Initiation Lyrics
Got you drinking out them white cups, sodas
All this shit sounds foreign to you, thick smoke, choking
Baby get familiar with the order
Just crack it
Then pour it
Then sip slow
Then tip low
My eyes red but my brim low, that XO,
She climbing straight to the top,
Forgetting why she there in the first place
No more crying, heart rate slow, put that rum down you don't wanna die tonight
I promise, when you're finished we'll head to where I'm living
The party won't finish it's a fucking celebration
For my niggas out tonight,
And they high off Shakespeare lines
There's enough to pass around you don't gotta wait in line
And the clocks don't work you don't gotta check the time
And the blinds don't work you don't gotta check the sky
We be going all night til light
I got a test for you
You say you want my heart
Well baby you can have it all
There's just something that I need from you
Is to meet my boys
You've been going hard baby,
Now you rolling with some big boys baby
Got a lot you wanna show off baby,
Close that door before you take your fucking clothes off baby
Don't mind, all my writings on the wall
I thought I passed my peak and I'm experiencing fall
And all I wanna do is leave cause I've been zoning for a week
And I ain't left this little room trying to concentrate to breathe
Cuz this piff so potent, kill a seratonin
In that two floor loft in the middle we be choking
On that all black voodoo
Got me gum chewing
Call one of your best friends
Baby if you mixing up
Cup of that XO,
Baby I been leaning
Back from the come down
Girl I been fiending for another round,
Don't you blame it on me
When you're grinding up them teeth
And it's fucking hard to sleep
I got a test for you
You said you want my heart
Well baby you can have it all
There's just something I need from you
Is to meet my boys
I got a lot of boys
And we can make you right
And if you get too high
Baby come over here and ride it out, ride it out
Work that back til I turn you out
Roll that weed
Blow the fire out
Taste that lean when you kiss my mouth
Get so wet when I eat you out
Girlfriend screaming that I'm creeping out
Been knocked down but I keep em out
Ex-man hollering, keep him out
Hard to let go I could teach you how
Take a puff of this motherfucking reefer now
Take a shot of this cognac, ease you out
Just one night
Trying to fucking leave you out
Baby, baby
I got a test for you
You said you want my heart
Well baby you can have it
There's just something I need from you
Is to meet my boys
I got a lot of boys
And we can make you right
And if you get too high
Baby come over here and ride it out
Come over here and ride it out
That north north,
That up top,
That OVO and that XO (x8)
All this shit sounds foreign to you, thick smoke, choking
Baby get familiar with the order
Just crack it
Then pour it
Then sip slow
Then tip low
My eyes red but my brim low, that XO,
She climbing straight to the top,
Forgetting why she there in the first place

it's obviously about getting a girl high and making her have group sex. i mean it called 'initiation' ffs.
@iluvyougoldenblue This has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH GROUP SEX, ORGIES, GANGBANGS, OR RUNNING A TRAIN. Where does it say any of that? (In his song "Enemy," it's clear he doesn't mind sharing a woman or even multiple women, but still no relevance to this song.) Anyway, back to the Initiation lyrics. Pretty much, I could go on forever, but this song is strictly him expressing his desire to do multiple ("a lot") of substances with a female & then do sexually related activities while crossfaded (under the influence of multiple substances). Why would he eat a girl after a gang...

Why would he eat a girl after a gang bang type initiation? His "boys" aka drugs&alcohol...very obvious. He refers to his guy friends as his "niggas," not his "boys." I'm sorry, but the only people intended to have sex is him (Abel) & whoever he is speaking to (or whoever is being initiated). Initiation is to get as geeked out, faded, stoned, drunk, high, baked, gacked, twacked, slammed, fucked up etc. as possible & then hammer time, I'd assume.
This song is about Abel seducing this innocent girl into his dark and twisted world. He starts off by painting this scene of walking into this party where everyone is doing drugs. This is the girl's first time in this environment but Abel is there to guide her by giving her the step by step instructions on how to experience his high when she is finally where he wants her he brings up his proposition of sleeping with his crew. She does it. Then comes the second verse where she is now part of the crew. She is spending more time with Abel and every time they get together they are either sexing or trying to keep their high going. Eventually he get tired of her and wants to get rid of her. Before he does that though he makes sure he teaches her how to use the drugs and continue to party. I actually like the song. It has a dark story that you don't hear to often these days. The distorted voices only makes the song more dramatic and that much better. Though I do not condone people actually do these things I think The Weeknd is telling this from experience, but that makes it more authentic.
