Safety Net Lyrics
Yeah
You know you're really something, yeah
How we get here so damn fast?
Only you can tell me that
Baby, 'cause you know I'm coming back
You're making me forget my past
Never thought I’d feel like that again
I came to peace with my path
Now you got me off track
I've never been this scared before
Feelings I just can't ignore
Don't know if I should fight or fly
But I don't mind
Mmm
Tripping, falling, with no safety net
Boy, it must be something that you said
Is it real this time or is it in my head?
Got me tripping, falling, with no safety net
Let your guard down, girl
You know we came too far now girl (Oh)
It's timе for you to play your part now
You know we hit that jewelry storе and we gon' ball out
Ups and downs, we had some fallouts (Ooh, yeah)
Put some ice on you, girl, let it thaw out (Ooh)
Girl, you're mine, it's safe to say
At the end of the day
I've never been this scared before
Feelings I just can't ignore
Don't know if I should fight or fly
But I don't mind (I don't mind, I don't mind)
Mmm (Sheesh, woo)
Tripping, falling, with no safety net
Boy, it must be something that you said (You said, ayy)
Is it real this time or is it in my head? (In my head, oh, in my head, head, yeah)
Got me tripping, falling, with no safety net
(Yeah)
Every time you feel some way, feel a way
Never let me run away, run away, my baby
Every time you feel some way, feel a way
Never let me run away, run away
Girl, you got me tripping, falling, with no safety net
(With no safety net, oh-ah, baby)
Boy, it must be something that you said
Is it real this time or is it in my head?
(Is it in my head? Is it all in my head? Oh, baby)
Got me tripping, falling, with no safety net (With no safety net)
Oh hey
Ah yeah
This standout song off her latest studio album titled 'Positions' was produced by Keys Open Doors, The Rascals & TBHits. It was released on October 30, 2020.
What the artist means Ariana is collaborating with one of the biggest hitmakers on the planet on this lovely record. She's crooning about a lover that she once had, that's making her forget her past, she's crooning with a vigor that looks like she's hiding her feelings behind a safety net. Ty Dolla Sign struts in and croons about hoping that his girl starts playing her part instead of merely sitting around and waiting for him to do all the work in the relationship. Both artists then break off into a duet about tripping and falling into a safety set (or without one). The track closes out with Ariana singing over the haunting instrumental as she decides not to run away from the feelings she clearly still has for her ex-lover.
What the song means to me The song is super refreshing as it sees two seemingly impenetrable artists let their guard down and create some well-crafted magic about a safety net. There's nobody that sings about heartbreak like Ariana (well, maybe Taylor Swift) and there's no one that gets hearts soaring like Ty Dolla Sign. That's why this song is the perfect blend between heartbroken and horny, both artists brought their A-game and it led to one of the best tracks of both their careers. It's a superb duet by an all-star duo, makes me wonder why it took so long to come to fruition. I will give this song a rating of 10/10.
