The lyric, found at the start of the song, talks about The Weeknd's wish to have a child. "Lost In The Fire" is also receiving attention for a lyric some listeners believe could be a diss at rapper Drake. This is one of the first times, however, his lyrics have been considered insensitive and problematic past being majorly explicit. The Weeknd has long been known to produce promiscuous and raunchy lyrics, and many times his work has included mentions of group sex. Ora alleged she meant the song as a bisexuality anthem. The lyrics of Ora's song claim "sometimes I just want to kiss girls." The song was slammed for being "tone deaf," by pop singer Hayley Kiyoko and "harmful" by artist Kehlani, according to Billboard. "Making lyrics out of vomit," wrote Twitter user user, drummer Louise Bartle, compared the song to Rita Ora's "Girls," which was met with heavy controversy for sexualizing those who identify as bisexual and lesbian. Both musician's posts received comments about the last line, most calling it offensive with a small handful agreeing with The Weeknd's lyrical point.
