Getaway
I.G. Off and Hazadous Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Summer came and went
It seems like all this time that I had spent
Was wasted on a fear that never left
And now I got no more tears to dispense
I head out the door
I'm ready to show
Myself in a light that I've never before
A party and me don't usually agree
But I'm ready to see
I can be someone
Let myself have fun
But don't think it's done
Cause I've just begun
I can be someone
Let myself have fun
But don't think it's done
Cause I've just begun
Decembers coming soon
It feels like almost yesterday was June
Too soon
Each year that I go through
Feels like it's going faster than I do
I do
I head out the door
I'm ready to show
Myself in a light that I've never before
A party and me don't usually agree
But I'm ready to see
I head out the door
I'm ready to show
Myself in a light that I've never before
A party and me don't usually agree
But I'm ready to see
I can be someone
Let myself have fun
But don't think it's done
Cause I've just begun
I can be someone
Let myself have fun
But don't think it's done
Cause I've just begun
Feelings out the way
I'm needing a getaway
Feelings out the way
I'm needing a getaway
I can be someone
Let myself have fun
But don't think it's done
Cause I've just begun
I can be someone
Let myself have fun




But don't think it's done
Cause I've just begun

In the first verse, the lyrics reflect a feeling of wasted time and a lingering fear that has not been overcome. Summer has come and gone, symbolizing the passing of time, and the singer realizes that they have spent too much of that time being afraid.

However, with a newfound determination, they decide to step out of their comfort zone and show a side of themselves that they have never revealed before. They acknowledge that parties and they usually don't mix well, but they are ready to explore and discover a different side of themselves.


The second verse mentions December approaching rapidly, giving a sense of time passing quickly. The reference to it feeling like yesterday was June emphasizes how the year seems to be slipping away faster than the singer can keep up with. They once again express their readiness to step out the door and present themselves in a new light. They mention that parties and they don't normally agree, but they are willing to give it a chance. They emphasize their intent to experience new things, indicating that they have just begun their journey of self-discovery.


In the chorus, the lyrics express a desire for a getaway from overwhelming emotions. The singer wants to set aside their feelings and escape from whatever is burdening them. It suggests that they want to find a place or a state of mind where they can let loose, have fun, and be someone different from who they have been in the past. They caution against thinking that their journey is over, emphasizing that they have only just started and there is more to come.


Overall, the lyrics reflect a theme of personal growth and the desire to break free from the confines of fear and emotional burdens. The singer embarks on a journey to discover a different side of themselves, to let go of their inhibitions, and to find joy and fun.
