HOUSTONFORNICATION
Travi$ Scott Lyrics

I might need me some ventilation
Feeling suffocated and in need of a break from his daily life.

A little vacation, Houstonfornication
Desiring a trip to Houston, where he can indulge in his favorite vices and indulge in pleasure-seeking activities.

Mind redefine new renovations
Desiring to change and upgrade his thought patterns and way of life.

Space coupe back out of the space station
Driving his car like a spaceship, careening around through the city.

Float around town do that on the daily
Wandering around town aimlessly, without any specific destination or goal.

Ridin' through the clouds we goin' through the vapors (phew, phew)

Pop a seal like it's Chris, make it look Breezy (it's lit)

Wedding bands on my fist, it is freezing (straight up)
Wearing expensive jewelry and showing off his wealth.

Throw the bands get a kiss, then she leave me
Bribing women with money and then watching them leave him, reflecting on his superficial relationships.

I just want the peace, it's still Lambo' over Mercedes (yeah)

Seein' flashes, oh, no-no, that's my neck (yeah, it's lit)

Cut my phone off so they can never reach me

Life is just a maze, goin' through my phases (yeah)
Feeling lost and uncertain, going through different stages of his life.

If it rise on the East, land on the West
