Flocky Flocky (feat. Travis Scott)

Don Toliver's 'Flocky Flocky,' featuring Travis Scott, is a vivid portrayal of the fast-paced, hedonistic lifestyle often associated with fame and success. The song opens with the imagery of 'tastin' cotton candy' and 'hitting the gas,' which sets the tone for a night filled with indulgence and speed. The repeated mention of 'two cups' suggests a double cup, a common reference in hip-hop culture to a styrofoam cup used for drinking lean, a mixture of codeine and soda. This imagery paints a picture of a life lived in the fast lane, where the protagonist is moving so quickly that he doesn't even see the dashboard of his car.

The lyrics also delve into the transient nature of relationships in this lifestyle. The line 'I'll be back in the morning' is repeated, emphasizing the fleeting and temporary connections that come with this way of living. The term 'flocky flocky' seems to refer to someone who is erratic or unpredictable, further highlighting the instability in these relationships. Despite the chaos, the protagonist remains grounded, counting his blessings and acknowledging his rapid ascent to success.

Travis Scott's verse adds another layer to the narrative, introducing elements of danger and recklessness. References to 'Glocks and handles' and 'lawyers and shooters' suggest a life that is not only fast but also fraught with peril. The mention of taking someone 'far away, to Lithuania' and 'stuffing her face in cake' juxtaposes moments of escape and indulgence with the underlying tension of their reality. The song captures the essence of living on the edge, where every moment is intense and every relationship is fleeting, yet there's an underlying sense of gratitude and awareness of the blessings that come with this lifestyle.
