'm rappin' to the resume
And I'm gonna move your k
Fucin crazy intelligently challenged
Like a snake
Boy I told you I thought you were a lake
I can't take the me i can't take the percs
I woulda tried to rap I guess I got no fireworks
I'm rappin to the black And I'm gonna move your crack
Yo in a Moe state of mind
When I was young I had no works
I waz kicked out without any networks
I never thought I'd see that quirks
Ain't a soul alive that could take my niggas waterworks




A stupid k is quite the play
Bro fuck off with your stupid spray Bring the k you're gonna have no say And your gonna have to fuckin pay

Overall Meaning

In "State of Mind", J.I.D(SVR) uses clever wordplay and imagery to depict a state of mind that is heavily influenced by drugs. He starts by acknowledging the origins of rap and the powerful influence that codeine has on him. The use of drugs is so deep-rooted in his state of mind that he can't even sleep without them. However, he recognizes that his breed, or people like him, don't like dirty speed, and they are more likely to prefer codeine.


He then mentions how life is defined outside of rap, but when he is in a "Moe state of mind", he only thinks of drugs. He talks about his distaste for those who complain about lesser drugs like 80, when he is content with the powerful effects of codeine. Despite the negative effects of drugs, someone has to speak the truth to those who chase them. He concludes by rapping about how he would sell drugs to make a living, despite the risks involved.


The lyrics come together to paint a picture of the conflicting emotions and desires that come with addiction. Though J.I.D(SVR) is presumably aware of the harm of drugs, he is still compelled by their euphoria and the opportunities that come with selling them. In the end, the state of mind he's in seems to be a tragic one where he is a victim of his own desires.
