Drugs You Should Try It Lyrics – Travis Scott

[Intro]
The reversed lyrics in the intro set a surreal and disorienting tone, reflecting the song's theme of escaping reality. This backwards phrase creates a sense of confusion and mirrors the feeling of being lost in the night, getting ready to escape from the mundane.

[Chorus]
In the chorus, Travis Scott describes his pursuit of fleeting pleasures and the temporary satisfaction they bring. The lyrics suggest that he's been struggling and feeling lost but finds some solace in these indulgences, even though they only provide a momentary escape. The contrast between day and night emphasizes the cyclical nature of his emotions, where the brightness of the day can't fully mask the darkness of the night.

[Verse]
The verse delves into Travis Scott's experiences of living a fast-paced life, filled with non-stop partying and unstable relationships. He touches on the highs and lows of his life, including moments of passion and carelessness. The reference to playing the drums and rolling the drugs highlights the chaotic and hedonistic nature of his lifestyle. The mention of tattoos and hiding things from his mother adds a layer of secrecy and rebellion, while the rolling stones metaphor suggests a life constantly on the move without stability.

[Bridge]
In the bridge, Travis Scott reflects on the feeling of distance, both physical and emotional. The repeated phrase "miles and miles away" echoes the loneliness he feels, even when surrounded by people. This section reinforces the idea that despite his attempts to escape, he's still searching for something more meaningful.

[Outro]
The outro returns to the theme of being alone and yearning for connection. Travis Scott acknowledges the desire to escape through movement and dance, but ultimately, the night doesn't provide the fulfillment he's looking for. The repeated idea of "chasing the night away" underscores the endless pursuit of something that remains out of reach.
