Static
Steve Lacy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby, you got somethin' in your nose
Sniffin' that K, did you feel the hole?
Hope you find peace for yourself
New boyfriend ain't gon' fill the void
Do you even really like this track?
Take away the drugs, would you feel the noise?
More and more you try to run away
You fucking yourself, do you feel the toy?

Uh, lookin' for a bitch 'cause I'm over boys
Would you be my girlfriend, baby?
Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Somethin' turned me off
Smoking made me
'Cause I'm longing
For somethin' secure
If you had to (if you) stunt your shining (oh, nah-nah-nah-nah-nah)
For your lover, dump that fucker

Shoo-doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Shoo-doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo




Shoo-doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Shoo-doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, no

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Steve Lacy's song "Static" are complex and deal with themes such as drug addiction, loneliness, and self-destructive behaviors. The opening lines, "Baby, you got somethin' in your nose, sniffin' that K, did you feel the hole?" refer to the use of the drug Ketamine, which can be snorted through the nose, leading to a feeling of disassociation or a "hole." The lyrics speak to an individual in need of finding peace within themselves and suggest that a new partner won't fulfill the void. The line "More and more you try to run away, you fucking yourself, do you feel the toy?" refers to the addictive cycle of drug use and the way it can become a mechanism for avoiding confronting deeper problems.


The song then transitions to Lacy speaking about his own desire for a relationship that is safe and secure, free from the drama of hooking up with boys. The line "For somethin' secure, if you had to stunt your shining" speaks to the way we often sacrifice ourselves for the security of a stable relationship. The chorus "Shoo-doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo" is repetitive and can be interpreted as a way of drowning out the noise and static of modern life.
