The meaning of the vídeo/song is: Famous people can influence others so much that they start acting like they are god telling people how to act, think, and be, sometimes destroying them, turning good people into trash people. And God will punish the ones that do it. THATS IT, so easy to understand.. These bad influencers are like the “Black sheep”. This isnt illuminati or satanic
Aka Rasta I know.These DUMMIES saying Travis is blasphemous, when the POINT IS that he REALIZED he was getting a God complex, and STOPPED THE SHIT, which TOO MANY CELEBRITIES don't have the FORESIGHT TO DO(KANYE).
Lol u guys a r e Travis's spoke person now?? "The greatest trick the devil pulled is to make the world believe he does not exist".....this nigha is Kylies Handler.....Tyga didnt want no smoke with that group....
Cudi didn’t have a verse. This song was really not a rap song. Travis literally sings. Since it’s a pop and R&B song, the hook is a chorus. Then you got Cudi and Philip Bailey on the chorus, Cudi humming and Philip saying “stop trying to be god” while Travis takes the two verses and James Blake singing the bridge.
Basically a perfect song. Some 5 years later I'm still in awe of it. Assembling Kid Cudi's hums, Stevie Wonder's harmonica, and the singing talents of Philip Bailey and James Blake on a song with production, melodies and hooks this strong is a match made in heaven. James' outro with Stevie's harmonica in particular gives me goosebumps every time.
KSi : I’m God Eminem : Rap God Drake : Gods Plan Kanye West : I Am God Kendrick Lamar : GOD. Ariana Grande : God is a Woman Travis Scott : Stop trying to be god.
Travis Scott cares for Kid Cudi man. Kid Cudi suffer and go through a shit in his life. Im a real hardcore fucking Kid Cudi fan. Always Mr. RAGER. Old Habit Die Hard. So just silence.
This song is so damned brilliant, and the outro is probably the most heartfelt moment in Travis's discography. He's speaking so clearly to his audience here, it's almost haunting.
i mean ye it kinda went under the radar, but when the album came out for the 1st 2weeks stop tryna be god was 1 of the most played songs from the album (on spotify atleast)
@@roschigouUtopia was really good, Travis really centered his concept as the album went on and it felt amazing. Astroworld remains better in my opinion, way more replayable and better tracks in general
This my favorite song on the album. Kid Cudi hum sound like it’s straight from the heavens. Kid Cudi could drop a full album of him just humming and I’ll still listen to it.
This is the music video of the year. Travis this is what Artistry is. Bible references and “idol worshiping” was displayed here. In this time right now it seems we idol human beings and don’t give the same attention to Our Lord & Savior. Pay attention! Travis i am proud of you.
wait, don't be silly... he's actually being blasphemous. the Bible says we are meant to be like God, because that's our image and likeness. Travis is lying and saying its not who we are. travis made himself a lamb in the hands of a shining kylie jenner. that's clearly blasphemy against Jesus "the lamb of God" and the virgin mary. he's also used the satanic imagery of himself as a goat and also an apocalypse.
Jack Voller cuase if god didn't exist you wouldn't exist who TF you think invented reality,this universe or the atoms for existence wtf you saying *we real* yeah We real but if god didn't exist nothing and I mean NOTHING would exist,we can't explain how he exists but he does or existence wouldn't exist nor you'd be reading this comment...wtf dude..
I kinda saw it like that too but then i think this video is trying to present something else bc we should actually try to be like god in the sense of loving others, and forgiving obviously we can't be god, basically to me its one of those videos that in a way its tricking people
+Noelia A. spot on! hes made himself an idol or god in this video, and is telling other rappers stop tryna be me. at the same time he is leading people away from trying to be like the real God, Jesus Christ.
This era was insane Can't deny Travis Scott been in his bag since day one, but that HIPVIEWS DAWT CAWM boost is on another level! Dude’s literally unstoppable now. 🔥💥
THE MEANING: Travis was a follower (sheep) in the beginning, then God blessed him but the power went to his head and he tried to become a god, so God destroyed him and he was reborn as a sheep again. This is meant to be a message to everyone in a position of power that if you misuse it, God will take it away just as quick as he gave it to you.
My interpretation: All the sheep are ordinary people, they follow aimlessly (following stereotypes of sheep being followers), then the Dragon is someone empowered, "trying to be God". It burns the area. Everyone runs but Travis stays showing that perhaps he was envious and also "wanted to be God" and be powerful/have influence. He is burned which can symbolise him becoming a new person. He now has influence, has the people in suits following him, then baptised people like Jesus would do again re-alliterating that he's attempting to be God with his new found influence. Then he's on the Dragon roaming, and he only burns the area (could be a symbolism of his hubris) then the cycle continues where at first someone else was exerting that powerful influence that intrigued Travis. Then God punishes him when he shoots him with a laser. Perhaps Travis is trying to show he was punished for losing his faith. Then at the end the little lamb held by Kylie Jenner could be Stormi?? (I don't know about that one, it seems as if they replicating birth of Christ but in a twisted way but I'm not sure) But ultimately i think the message is that celebrities have a powerful influence, and how they get this power isn't in "gods will" or comes with a sacrifice that can't be undone. And that no matter how tempted you are like h93 Travis and others that "sold their soul" became, you must've "try to be God".
