Hixxy & Sy feat. Unknown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The freaks and I
We go out in the night
The freaks and I
The freaks and I
We pretend to blend in
Among the electric light
Blessed with lungs to laugh
Blessed with teeth to nash
Blessed with drugs that come on hard and fast
We're alive in a world of unusual things
Curious people, horns, halos, and wings
And everyone can feel the burn
The heat is on, turn after turn
The freaks and I
The freaks and I
We talk shit all the time
The freaks and I
The freaks and I
We make a few new friends
If we feel inclined
Dressed to make a splash
Young and strapped for cash
Tortured by the past despite the fact
We're alive in a world of unusual things
Surely the gods must be joking
And everyone will laugh out loud
If the truth ever comes out
Blessed with lungs to laugh
What more can you ask than that?
The freaks and I
The freaks and I
We go out in the night
The song "Freaks" by Hixxy & Sy feat. Unknown is an energetic and vibrant ode to the unique and unconventional experiences that life has to offer. Through its lyrics, the song celebrates the sense of belonging and camaraderie that comes with embracing one's quirks and quirks of others. The chorus featuring "The freaks and I" is repeated several times to emphasize the sense of unity and belonging that arises when people who are considered 'different' come together.
In the first verse, the song talks about going out at night, and how there's a sense of excitement and adventure that comes with the darkness. The freaks and the singer pretend to blend in among the electric light, implying that they recognize that they are different from others but choose to embrace their uniqueness anyway. The second verse features the line "Blessed with lungs to laugh, blessed with teeth to nash, blessed with drugs that come on hard and fast." This line is a reference to how living an unconventional, hedonistic lifestyle can be both exciting and dangerous.
The bridge of the song highlights the fact that everyone can feel like an outcast at some point in their life, whether it's due to their looks, beliefs, or interests. However, the singer asserts that they're alive in a world of unusual things, where curious people, horns, halos, and wings exist. The sense of inclusivity and community that this line projects is emphasised in the chorus again. The final verse talks about how the freaks talk shit all the time, but they're okay with that. They're out to make a splash and find new friends, no matter how strapped for cash they may be or what past struggles they may have endured.
Overall, the song celebrates life's unconventional and extraordinary experiences and the people who embrace them. It is an anthem for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider, reminding us that embracing our differences is what makes us unique and brings us together.
