LOST FOREVER Lyrics
[Part I]
[Intro: Chuck Senrick & James Blake]
Have you ever been lost?
Have you ever been lost?
Forever
[Verse: Travis Scott, James Blake & Chuck Senrick]
Lost on islands, driven in boat cars
Just bring your girl, feel like she both ours
Young black nigga work at the Auchans (Auchans)
So how we here trapped on the ocean?
‘Bout to go up a level of disrespectful
I’m just one chain away from goin’ heavy metal
I’m just one angel away from blockin’ out the devil
Just one mountain away from meetin’ all my rebels
Too much power, too many hours all in a day
I sent her flowers, ain’t talkin roses, I’m talkin’ maoda
Ask if she “ha-ha-ha”, I wouldn’t doubt it
Took her through the Hills at noon, she felt the (And how wonderful, how wonderful)
Baby girl think she in Honolu’ (Wonderful)
Don’t you know you in the I-5 loop? (How wonderful)
How many chickens fit in the coupe? (How wonderful, wonderful)
Wonderful, she don’t wanna leave
She jump up, bounce back like trampoline (Have you ever been lost?)
[Part II]
[Verse 1: Westside Gunn]
Ayo, whip the cocaine ’til the pot bust (‘Til the pot bust, ah)
You was on the porch, I was locked up (I was locked up, ah)
Two-tone Maybach truck with the MAC-12 (Skrrt, MAC-12)
Think a nigga shot somethin’ (Ah)
Put it to your face, watch a motherfucker blow (Boo-boo-boo-boo-boom)
Daytona, different color face on the Ro’ (Ah)
Ten on his head, he be dead by the mornin’ (By the mornin’)
I can get thirty for the stove (Ah)
Dior trench shit hang to the floor (Ah)
Dior goggles, I ain’t playin’ with you hoes (Uh-uh)
Out in South Beach with the poles in the Rolls (Skrrt, boo-boo-boo-boo-boom)
Good to see ya dudes, alligators on the toes (Ah)
Fashion week, I almost tripped two bitches (Ah)
Hundred-round drum, make a nigga go get it (Make a nigga go get it, grrt)
John L. Sullivan, bucket while we drillin’ (Boo-boo-boo-boo-boom)
Had to sneak my new Glock up in Lenox (Ah)
Free Sly Green, he got Wayne Perry digits
Socks Burberry, dick sucks on the visit (Ah, brrt, boo-boo-boo-boo-boom)
[Verse 2: Travis Scott & Westside Gunn]
First one to pop, first to earn the stripes (Stripes)
Three strikes in, twenty-five to life (Uh-uh)
Hyping up the building, hyping up the sights (Sights)
Whip got the wings of angel kit
I been wanting this shit my whole life, I didn’t pray for it
She want me to come into his house but I can’t kick it
She want the whole dub-dub E, but I ain’t convinced
Never met her she, but she met Sheck, she don’t need a prince
Took her off the O into the D, she ain’t take offense
Way we got it bouncin’ off the boards we making prints
Wait until I step into the floor and then they commence
LOST FOREVER Meaning
[Part I]
[Intro: Chuck Senrick & James Blake]
The intro sets the tone for the song, posing the question of being lost, which reverberates throughout the track. The repeated line emphasizes the ongoing nature of feeling adrift in life.
[Verse: Travis Scott, James Blake & Chuck Senrick]
In this section, Travis expresses a sense of being trapped in a luxurious yet isolating lifestyle. The imagery of being “lost on islands” and “driven in boat cars” symbolizes a paradox of wealth and freedom that simultaneously creates a feeling of entrapment. The references to power and respect highlight the burdens that come with success, as he feels the pressure of expectations and the lurking presence of negativity in his life.
[Part II]
[Verse 1: Westside Gunn]
Westside Gunn’s verse contrasts with Travis’ introspective approach by delving into his gritty lifestyle. He paints a vivid picture of crime and luxury, intertwining the harsh realities of his past with the excesses of his current life. This juxtaposition serves to emphasize the lengths individuals go to escape their circumstances, reflecting the duality of survival and ambition in a harsh world.
[Verse 2: Travis Scott & Westside Gunn]
Here, Travis continues the theme of ambition but also hints at the cost of that ambition. The mention of “stripes” and “twenty-five to life” suggests the potential for serious consequences stemming from a life of risk and bravado. The imagery of wanting something his whole life yet not praying for it suggests a realization of the complexities of achieving one’s dreams and the sacrifices made along the way. The blending of his and Gunn’s narratives highlights a shared experience of navigating their environments while grappling with personal and external challenges.