HackmanXD thats what lucifer did. He was envious of god so he tried to be him. Resultibg in his eternal punishment. We need to know our universal place. As equal beings in a game of chess that we cannot be part of. We are the peices. But its a very real game. God loves and cherishes his peices giving them purpose. While the devil takes and disposes with no care of the peice being a person to him its just another replacable cheap tool
I feel like him being destroyed by god is essentially his damnation to hell when the time comes. I think when he’s burned by the fire it’s his way of conveying he knows his role is done and that in the end he’ll pay for all the things he’s done. The baphomet breathing fire upon everything could represent the world that’s left after Yeshua has come back for his people. Now I could be wrong but Travis dying could essentially be either the conveying of Michael and Satan going at it one last time before Satan is ultimately defeated or when the time comes like I said Travis and a host of other celebrities that have given up their souls to Satan will be cast into the fire for all of eternity.
For anyone saying that they think this video is demonic keep in mind that the Bible tells us not to try and be God but to be like God so I think this video when interpreted correctly can show us that we need to be more like Christ and stop trying to be worshiped like a god and stop trying to be an actual God and take on the attributes of Jesus Christ and what he actually stood for because it’s all an allegory
Nothing and no one is similar to God. Jesus is not God. The holy spirit is not God. Doesn't matter how much you want them to be. Doesn't change the truth and the reality. God doesn't have any children nor parents.
@@GeraltOfRivia-po4cq God doesn’t have children. He is 1 God in three persons. The three are not children but God himself. Jesus is God, the Holy Spirt is God and the Father is God
You're right, things are clear, only the paranoid believe the opposite, their minds are inhabited, those who constantly speak of the devil are themselves inhabited by the bad, hence their paranoia.
@GeraltOfRivia-po4cq The Holy Spirit is God bro! For it is written: "Whosoever blasphemes the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, neither in this age or the age to come"
I like how the flock of sheep are used as a metaphor. Sheep are seen as the followers of Christ in the Bible, while goats are depicted as Satan or his followers. Travis is also sort of playing the roll as a shepherd, where of course in the Bible Angel Gabriel came down to tell the shepherds that Jesus was born. All on a track called stop trying to be god. Masterpiece.
This video, this song, and the whole Astroworld album captures the humbling effects of what partying, drugs, and influence does to you over time. You step back and look for yourself, your true self, the self thats separate from your partying and destruction and embraces change. A masterpiece.
This song is so underrated, Travis is one of the best fucken artist out there. He will be remembered for making his own sound, production. He is goated.
There was one more thing I picked up. Stevie Wonder is playing harmonica on this song. Stevie Wonder's song "Higher Ground" speaks on his belief in Reincarnation. At the end of the video Travis is reincarnated as a baby goat, so it makes me think Stevie and Travis had a convo.
@BuyingOGNames do you think that is a normal video?. Hes been used for these psychopath call illuminati freemason. A normal person with a normal life dont make a video like that. They are always using the bible with Jesus and God. you represent the obese, blind and ignorant. this guy laughs at you on your face.
kid cudi humming is good for the soul Travis Scott goes in soo hard on this right here! Only reason he is getting more hits is cuz he is just watching that short on *my channel* explaining how all these rappers out here be blowing up so big
@@calebbaca9487 it's not satanic lol. The whole hook is literally "Stop Trying To Be God". The point of the song was to tell people to stop having a God complex just because they have influence. There's nothing satanic about it
@@calebbaca9487 Also, the part where he's flying around on that dragon-thing is meant to just portray any type of celebrity, essentially saying people with influence get a God complex and the results are disastrous. He even featured on a Christian Kanye song in 2020.
I strongly disagree with many of the comments. My understanding is that he has unwillingly earned a God Complex. He is saying to himself and others who have this complex to not be almighty. The first scene portrays him as a Sheppard leading the herd as a comparison to himself and his listeners. He may have been compared to as a God by others or his followers . A simple observation with nothing to over complicate. Scene two shows the night time with the baphomet flying past the view of God in the clouds. The baphomet being foreshadowed by the drawings on the walls of the building. People are dancing to music in a damaged/run down location that could imply their carelessness of their surroundings and selves. Scene three shows the baphomet coming to burn the people but only Travis (assumed to lead the herd/have a god complex) is the one to be burned. The aftermath shows only Travis to be burned and dead from the flames of the beast while Kylie (shown to be a form of a goddess, possibly by her followers or by others the same as Travis) consoles the burned and dead Travis. Scene four shows Travis portrayed as God Almighty in the sky with provocative women (it is his portrayal of God which I can see how this may offend some) saying to "Stop trying to be God". As it carries over to scene five, he has similarities to Moses (based on the clothing of Travis).As he raises his hands, so do his followers, just as one with power could command. The clouds stay open for God to watch but notice that Travis remains below God himself, with God still in the sky. We move onto scene six with Travis baptizing his followers and them imitating his way of life afterwards with God still watching it unfold from above. Scene seven takes us to Travis riding the Baphomet and causing destruction to the Earth. God displeased, he kills Travis to emphasize that there may not be anyone higher than God himself and those that try will face full wrath. As Travis is burning, he has descended into Hell, burning for being a traitor to God. We move over to scene eight as we see people crowded to a shrine for God on a snowy and dark night. Then we are transitioned over to Kylie (again presumed a Goddess) caressing a lamb (Lamb of God possibly) as the last words uttered are "Stop trying to be God, That's not who you are" reinstating to be nothing more or less than human. My opinion is that this is Travis Scott's interpretation of what a God Complex can do to a human being and the consequences for being more than just human that can occur. Not only can this be directed towards himself but to others that find themselves or may find themselves to be in this certain position and state of life. A very well put together and executed idea just as an artist would do in my opinion.
Exactly . Some people are not even watching the full video and just complaining to complain. Like the title says “stop trying to be god” he’s saying to others in his position or higher ,don’t act high and mighty . I almost feel sorry for these narrow minded people . If it’s not what they want to hear or understand they do not care . It’s hard to tell if most of these people are trolls or just that blinded to other peoples view points especially when it’s not intended to harm.
KW7 I can't believe others haven't put the puzzle pieces together. I completely understand what you are saying and I like the video's message that people with influence need to stop acting like they're gods but it also spotlights that the flock need to do better and stop acting like sheep
Some humans choose to be sheep. They desire freedom but rely on others to provide their comforts, striving for riches but investing little effort to attain it.
Shani Arshad how will you obtain something without someone else’s help or guidance? Ultimately, nobody is truly successful without relying on someone at one point in there life, and it can come down to someone just simply birthing you. Now if a person is truly not independent for there entire life than that’s just simply them not having any ambition, and not wanting any freedom in the first place. As humans we have to rely on each other a lot of times to reach the next level in life or obtain something, it’s just in our nature. if you think you have done and can do everything for yourself you must see yourself as a god, which simply is not the case.
Exactly I think he’s commenting on how other artists take those sheep and try to imitate being Godlike I don’t think this was satanic at all he’s actually telling people stop trying to be God
where did your hands and feet come from? where did the sun come from? where did the air you breathe come from? who put there the laws of nature that if you plant a seed and water there is an increase? who gave you your own Will which you so clearly love? Indeed some people might be lazy, but don't be a fool. Consider that all you are (and have) is given. Call it God, Nature, Universe, Whatever, you didn't do anything about it, you just woke one day and saw this place and that it was good.
so can we talk about how travis got j beatz, mike dean, murda beatz, tame impala, tay keith, and tm88 on production and got vocals from cudi, frank ocean, drake, the weeknd, james blake and philip bailey here, 21 savage, swae lee, gunna, nav, quavo and takeoff, juice wrld, sheck wes and don toliver all on one album and it still didn't win the grammys nominations edit: forgot to mention that it also got high ratings from all around the board of the rap critic organizations
They rather let BTS get a nomination than Travis. Travis is way beyond BTS in terms of music quality. I'm not a hardcore rap fan but Travis and all other artists featured in Astro is Fire 👌
Features doesn’t matter unless they are good, what’s the point of bringing a huge artist to only do a little to nothing on the track? That’s not the thing with astro though, it was the best album nominated that night.
Shepard, this video depicts Travis Scott as God even though he is trying to tell you to stop trying to be him. Then he is struck down by fire for his attempt to be God. Very thought out video right here. 🤧🤤🌼
Bartty Sky / loSer - loVer Which is what makes you think. Is this Travis trying to also depict his belief that there is no 1 God, but that he is God as well. This song as a whole might be a huge manipulation of the masses?!? 🌼
it doesn't make me think tbh. It's not on that type of level in my eyes. Great visuals and depiction but im not searching for answers. I feel like the culture however are trying to explain that they are gods tho. This video as well in God's Plan when Drake said he'll go down as G.O.D. Like come on you can say its just lyrics but the way his status is he might as well be some type of God.
This era was insane Travis Scott goes in soo hard on this right here! Only reason he is getting more hits is cuz he is just watching that short on my channel explaining how all these rappers out here be blowing up so big

