Foreign/National Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here we go, come with me
There's a world out there that we should see
Take my hand, close your eyes (SB on the track)
With you right here, I'm a rocketeer, let's fly (uh)

Walk in the store, get whatever you want (whatever)
That's my bitch (oh, yeah)
Paris, Tokyo, London, I took her on all of my trips (all)
I tried to show you what's real (yeah)
You ain't like them other hoes I hit (no, no)
I introduced you to real
Baby, ain't nobody else like this (oh, no)
Off of the liquor, I reminisce, Hennessey up in my system (I'm waitin')
Bae, I'm a player, I fuck up a lot
But it ain't the same when I'm with them (you)
Uh, baby, you different, uh, or maybe I'm trippin' (for real)
If I lost it all tomorrow, tell me, would you still be with me? (Whoa-oh)

Uh, whenever I see her, she comin' horny (uh)
Everybody know I'm in love with shorty
I ain't none of them niggas that come before me
She was with me back when I was young and corny
If I tell her I need her, she comin' for me
When she stare at it, feel like there's somethin' on me
Made me feel like these bitches got nothin' for me
She don't want me to have it (nah, have it)
She'll hold mine (uh)
If we ever get pulled over with the chop'
She takin' the charge and a whole nine
I don't really know where I met her in '09
I was lit, she was curvin' the whole time
They was thinkin' she payin' me no mind
But I knew I would have her in no time (woo)
Livin' reckless, huh (livin' reckless)
In the crib drinkin' and walkin' 'round naked
We order a piña colada for breakfast (woo, woo)
And we sexin', huh (we sexin')
No Instagram, no textin'
Turn off the light and I fuck her to Netflix (woo)

Walk in the store, get whatever you want (whatever, uh)
That's my bitch (oh yeah, uh)
Paris, Tokyo, London, I took her on all of my trips (all)
I tried to show you what's real (yeah)
You ain't like them other hoes I hit (no, no)
I introduced you to real
Baby, ain't nobody else like this (oh, no)
Off of the liquor, I reminisce, Hennessey up in my system (I'm waitin')
Bae, I'm a player, I fuck up a lot
But it ain't the same when I'm with them (you)
Uh, baby, you different, uh, or maybe I'm trippin' (for real)
If I lost it all tomorrow, tell me, would you still be with me? (Whoa-oh)

Come with me
There's a world out there that we should see
Take my hand, close your eyes
With you right here, I'm a rocketeer, let's fly




Up, up, here we go, go
Up, up, here we go, go

Overall Meaning

The song “Paris” by Foreign/National is about a man who takes his significant other on trips to different parts of the world, including Paris, Tokyo, and London. He emphasizes that he tries to show her what’s real and that she is different from the other people he’s been with. The song also mentions their sexual relationship and their bond as a couple. The chorus of the song repeats the lines “Walk in the store, get whatever you want, that's my bitch, Paris, Tokyo, London, I took her on all of my trips, I tried to show you what's real, you ain't like them other hoes I hit, I introduced you to real, baby, ain't nobody else like this” which conveys that the singer is loyal to his partner and wants to show her the world.


The song’s lyrics, while direct, can also be seen as somewhat problematic, objectifying the partner when referring to her as “my bitch” and comparing her to other women. However, the song can also be interpreted as celebrating the joy of traveling and the happiness that comes from experiencing new things together as a couple.


Overall, the lyrics of “Paris” convey both the singer’s commitment to their partner and his desire for a life of adventure and travel.
