On Your Mind
Virgil Blue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I stay depressed
I think they'll love me more
If I don't progress
I think they'll love me
Regardless of the things I do
Things I do
They couldn't hate me even if they wanted to
You couldn't leave me even if you wanted to
Forgive me you know that I only speak the truth
You know that my love was never meant for you
No telegraphing feelings you don't know my moves
I only play the game if I know I won't lose
I'm nothing like these niggas don't get it confused, yeah
Girl, I know
You think about me when you're all alone
You think about the things that you've been told
Coz with me baby you will lease you'll never own
Girl, I know
You think about me when I'm on the road
You think about the things that you've been told
Coz with me baby you will lease you'll never own
The one in front of the smoking gun
The one in front of the smoking gun
The one in front of the smoking gun
They'll remember me when it's all said and done
Yeah, it's me
The one who doesn't give a fuck
I'm out here moving like a vet no beginners luck
I'll leave em star struck with love in their eyes
Never reciprocate I'm not into spreading more lies
Coz I internalize the thoughts that I will prosper
Everyone that's hating is only spreading the gospel
Keep my sound on slow that's how I'm seeing my progress
But soon enough I'll speed it up I'm revving on full throttle
Girl, I know
You think about me when you're all alone
You think about the things that you've been told
Coz with me baby you will lease you'll never own
Girl, I know
You think about me when I'm on the road
You think about the things that you've been told
Coz with me baby you will lease you'll never own
Talking bout me
I know you'll never leave my side you're talking bout me
You know you're always on my mind
Like I'm on your mind
I'll never leave your mind
I'll stay on your side tonight
On your mind tonight
Leave your side no I
I'll never leave your side no I
In the verses of "On Your Mind" by Virgil Blue, the artist expresses a complex set of emotions and perceptions regarding how he believes others perceive him and how he views his own worth. The repeated lines "I think they'll love me more if I stay depressed, if I don't progress" reflect a deep-seated insecurity and sense of unworthiness that he grapples with. He seems to believe that his struggles and lack of advancement will somehow make him more appealing to others, which speaks to a profound sense of inadequacy and a desire for love and acceptance.
The artist also touches on themes of self-sufficiency and independence, suggesting that he doesn't rely on others for validation or approval. Lines like "They couldn't hate me even if they wanted to" and "You couldn't leave me even if you wanted to" convey a sense of defiance and self-assuredness, as if he is asserting his own worth and autonomy regardless of external opinions.
The chorus of the song delves into a relationship dynamic, where the artist acknowledges that the other person thinks about him when they are alone or on the road. The idea of being leased but never owned implies a temporary and perhaps superficial connection, highlighting a sense of detachment and emotional distance in the relationship. The repeated refrain "The one in front of the smoking gun, they'll remember me when it's all said and done" suggests a sense of legacy and lasting impact, as if the artist is determined to leave a mark on the world.
Towards the end of the song, there is a shift in tone as the artist seems to address the listener directly, assuring them that he will always be by their side and that they are always on his mind. This sense of loyalty and connection contrasts with the earlier themes of independence and self-reliance, showing a more vulnerable and intimate side to the artist's character. The repetition of the phrase "I'll never leave your side" reinforces a sense of commitment and steadfastness in the relationship, suggesting a deep emotional bond that transcends the artist's earlier musings on worth and perception.

JESUS KNOCKS ON YOUR HEART AND LONGS FOR YOU TO ANSWER! HE DOESN'T WANT TO SEE ANYONE PERISH INTO HELL. GOD LOVES YOU SO HE GIVES YOU FREE WILL AND A CHOICE TO ACCEPT HIM OR REJECT HIM. TO LOVE HIM OR TO LOVE SIN/THIS WORLD. CALL UPON JESUS & ASK HIM TO FORGIVE YOUR SINS! SURRENDER YOUR WILL & YOUR LIFE TO HIM & HE WILL GIVE YOU ETERNAL LIFE IN HEAVEN! PICTURE YOUR BEST DAY ON EARTH TIMES A BILLION FOR ETERNITY, THAT'S HEAVEN! NOW PICTURE YOUR WORST DAY ON EARTH TIMES A BILLION FOR ETERNITY, THAT'S HELL! HE WILL GIVE YOU WHAT YOU WANT SO IF YOU REJECT HIM YOU WILL BE SEPARATED FROM HIM & HIS BLESSINGS (LOVE, PEACE, JOY, HOPE, REST, ETC). IN HELL YOU WILL BE ALONE WITHOUT GOD OR PEOPLE... YOU WILL BE HOPELESS, IN DESPAIR & AGONY FOREVER!
GOD'S STANDARD FOR HEAVEN IS PERFECTION AND ONLY JESUS (THE SON OF GOD/GOD IN THE FLESH) LIVED THAT PERFECT LIFE! HE LAID DOWN HIS LIFE & TOOK THE WRATH OF THE FATHER ON THE CROSS FOR YOUR SINS! GOD IS JUST SO HE MUST PUNISH SIN & HE IS HOLY SO NO SIN CAN ENTER HIS KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. IF YOU ARE IN CHRIST ON JUDGEMENT DAY GOD WILL SEE YOU AS HIS PERFECT SON (SINLESS SINCE YOUR SINS ARE COVERED BY JESUS' OFFERING). YOU CAN ALSO CHOOSE TO REJECT JESUS' GIFT/SACRIFICE & PAY FOR YOUR OWN SIN WITH DEATH (HELL) BUT THAT SEEMS PRETTY FOOLISH! GOD SEES & HEARS EVERYTHING YOU HAVE SAID & DONE. YOU WONT WIN AN ARGUMENT WITH HIM & YOU CANT DEFEND ANY OF YOUR SINS TO HIM. YOU'RE NOT A GOOD PERSON, I'M NOT A GOOD PERSON... ONLY GOD IS GOOD! WE'RE ALL GUILTY WITHOUT ACCEPTING JESUS' SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS!
MUHAMMAD DIDN'T DIE FOR YOUR SINS, BUDDHA DIDN'T DIE FOR YOUR SINS, NO PASTOR/NO PRIEST/NO SAINT/NO ANCESTOR DIED FOR YOUR SINS, MARY DIDN'T DIE FOR YOUR SINS, NO IDOLS OR FALSE gods DIED FOR YOUR SINS, NO MUSICIAN OR CELEBRITY DIED FOR YOUR SINS, NO INFLUENCER OR YOUTUBE STAR DIED FOR YOUR SINS, NO SCIENTIST OR POLITICIAN DIED FOR YOUR SINS, NO ATHLETE OR ACTOR DIED FOR YOUR SINS! STOP WORSHIPING THESE PEOPLE!
JESUS CHRIST ALONE DIED FOR YOUR SINS & WAS RESURRECTED FROM THE GRAVE! HE IS ALIVE & COMING BACK VERY SOON WITH JUDGEMENT (THESE ARE END TIMES)! PREPARE YOURSELVES, TURN FROM SIN & RUN TO JESUS! HE KNOWS YOUR PAIN & TROUBLES, HE WANTS TO HEAL & RESTORE YOU! TALK TO HIM LIKE A BEST FRIEND! ASK HIM TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU & HELP YOU TO BELIEVE IF YOU DOUBT! DON'T WAIT TO CRY OUT! NO ONE IS PROMISED TOMORROW! HE LONGS FOR YOU TO INVITE HIM IN, HE LOVES YOU MORE THAN ANY PERSON EVER COULD, HE CREATED YOU!
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."-John 14:6
"But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven."-Matthew 10:33
“For the wages of sin is death (hell), but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord”-Romans 6:23