My interpretation: All the sheep are ordinary people, they follow aimlessly (following stereotypes of sheep being followers), then the Dragon is someone empowered, "trying to be God". It burns the area. Everyone runs but Travis stays showing that perhaps he was envious and also "wanted to be God" and be powerful/have influence.
He is burned which can symbolise him becoming a new person. He now has influence, has the people in suits following him, then baptised people like Jesus would do again re-alliterating that he's attempting to be God with his new found influence.
Then he's on the Dragon roaming, and he only burns the area (could be a symbolism of his hubris) then the cycle continues where at first someone else was exerting that powerful influence that intrigued Travis.
Then God punishes him when he shoots him with a laser. Perhaps Travis is trying to show he was punished for losing his faith.
Then at the end the little lamb held by Kylie Jenner could be Stormi?? (I don't know about that one, it seems as if they replicating birth of Christ but in a twisted way but I'm not sure)
But ultimately i think the message is that celebrities have a powerful influence, and how they get this power isn't in "gods will" or comes with a sacrifice that can't be undone. And that no matter how tempted you are like h93 Travis and others that "sold their soul" became, you must've "try to be God".

As equal beings in a game of chess that we cannot be part of. We are the peices. But its a very real game. God loves and cherishes his peices giving them purpose. While the devil takes and disposes with no care of the peice being a person to him its just another replacable cheap tool
I feel like him being destroyed by god is essentially his damnation to hell when the time comes. I think when he’s burned by the fire it’s his way of conveying he knows his role is done and that in the end he’ll pay for all the things he’s done. The baphomet breathing fire upon everything could represent the world that’s left after Yeshua has come back for his people. Now I could be wrong but Travis dying could essentially be either the conveying of Michael and Satan going at it one last time before Satan is ultimately defeated or when the time comes like I said Travis and a host of other celebrities that have given up their souls to Satan will be cast into the fire for all of eternity.

