Living a life I be Everywhere
Hey
Pay up
Pay up
I got cash
Money in my pocket and i got some stashed left for you
Ohhhhh
Living my life cause I'm about that
Ain't no price I never doubt that
You can't buy me I'm an outcast
I'm an outcast
I rather be an outcast
Living my life cause I'm about that
Ain't no price I never doubt that
You can't buy me I'm an outcast
I'm an outcast
I'm an outcast living like an outcast
I'm an outcast living like an outcast
If you gave in you must know better
Than to keep me out
I know you've been waiting for moments like (moments like this)
Then I gave in
No you are not around anymore
Let the bottle spin
I don't care (I don't care)
I'll just go where the wind takes me, yeah
Living a life I be Everywhere
Hey
Pay up
Pay up
I got cash
Money in my pocket and i got some stashed left for you
Ohhhhh

Living my life cause I'm about that
Ain't no price I never doubt that
You can't buy me I'm an outcast
I'm an outcast

Living my life cause I'm about that
Ain't no price I never doubt that
You can't buy me I'm an outcast
I'm an outcast
Oh baby I see it in your eyes
They keep dazing in my mind keep on dancing in the light for me

So wavy I cant lie
You got me hypnotize in the night come and ride with me

Living my life cause I'm about that
Ain't no price I never doubt that
You can't buy me I'm an outcast

The lyrics to FooL's "Outcast" revolve around the idea of living life on one's own terms and refusing to conform to society's expectations. The opening lines, "I'll just go where the wind takes me, yeah/Living a life I be Everywhere," suggest a desire for freedom and a willingness to go wherever life takes the singer. The repetition of "Pay up" and "I got cash" could be interpreted as a belief in the power of financial independence or a rejection of those who only value others for their money. The chorus emphasizes the singer's rejection of societal norms and the idea that their worth cannot be measured by material possessions: "I rather be an outcast/Living my life cause I'm about that/Ain't no price I never doubt that/You can't buy me I'm an outcast."
The second verse seems to address a past relationship, with lines like "If you gave in you must know better/Than to keep me out" and "No you are not around anymore/Let the bottle spin." The bridge, with its focus on hypnotic attraction and nighttime escapades, provides a contrast to the rest of the song and adds to the theme of living life on one's own terms. In the end, the repetition of "I'm an outcast" reinforces the central message of the song: that the singer values their independence and individuality above all else.
