The lyrics to iBall's song "Mind Games" address the concept of being manipulated and played with emotionally by a romantic partner. The repetition of the phrase "Mind games" emphasizes the central theme of psychological manipulation. The mention of "shorty" suggests that it is directed towards a female partner, but the lyrics can be interpreted more broadly to encompass anyone who engages in such behavior.
The line "Gonna give me migraines" suggests that the mind games being played are causing stress and confusion, reminiscent of a headache. The mention of migraines and the subsequent line "Gonna drive me insane" highlight the negative impact these games are having on the singer's mental state.
The line "Smoking on that propane" is a metaphorical reference to using drugs, specifically marijuana, to cope with the emotional turmoil caused by the mind games. The mention of Kurt Cobain, the late musician who died by suicide, adds to the intensity of the emotions expressed in the lyrics.
The lyrics also touch on the singer's distaste for past relationships and exes. They express a nonchalant attitude towards past partners, stating "I say fuck exes" and hinting at possibly pursuing the best friend of an ex. This further reinforces the idea that the singer is fed up with previous experiences and seeks something different.
Overall, "Mind Games" portrays the frustration, confusion, and mental strain caused by manipulative behaviors in relationships. The lyrics illustrate the singer's desire for a change and their struggle to maintain their sanity in the face of these mind games.

With blues faces on these hoes
Showing off wealth and success to women

Avoiding conflicts with enemies
Louis v be on my clothes
Wearing expensive Louis Vuitton clothing
Bankroll yeah I cannot fold
I won't lose my money
Old bread, it got mold
Neglected or outdated possessions
He got time and still told
Betraying despite having time to reflect
She online I got gold
Impressing her with my wealth and status
Diamonds on me, they so cold
Wearing expensive, icy jewelry
She like I love isaac, treat me better than my exes
Claiming to love me and requesting better treatment than previous partners
Hope she really mean it cause the last one moved to Texas
Wishing for sincerity as the previous partner left
I say fuck exes
Disregarding past relationships
I’m gone fuck the Bestfriend’s
Planning to engage in sexual activities with friends of the girl
Playing mind games man these girls should be arrested...
Girls are engaging in manipulative tactics that should be considered illegal
I just popped a perky
Consuming the drug Percocet
Now i’m itchin to get rid of her
Feeling an intense desire to end the relationship
Took her ona date
Went on a date with her
Now she full
She is satisfied and content
She my dinner bruh
Referring to her as his meal, a possession
I Didn’t like how it ended
Unhappy with the outcome or conclusion
Shawty wore my heart
The girl had control over his emotions and feelings
Round her neck like a pendant
Symbolically displaying ownership or attachment
(And yuhh!)
Expressing agreement or satisfaction
Back to the mind games
Returning to manipulative tactics
Had to switch it up
Changing approach or strategy
Like it’s spring with a time change
Making a comparison to the change of seasons
If i shoot my shot
Taking a chance or attempting something
Bet I won’t miss
Confident in not failing or being unsuccessful
I got high aim
Having ambitious goals or objectives
Now i’m take your soul
Emotionally or mentally possessing and controlling someone
And your mind bitch this is my game
Dominating and manipulating someone's thoughts and emotions
But wait...
However, there's more to consider
I’m bipolar
Revealing a mental condition characterized by mood swings
This a disclosure break my heart
Sharing personal information, causing emotional pain
CANT GET CLOSURE
Unable to find resolution or understanding
But shawty i’m a souldier
Asserting strength and resilience despite challenges
And these lil niggas posers
Referring to others as fake or inauthentic
And ima end it all and do uzi with my shoulders!
Considering self-harm with a firearm
(Ya!)
Expressing agreement or satisfaction