For anyone saying that they think this video is demonic keep in mind that the Bible tells us not to try and be God but to be like God so I think this video when interpreted correctly can show us that we need to be more like Christ and stop trying to be worshiped like a god and stop trying to be an actual God and take on the attributes of Jesus Christ and what he actually stood for because it’s all an allegory
Is that why the blasphemy should be tolerated
Nothing and no one is similar to God. Jesus is not God. The holy spirit is not God. Doesn't matter how much you want them to be. Doesn't change the truth and the reality. God doesn't have any children nor parents.
@@GeraltOfRivia-po4cq God doesn’t have children. He is 1 God in three persons. The three are not children but God himself. Jesus is God, the Holy Spirt is God and the Father is God
You're right, things are clear, only the paranoid believe the opposite, their minds are inhabited, those who constantly speak of the devil are themselves inhabited by the bad, hence their paranoia.
@GeraltOfRivia-po4cq The Holy Spirit is God bro! For it is written: "Whosoever blasphemes the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, neither in this age or the age to come"
This is one of the best songs on astroworld and no one talks about it
It IS his most powerful song....

I like how the flock of sheep are used as a metaphor. Sheep are seen as the followers of Christ in the Bible, while goats are depicted as Satan or his followers. Travis is also sort of playing the roll as a shepherd, where of course in the Bible Angel Gabriel came down to tell the shepherds that Jesus was born. All on a track called stop trying to be god. Masterpiece.
Where was the goat?

Just found out that was Cudi! The Greatest! Travis is right behind him and Kanye.
Knew it was Cudi from the second the humming started
This video, this song, and the whole Astroworld album captures the humbling effects of what partying, drugs, and influence does to you over time. You step back and look for yourself, your true self, the self thats separate from your partying and destruction and embraces change. A masterpiece.

How does becoming a sacrificial lamb at the end equate to embracing change 🤔

Stevie Wonder was the most underrated part of this entire song, he made that instrumental tbh who agrees??
Me bro he too good
the harmonica
Right on
nah the real genius is james blake on the keys and vocals at the end
@@alexbayley7749 u right this is gonna be a timeless classic
There was one more thing I picked up. Stevie Wonder is playing harmonica on this song.
Stevie Wonder's song "Higher Ground" speaks on his belief in Reincarnation.
At the end of the video Travis is reincarnated as a baby goat, so it makes me think Stevie and Travis had a convo.
I doubt it. Something tells me music videos don’t really appeal to Stevie Wonder
Kaizer-Man *rimshot*
DaBoyAG no Travis was satanically reborn like a christan rebirth but satanic
MikeyLuvesGames Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon.
It says in the description “Stevie Wonder on the harmonica”
I have a feeling Travis Scott had a awakening, a moment of realization that gave him inspiration to make this to inspire us to stop fooling ourselves
Underrated post boy.
@BuyingOGNames do you think that is a normal video?. Hes been used for these psychopath call illuminati freemason. A normal person with a normal life dont make a video like that.

HE NAILED IT PROPER
Man i swear to God, that harmonica gave me goosebumps so hard. I can even see my skin turned up.

that whole song is a masterpiece
Origami travis 's grandfather was a musical composer this shit is in his blood he's far ahead his time.A GOAT.
Origami ikr
This song is actually very satanic
@@calebbaca9487 it's not satanic lol. The whole hook is literally "Stop Trying To Be God". The point of the song was to tell people to stop having a God complex just because they have influence. There's nothing satanic about it
@@calebbaca9487 Also, the part where he's flying around on that dragon-thing is meant to just portray any type of celebrity, essentially saying people with influence get a God complex and the results are disastrous. He even featured on a Christian Kanye song in 2020.
Not usually into this kind of music, but this is unreal. That fucking harmonica piece to end the song... Actual perfection
Thanks to Stevie Wonder :)
Thanks for that real Stevie Wonder!
Should give Drake's "Doing it Wrong" a listen. Got a similar harmonica solo at the end, and I believe Stevie Wonder did it as well.
Agreed

