Dancin', down there
I found you, somewhere out
'Round 'round there, right right there
Lost and beat up
Down there, dancin'
I found you, somewhere out
Right down there, right 'round there
Lost and, found out
Turned out, how you thought
Daddy, found out
How you turned out, how you turned out
If mama knew now
How you turned out, you too wild
You too wild, you too wild
You too wild, I need you now
Got to love you
Found you, found you
Right now, right now
Right now, right now
If your mama knew how
You turned out, you too wild
You too wild, you too wild
You too wild, and I need you now
Lost and found now
Cry, I'm not sorry
Cry, who needs sorry when there's Hennessey?
Don't fool yourself
Your eyes don't lie, you're much too good to be true
Don't fire fight
Yeah I feel you burning, everything's burning
Don't fly too high
Your wings might melt, you're much too good to be true
I'm just bad for you
I was lost and beat up
Turned out, burned up
You found me, through a heartache
Didn't know me, you were drawn in
I was lost and beat up
I was warm flesh, unseasoned
You found me, in your gaze
I found me, oh Jesus
I was too wild
And I need you now, lost and, found out, yeah
You gotta let me know if I could be your Joseph
Only tell you real shit, that's the tea, no sip
Don't trip, don't trip, that pussy slippery, no whip
We ain't trippin' on shit, we just sippin' on this
Just forget the whole shit, we could laugh about nothin'
I impregnate your mind, let's have a baby without fuckin', yo
I know it's corny bitches you wish you could unfollow
I know it's corny niggas you wish you could unswallow
I know it's corny bitches you wish you could unfollow
I know it's corny niggas you wish you could unswallow
I know it's corny bitches you wish you could unfollow
I know it's corny niggas you wish you could unswallow
You tried to play nice, everybody just took advantage
You left your fridge open, somebody just took a sandwich
I said baby what if you was clubbin'
Thuggin', hustlin' before you met your husband?
Then I said, "What if Mary was in the club
When she met Joseph around hella thugs?
Cover Nori in lambs' wool
We surrounded by the fuckin' wolves"
"What if Mary was in the club
'Fore she met Joseph with no love?
Cover Saint in lambs' wool
We surrounded by the fuckin' wolves"
The lyrics to Kanye West's "Wolves" featuring Sia are about finding someone who is lost and beat up and feeling the need to love and protect them. The song seems to be about Kanye's relationship with his wife Kim Kardashian, who he wants to shield from the pressures and dangers of fame.
The first verse describes finding someone who is lost and beat up and who Kanye needs to love and protect, and how the person he has found is much wilder than their mother would have ever expected. The second verse describes the intense connection between the two, with Kanye saying that he was lost and beat up but this person found and drew him in. The chorus repeats the line "Lost and found now" which seems to be about how the two have found each other and are now together.
The third verse contains some more explicit language, with Kanye rapping about impregnating someone's mind and having a baby without having sex. He also talks about people who are fake on social media and how he is always real. The final lines bring the religious theme of the song full circle, by imagining what it would have been like if Mary and Joseph had met in the club surrounded by wolves.
Line by Line Meaning
Lost out, beat up
In a state of being lost and defeated
Dancin', down there
Trying to put on a brave face despite being low down in life
I found you, somewhere out
Discovering someone who was also lost and defeated
'Round 'round there, right right there
In the same general area of loss and defeat
Turned out, how you thought
Becoming the person you expected to be
If mama knew now
Your mother would not approve of who you've become
You too wild, I need you now
Although you are reckless, I still want you
Cry, who needs sorry when there's Hennessey?
Drinking can numb emotional pain
Don't fool yourself
You shouldn't deceive yourself into thinking you're better than you are
Your eyes don't lie, you're much too good to be true
Your appearance is too perfect to be genuine
Your wings might melt, you're much too good to be true
Your potential is so high that you could end up falling just as hard
I was lost and beat up
I was lost and defeated
You found me, through a heartache
Discovering someone despite going through a painful experience
Didn't know me, you were drawn in
Being attracted to someone without knowing their full story
I was warm flesh, unseasoned
Feeling new and inexperienced, but still human
I need you now, lost and, found out, yeah
Desperately wanting someone to be there for me
You gotta let me know if I could be your Joseph
Asking for permission to be a supportive and trusted figure in someone's life
Only tell you real shit, that's the tea, no sip
Being honest and upfront with someone, without hiding the truth
Don't trip, don't trip, that pussy slippery, no whip
Don't get too caught up in the moment or get overconfident
We ain't trippin' on shit, we just sippin' on this
Not letting anything bother us as we enjoy ourselves
Just forget the whole shit, we could laugh about nothin'
Not taking life too seriously and being able to find humor in the mundane
I impregnate your mind, let's have a baby without fuckin', yo
Planting lasting and powerful ideas in your head
I know it's corny bitches you wish you could unfollow
Acknowledging that some people may find him uncool or uninteresting
You left your fridge open, somebody just took a sandwich
Being naive and careless, and someone taking advantage of that
We surrounded by the fuckin' wolves
Being constantly surrounded by danger and people who will exploit you

[Frank Ocean:]
The rings all ringed out
Burn out, cave in
Blackened to dark out
I'm mixed now, fleshed out
There's light with no heat
We cooled out, it's cool out
Life is precious
We found out, we found out
We found out
[Kanye West:]
Lost and beat up
Dancin' down there
I found you somewhere out
Right 'round there, right right there
Lost and beat up
Down there, dancin'
I found you somewhere out
Right down there, right 'round there
Lost and, found out
Turned out, how you thought
Daddy, found out
How you turned out, how you turned out
If mama knew now
How you turned out, you too wild
You too wild, you too wild
You too wild, I need you now
Got to love you
Found you, found you
Right now, right now
Right now, right now
If your mama knew how
You turned out, you too wild
You too wild, you too wild
You too wild, and I need you now
Lost and found out
[Vic Mensa:]

Don't fly too high
Your wings might melt, you're much too good to be true

I'm just bad, bad, bad for you
Don't fool yourself
Your eyes don't lie, you're much too good to be true
Don't fire fight

Don't fly too high
Your wings might melt, you're much too good to be true
I'm just bad for you
I'm just bad, bad, bad for you
