Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I feel like I'm losin' my mind, and I miss you
I feel like I'm wastin' my time, gotta dismiss you, bitch
I feel like I'm losin' my mind, and I miss you
(I feel like I'm losin' my mind)
Make one call, and my niggas outside
If one of mine fall, five of yours gon' die
They gotta keep the grip on 'em for like 365, 'cause
I feel like I'm losin' my mind without my pistol
Boy, you better not come outside
'Cause we gon' hit you
I feel like I'm losin' my mind, gotta dismiss you
I feel like I'm wastin' my time, gotta forget you
I feel like I'm losin' my mind, gotta dismiss you
I feel like I'm losin' my mind, even though I miss you
I be up 'til dawn, I be stuck on the grind
Fell in love with the paper, now I ain't got no time, gotta dismiss you
Damn, don't trip, boo, everybody goes through this shit too
Damn, you know I miss you
Left for some months and now you brand new
I feel like I'm losin' my mind, yeah
Feel like I'm losin' my mind
Bitch
The lyrics to "Losing My Mind" by JACKBOYS and Sheck Wes describe the feeling of going crazy after a breakup. The singer is struggling to cope with the loss of their partner and feels like their time is being wasted in mourning. They mention making a call for their friends to come over, possibly to distract them from their thoughts, but also hint at the idea of violence by saying that if someone from their group falls, they will retaliate by taking out five others. They feel like they need their gun to restore their sense of power and control in the world. The lyrics ultimately reveal that, even though the singer misses their ex, they recognize that it is time to move on and start anew.
One interesting fact about the song is that it was released as a part of a compilation album called "JACKBOYS" by the JACKBOYS, an American hip-hop collective founded by Travis Scott. The album was released on December 27, 2019, and featured several collaborations with other artists. Another fact is that the song features Sheck Wes, who is known for his hit song "Mo Bamba" that went viral in 2018. "Losing My Mind" was one of the few tracks on the album where Sheck Wes was featured.
The beat of the song was produced by Jasper Harris, who is also known as Jasper Sheff. Harris has previously worked with artists such as Mick Jenkins and Robb Banks. Another interesting fact is that the song was one of the first tracks released by the JACKBOYS after being signed to the label Cactus Jack Records, which is owned by Travis Scott.
