If I statically link is my code inherintly LGPL or could I still license MIT?

If LGPL was "viral" even when linking dynamically, there would be no point in it (it'd be like GPL).

So, yes. You can use MIT.

Of course, the dynamic dependency still remains LGPL.

Yes and no. LGPL only is non-viral if the end user can trivially replace the linked library with their own version.
