Composition and lyrics

On "Say My Grace", Offset and Travis Scott both rap about their luxurious items, with Offset rapping on the chorus: "Made room on my plate, I just said my grace and then I ate / Got a particular taste / I just stuffed my pockets and my face".[3] In the first verse, Offset communicates with God as he reminisces the deaths of Takeoff and his grandmother, but he continues to push through: "Why I didn't get a answer? / Why I lose my brother to bullets? / Why I lose my grandma to cancer? / Why mе, God? I need answers".[4] Scott takes the second verse, where he talks about his expensive lifestyle ("I filled up the crib with cars, the halls, with all and all, and I'm still having space / Got a particular taste, picky eater, I guess, but I'm still stuffing my face") and also references Takeoff ("I'm in a meditate state / Ever since we lost bro, ain't really much more I can take").[5]
