Shoppin' in my closet not the mall
Openin' my mouth, a disco ball
I extend the marble on the wall
I been into designin' it all, all, all
Water down her eyes, Niagara Falls
Got too many numbers, who to call?
Made too many ways for you to cross
Now we lookin' down and then we ball, ball, ball
Ratchet bitches wanted Frenchy's, not Philippe (yeah)
That's the type to put me in my mood (yeah)
She know that I'm mobbin', she come cool for me (ah, yeah)

Villains don't perceive themselves as wrong
And all heroes do not wear capes
Villains are made, not born
Most times, the villain and the hero's beginnings
Unlike their endings, take nearly identical shape and form (mm)
The song Niagara Falls by Travis Scott and 21 Savage is a trap ballad about the hardships of fame and the struggles of maintaining relationships in the midst of celebrity. The verses speak to the duo's experiences of being involved in illegal activities, referencing their past run-ins with the law. The lyric "We done did a lot around the law" is an acknowledgement of their involvement in criminal activities, and how it has affected their lives. The chorus talks about needing an "extra for the two," possibly referring to the people that they need by their side to navigate the fame and fortune.
The second verse talks about material wealth and how it cannot replace human connection. It alludes to the type of women they attract, who want to be friends with them, but are ultimately not genuine. They want someone who will stand by them through thick and thin, hence 'if you gotta walk, would you still ride for me?' This communicates the challenges that come with being in a relationship as a celebrity, where it's hard to tell who is genuine and who is not. The chorus is then repeated, emphasizing the need for an 'extra' person, someone who can understand and support them amidst the chaos.
The last verse features both rappers' displays of their wealth by referencing the fashion brands they wear and the cars they drive. The lyric 'I done fell in love with a hood girl / She be puttin' syrup in her margaritas' is an interesting contrast to the persona that is presented at the beginning of the song. It is as if they are searching for something real and genuine, finding relief in newfound love after experiencing the difficulties of being famous.
