SIRENS Lyrics

[Intro: John Fannon & Travis Scott]
Every night, I look up in the sky
And the stars are all there
But when I look for you, you’re never there
Explorer, are you out there?
We had to spread out the word
Mmm

[Verse 1: Travis Scott]
I was too damn determined
Rap game, it needed refurbish
I was on top with no service
Watch as they all playin’ verses
They in the bushes, they lurkin’
Might gotta call the insurgents
She wanna fuck with a purpose
I gotta juggle my urges
Got a couple departments
Closet built like a department
Double up cup of the bourbon
How I give all of my sermons
Yeah, we still (Still)
Do things down to detail
Diva and the devil
Both them bad as he-ell
They get quiet when he yell (He yell)
Can’t silent my people
You locked in the prequel
Meet me at the festi-viel
Festi-vial
Foo, foo

[Verse 2: Travis Scott]
Now I got your attention (Look out)
It’s wide and beatin’ (Look out)
Vow this evenin’ (Look out)
You never leavin’ (Look-look-look-look-look-look)
Clock out, we sneak in (Look-look-look-look-look)
All the demons
Need a reason
Up from 2 A.M. to two in the afternoon (Look out)
It’s a festival right in my room (Look out)
Soon as the sun up, you know that we boom (Look out)
Mariposa, we out to Cancún (Look out)
We gon’ hustle more just before we out the room (Look out)
Back outside, it ain’t no time for Zooms (Look out)
One point two, that’s a whole lot of more vroom (Look out)
Three point two, that’s a whole lot of whole lot of (Look out)
It’s live, ‘member days that I couldn’t get by
There outside, it come with it inside
Now your venue, we gotta resize
I can’t give all this credit to Colgate
By the way I be rentin’ the smile (Look out, look out)
I know sometimes I be in denial (Look out, look out)
I know sometimes I be in the wild (Look out, look out)
How I rock in the, rock in the
Ah

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro: Drake]
I thought we were going to utopia?
What makes you say this isn’t utopia?
I mean, I don’t know, isn’t it supposed to be some perfect destination? This is just your hotel room
Yeah, it looks perfect to me

SIRENS Meaning

[Intro]
In this section, Travis contemplates distance and connection, using imagery of stars to suggest longing for someone who isn’t present. The mention of “explorer” could symbolize the journey to find or reach that person, indicating a search for fulfillment or meaning in his life.

[Verse 1]
Travis Scott reflects on his role in the rap industry, recognizing that it needs change or renewal. He refers to his success, noting that even at the top, he feels disconnected (“no service”). The mention of “insurgents” and being watched from the shadows implies that with success comes scrutiny and hidden threats. He talks about balancing his desires, such as romantic relationships and material pleasures, which add complexity to his life. The “closet built like a department” suggests extravagance and wealth, while “sermons” could symbolize him delivering messages or lessons, possibly about fame and temptation.

[Verse 2]
In this verse, Travis highlights the distractions and temptations he faces, symbolized by a “festival” in his room. He plays on the idea that while others see this as utopia, it’s actually filled with inner chaos. The reference to “Mariposa” (Spanish for butterfly) and Cancun implies escapism, and the lyrics also reference working hard and hustling, suggesting that Travis is caught between indulgence and ambition. The repetition of “look out” signals a warning to both himself and the audience about the dangerous temptations surrounding him.

[Outro]
Drake’s lines in this outro section provide a perspective that contrasts Travis’s experience. While Travis is overwhelmed by the chaos and distractions, Drake’s voice calmly questions whether this chaotic environment could be considered utopia. The dialogue reflects on the subjective nature of utopia, as what seems chaotic to one person might appear perfect to another.
