Discover the story of the song > way back – Travis Scott

The song is about the protagonist's frustration with fake friends who have switched up on him, despite their long-standing friendship. He finds it hard to rest and sleeps with a TEC gun nearby, as he stashes pills in his desk and wears every chain he has. The lyrics also mention how he has made it big, but still faces shade and criticism. The song ends with the protagonist reminiscing about the past and asking his friends to go way back for him.