Haveng heard this song in years in man I got chills this song so beautiful
I strongly disagree with many of the comments. My understanding is that he has unwillingly earned a God Complex. He is saying to himself and others who have this complex to not be almighty.
The first scene portrays him as a Sheppard leading the herd as a comparison to himself and his listeners. He may have been compared to as a God by others or his followers . A simple observation with nothing to over complicate.
Scene two shows the night time with the baphomet flying past the view of God in the clouds. The baphomet being foreshadowed by the drawings on the walls of the building. People are dancing to music in a damaged/run down location that could imply their carelessness of their surroundings and selves.
Scene three shows the baphomet coming to burn the people but only Travis (assumed to lead the herd/have a god complex) is the one to be burned. The aftermath shows only Travis to be burned and dead from the flames of the beast while Kylie (shown to be a form of a goddess, possibly by her followers or by others the same as Travis) consoles the burned and dead Travis.
Scene four shows Travis portrayed as God Almighty in the sky with provocative women (it is his portrayal of God which I can see how this may offend some) saying to "Stop trying to be God".
As it carries over to scene five, he has similarities to Moses (based on the clothing of Travis).As he raises his hands, so do his followers, just as one with power could command. The clouds stay open for God to watch but notice that Travis remains below God himself, with God still in the sky.
We move onto scene six with Travis baptizing his followers and them imitating his way of life afterwards with God still watching it unfold from above.
Scene seven takes us to Travis riding the Baphomet and causing destruction to the Earth. God displeased, he kills Travis to emphasize that there may not be anyone higher than God himself and those that try will face full wrath. As Travis is burning, he has descended into Hell, burning for being a traitor to God.
We move over to scene eight as we see people crowded to a shrine for God on a snowy and dark night. Then we are transitioned over to Kylie (again presumed a Goddess) caressing a lamb (Lamb of God possibly) as the last words uttered are "Stop trying to be God, That's not who you are" reinstating to be nothing more or less than human.
My opinion is that this is Travis Scott's interpretation of what a God Complex can do to a human being and the consequences for being more than just human that can occur. Not only can this be directed towards himself but to others that find themselves or may find themselves to be in this certain position and state of life. A very well put together and executed idea just as an artist would do in my opinion.
KW7 YOUR COMMENT IS THE ONLY GOOD COMMENT AND IT HAD ONE LIKE. The truth is never popular.
Exactly . Some people are not even watching the full video and just complaining to complain. Like the title says “stop trying to be god” he’s saying to others in his position or higher ,don’t act high and mighty . I almost feel sorry for these narrow minded people . If it’s not what they want to hear or understand they do not care . It’s hard to tell if most of these people are trolls or just that blinded to other peoples view points especially when it’s not intended to harm.
Wow, give my man some likes for that whole english essay he just wrote. God damn!
KW7 Thank you. Finally someone gets it
KW7 I can't believe others haven't put the puzzle pieces together. I completely understand what you are saying and I like the video's message that people with influence need to stop acting like they're gods but it also spotlights that the flock need to do better and stop acting like sheep

Some humans choose to be sheep. They desire freedom but rely on others to provide their comforts, striving for riches but investing little effort to attain it.
Shani Arshad how will you obtain something without someone else’s help or guidance? Ultimately, nobody is truly successful without relying on someone at one point in there life, and it can come down to someone just simply birthing you. Now if a person is truly not independent for there entire life than that’s just simply them not having any ambition, and not wanting any freedom in the first place. As humans we have to rely on each other a lot of times to reach the next level in life or obtain something, it’s just in our nature. if you think you have done and can do everything for yourself you must see yourself as a god, which simply is not the case.
Exactly I think he’s commenting on how other artists take those sheep and try to imitate being Godlike I don’t think this was satanic at all he’s actually telling people stop trying to be God
where did your hands and feet come from? where did the sun come from? where did the air you breathe come from? who put there the laws of nature that if you plant a seed and water there is an increase? who gave you your own Will which you so clearly love? Indeed some people might be lazy, but don't be a fool. Consider that all you are (and have) is given. Call it God, Nature, Universe, Whatever, you didn't do anything about it, you just woke one day and saw this place and that it was good.

so can we talk about how travis got j beatz, mike dean, murda beatz, tame impala, tay keith, and tm88 on production and got vocals from cudi, frank ocean, drake, the weeknd, james blake and philip bailey here, 21 savage, swae lee, gunna, nav, quavo and takeoff, juice wrld, sheck wes and don toliver all on one album and it still didn't win the grammys nominations
edit: forgot to mention that it also got high ratings from all around the board of the rap critic organizations
They rather let BTS get a nomination than Travis. Travis is way beyond BTS in terms of music quality. I'm not a hardcore rap fan but Travis and all other artists featured in Astro is Fire 👌
Features doesn’t matter unless they are good, what’s the point of bringing a huge artist to only do a little to nothing on the track? That’s not the thing with astro though, it was the best album nominated that night.

it doesn't make me think tbh. It's not on that type of level in my eyes. Great visuals and depiction but im not searching for answers. I feel like the culture however are trying to explain that they are gods tho. This video as well in God's Plan when Drake said he'll go down as G.O.D. Like come on you can say its just lyrics but the way his status is he might as well be some type of God.
