Confidence, Growth, Peace. These are the three qualities artist JClay displays in his infectious new single ‘Get Your Mind Right’. The track starts with an explosive chorus that immediately gives you a taste of JClay’s ingenious wordplay, delivered over an ethereal beat produced by ‘Sweet Like Twinkie’ that will instantly have you swaying your head to the music.
While the track has a starry energy that's meant to get you moving, it's also a vocal testament to how a person can overcome the brutal pains of the past, and fully embrace themselves in the present. JClay does this by explaining some difficult truths he had to face for himself by acknowledging and moving past his own doubts and fears, which he poetically delivers with a little bit of humor and playful braggadocio thrown in for good measure.
Besides shedding negativity, JClay makes an important point of the dangers that come with seeking inner peace through external sources, citing his own realizations of how giving in to lust won't serve as medicine for the heart or the soul. While the topics JClay tackles are personal and thought-provoking, it's a track that wants you to celebrate yourself and send out good vibes for all to hear.
lyrics
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
My mind's always mines, right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
My mind's always mines, right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
My mind's always mines, right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
My mind's always mines, right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
My mind's always mines, right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
Get ya mind right
My mind's always mines, right
I had a doubt, what's that about
I didn't think I could do what I'm doin, what
Stressing 'bout accounts and amounts
Feeling like I'm 'bout to be ruined
Naw, ay ay this can't be though
I'm a shiner, I'm the sun, I'm actin below
I'm definitely definishing evil
Cuz my joy my boy I'm trying to veto
I can't do that no mo
Won't share no pain for pleasure, peace, or promo
Cuz when you share, yeah you make it normal
You respect what isn't there and treat it formal-ly
See
Me
Right now I'm at peace
I'm jammin to the flows on my CDs
Nuts if you choose not to hear with me
Be here now, now be here, here now be
I saw a frame on a dame
Thinking bout what she could do for me though
Didn't care for personality or name
Just a body, any body, that do kegels
I placed my salvation then in bodies like
Save me baby, save me baby, guide me
Inside me there was a desire that obvi
Kept me deprived by believing I needed what's outside me
To feel complete
Like I'm incomplete
Then prepare feats
I must compete
To get inner peace
Like there's enemies
So I don't succeed
Cuz could never see
I was unaware
I could never find what was never there
Is this glare blinding
Or shining reminding me
I'm outta line
I mean I'm not aligned
I'm finding me
If I'm in my mind, then what am I looking for
I must be out my mind, I'm overlooking those
Still rapping like I'm not them other rappers
Plenty listeners like you, thinking I'm the last dragon
But really I'm just shonuff in the habit of retracting what was lacking
I just sit back get my glow and go bananas
Smoothie I mean smoothly
I make my moves move me
Tryna migrate vibrate like I'm UV
I'm usually forgetful and forgive-full
Just like that I'm here for
You and yo enemies
Let's always be this cheerful yeah
