سكران drunk

This descriptive word completes the 'become' verb and so takes the accusative ending the verb assigns to its predicate. Its shape is the pattern Arabic uses for someone overcome by a state, here 'drunk'. The accusative is the grammatical tie binding it to the unspoken 'you' as the state that 'you' end up in.
