How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Is this song about drugs or drug addiction?
Genius Answer

While this song is ostensibly about young love, there is the possibility that it is personifying drugs and a relationship with drug addiction. If so, it would be far from the first time an artist has used love and relationships as a euphemism to drugs. For example, The Weeknd does this in his song Can’t Feel My Face. In fact, this theme has become so popular that Chance the Rapper has actually inverted it in his song Same Drugs. Chance uses drugs to refer to common interests and activities between him and a girl from his youth.
