Navigating the Highs and Lows: Travis Scott's 'CAN'T SAY'

Travis Scott's 'CAN'T SAY' featuring Don Toliver is a track that delves into the complexities of fame, substance use, and the hedonistic lifestyle often associated with the rap scene. The lyrics paint a picture of a life filled with indulgence in drugs ('Smokin' hella weed, I'm on that alcohol'), sexual encounters, and a constant need to evade law enforcement ('Gotta watch for 12 'round my town'). The repeated line 'No, you can't say if I'm mad or not' suggests a sense of detachment and the difficulty others may have in discerning his true emotions amidst this chaotic lifestyle.

The song also touches on the theme of authenticity and the struggle to maintain one's true self in the face of success and external pressures ('Drink too real, I can't be fake, don't know the feel'). Travis Scott's reference to 'the hill' could symbolize the climb to success and the isolation that can come with it. The 'vibe' being 'too wavy' and 'too hard to kill' indicates a strong sense of self and an unshakeable lifestyle that he's deeply immersed in.

Throughout the track, there's an underlying tone of caution and awareness of the dangers that come with the territory ('Gotta watch out where you go 'cause shit get real'). The mention of Chicago and the Navy Seals alludes to the need for toughness and resilience. The song's production, featuring a moody and atmospheric beat, complements the introspective and braggadocious lyrics, creating a soundscape that is both reflective and assertive.
