“Baggy” is about our animalistic qualities and the influences of drugs on the mind.
In an article for Gigwise, Wildhood explained the song’s context:

[Verse 1]
I got toothpaste on my head
Because I've got another spot
I think I took too many drugs
I think I've gone and lost the plot
I've told myself I've drank a little
Turns out, I've drunk a lot
I'm feeling vulnerable and brittle
I don't know when to stop
I said "ooh I think she likes me"
Maybe she doesn't
Swear I didn't care an hour ago
But fuck it yo I'm buzzin
You'd think I'd be conservative
But acting up in public
But I've got an appetite for self destruction
Oh, I've got an appetite
Yeah, I'll take a massive bite
Ya ya ya ya ya ya
[Verse 2]
I've got something in my pocket
It ain't love nor funds
It's a, magical powder
That makes love feel numb
If the night's still young
You can bet your bottom dollar
I'll be rattling my dummy
In a constant state of wonder
Ey yo, it's often conjured by the whisky on the table
When it's flowing through the notion over moral to the fable
Ey yo, I'm unavailable
If you want the real me
[Chorus]
Oooh, ah ah oh
Oh, it really kills me
Oooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
This isn't the real me
Oooh, ooh ooh ooh
Oh, it really kills me
Oooh, ooh ooh ooooh
This isn't the real me
This ain't the real me
This ain't the real me
I was in a baggy
[Verse 3]
I'm hoping that I hike and live the troubles that I carry
I'm a druggy in the eyes of every Tom, Dick, or Harry
Every long-toothed cabby
Every confused nanny
The search for mum and daddy in the bottom of a baggy
Oh, in a baggy
Oh, in a baggy
The search for mum and daddy in the bottom of a baggy
The search for mum and daddy in the bottom of a-
[Chorus]
Oooh, ah ah oh
Oh, it really kills me
Oooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
This isn't the real me
Oooh, ooh ooh ooh
Oh, it really kills me
Oooh, ooh ooh ooooh
This isn't the real me
This ain't the real me
This ain't the real me
[Bridge]
Oh, lift up your baggy, yeah
What's in your baggy, yeah
What's in your baggy, yeah
What's in your baggy
The search for mum and daddy in the bottom of a baggy, yeah
What's in your baggy, yeah
What's in your baggy
The search for mum and daddy in the bottom of a baggy, yeah
What's in your baggy, yeah
What's in your baggy
The search for mum and daddy in the bottom of a baggy, yeah
What's in your baggy, yeah
What's in your baggy
The search for mum and daddy in the bottom of a baggy, yeah
