Low End
Black Party Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I′m your Ice Cube, you my Nia Long It's Friday feeling breeze
As we cruise down the highway She lay back and relax
I wonder if I sit sideways Sippin' on sizzurp [?] No greater love by Sade
Smellin′ like Chanel No. 5 Darlin′ I know you love it
I can see it in your eyes Whispering sweet nothings in your ear
Hop in my spaceship, girl Let's get high I wanna go to paradise She wanna go too
Take a walk through the garden And when we roll through
I′m just looking for a cloud And we can float too I wanna go to paradise She wanna go too
Take a walk through the garden And when we roll through
She say she wanna do drugs I let her roll too
I'm just looking for a cloud And we can float too Let′s get away Far away
There's a place that we can go I wanna explore the gardens baby
Just let me know if you wanna go
Let′s get away Far away
To a place you've never been Leave all of your problems baby And let them go to the wind I wanna go to paradise She wanna go too
Take a walk through the garden And when we roll through
She say she wanna do drugs I let her roll too
I'm just looking for a cloud And we can float too I wanna go to paradise She wanna go too
Take a walk through the garden And when we roll through
She say she wanna do drugs I let her roll too
I′m just looking for a cloud And we can float too
"Low End" by Black Party is a song about escaping reality and going on a journey with a special someone to find paradise. The lyrics portray a feeling of wanting to be free, to wander off into a place unknown, and indulge in a world of pleasure. The song's first line, "you know you're the one I can't leave alone," suggests that the singer is in love with someone and feels unable to let them go. The following line, "I'm your Ice Cube, you my Nia Long," refers to the famous pairing of actors in the film Friday, and by using that reference, the singer is showing how close and intimate they feel with their lover.
The song's chorus "I wanna go to paradise, she wanna go too, take a walk through the garden, and when we roll through, she say she wanna do drugs, I let her roll too," talks about the singer's desire for ecstasy and his willingness to indulge in drugs with his beloved. They want to escape from reality and go to a place where they can be happy together, and the only thing that can help them achieve that is by getting high.
The singer's yearning for freedom is set to a dreamy R&B melody that is both slow-paced and hazy, giving the song a surreal feeling. The song's ambiance draws in listeners and immerses them in the music's message, evoking a sense of longing for a break from their everyday lives.
