Friday the 13th
Mindscape & Jade Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why try? bathe in cyanide
minds eye decide
we all die high
Surprise!
let it off like a bass canon
mistakes happen,
we stay clappin
they Manhattan
we that King Kong, climb with gorilla ish
strictly business, bare witness
break it down, a means to an end
run and hide when we out for revenge!
Friday the 13th, Freddy meets Jason
chasing fakers blatant
get a replacement facelift
face it, wide open spaces
insomniacs attack
ya call it Faithless
I can't get no sleep,
living affects my dream
who be the next to bleed with me
vendetta with veteran settlers




we better than Letterman,
late night we be getting at teams

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Mindscape and Jade’s song ‘Friday The 13th’ is about the ruthless and unforgiving nature of the streets where people die every day. The opening line “Why try? bathe in cyanide minds eye decide we all die high” sets the mood of the song which is nihilistic and fatalistic. The singer suggests that there is no point in trying to escape the inevitable end of our lives and instead, one should embrace it. The line “we all die high” might be interpreted as a metaphor for people living in constant danger and fear where death could come at any moment. The chorus of the song is “Friday the 13th, Freddy meets Jason chasing fakers blatant get a replacement facelift face it, wide open spaces,” where the singer warns the “fakers” to be careful because everyone is replaceable and can be easily forgotten. The mention of the horror movies like ‘Friday the 13th’ and ‘Freddy Vs. Jason’ adds an element of violence and unpredictability to the song.


The next lines “insomniacs attack ya call it Faithless I can't get no sleep, living affects my dream who be the next to bleed with me” suggest that the singer suffers from insomnia and is constantly haunted by the thoughts of death and violence. The line “living affects my dream” implies that reality is so harsh and unforgiving that it affects the singer’s dreams as well. The singer then talks about seeking revenge against those who have wronged him/her. The line “vendetta with veteran settlers we better than Letterman, late night we be getting at teams” implies that the singer is part of a group that seeks revenge against those who have mistreated them. The song ends with the singer warning the others to stay away from them because they are dangerous and unforgiving.
