Travis Scott's song 'beibs in the trap,' featuring NAV, delves into the decadent and hedonistic lifestyle involving drugs, partying, and the high life. The song's title and lyrics reference drug use through clever wordplay and incorporate elements of status symbolism, such as luxury brands and cars. The track metaphorically equates the white color of cocaine to the pop star Justin Bieber, playing on the notion of addiction and lightheartedly linking drug use with celebrity fandom.
The beginning of 'beibs in the trap' sets the mood with NAV singing about mixing codeine with soda and adding candy for flavor, casting a shadow over the track's upbeat tempo with the dark reality of substance abuse.
As NAV continues, the listener is introduced to a party scene characterized by drug use and loose morality. The narrative suggests a hollow, repetitive cycle of indulgence, with women being typified by their drug use and a callous attitude towards relationships becomes apparent.
The emotional journey descends further as NAV acknowledges the presence of 'demons,' hinting at the darker side of their lifestyle choices and inner turmoil that comes from confrontations with law enforcement and the reality of addiction. His verses illustrate a detachment and disregard for the consequences of his actions.
Travis Scott’s verse dives into the physical effects of drug use, touching on the lethargy and dangers associated with heavy consumption. He also indicates a sense of disconnection, failing to contact his accountant while high in the Hollywood Hills, signifying his immersion in a disjointed reality.
"With a white bitch sniffin' on Bieber"
This line employs a play on words, likening cocaine to Justin Bieber due to its white color. It reflects how pop culture references are used to euphemize drug use, with 'Bieber' serving as a metaphor for cocaine's allure and addictive nature.
"Are you sure you wanna party with the demons?"
NAV warns a woman about the drawbacks of joining their party where drugs are prevalent. 'Demons' symbolize both the people and the substances that can lead to moral and physical downfall.
"Told Frost, 'Bring the water,' no Fiji"
NAV requests a type of 'water' that is not the branded bottled water Fiji, implying a request for a liquid substance used for drug consumption rather than actual water.
"Tryna text my accountant, ain't no service in the mountains"
Travis Scott points out the isolation of his opulent lifestyle in the Hollywood Hills, physically and metaphorically cut off from normalcy due to both the location and his drug-induced state.
