Trap (feat. Lil Baby)

SAINt JHN's song "Trap (feat. Lil Baby)" delves into the gritty and relentless world of the trap lifestyle. The term 'trap' refers to a place where drugs are sold, but it also symbolizes the struggles and hustles of those who grow up in such environments. The song opens with SAINt JHN reflecting on how the only love he has ever known is the trap, emphasizing the harsh reality of his upbringing and the lack of alternatives. This sentiment is echoed throughout the song, highlighting the inescapable nature of this lifestyle for many individuals.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the highs and lows of the trap life. SAINt JHN describes a woman who is deeply entrenched in this world, indulging in various substances and living a life of excess. Despite the chaos, there is a sense of loyalty and unbreakable bonds formed in these circumstances.

Despite achieving success, there are lingering thoughts and memories of the past, as indicated by the line "Still be havin' thoughts about the guy." The song ultimately portrays the trap as both a source of survival and a relentless force that shapes the lives of those within it, leaving a lasting impact on their identities and choices.
