Outside
Lo-Fye Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's so hard
I swear (too hard, too hard)
It's so hard
Going outside alone (alone)
All these monsters want me gone
Walking outside, always Sunglasses and a hat
Feeling so cold, all eyes on me, Fuck (Fuck, fuck)
Walking alone to my home town
Feelin' so strange, I see hate all Around (all around)
Everyone look me like a thugger (Yeah)
Talking about how I turned to a Rapper (yeah, yeah, pa-pa)
Point at me with their finger (grr)
It effects me, I want to pull the Trigger (pa-pa)
I stop, I said, don't do it, it's okay
This is my life since for ever, Exactly the same (exactly the Same, exactly the same)
That's why
I don't want to go outside (Outside)
I'm afraid, I might die (die)
It's so hard (hard)
Oh so hard
I swear it's too hard
Going outside alone
All these monsters want me gone (Want me gone, pa-pa, want me Gone, yeah)
All these monsters want me gone (Yeah, want me gone, pa-pa, want Me gone)
Creating alone in my room is so Priceless (yeah)
Way better than be out with these Monsters
Using all my genius to escape (Escape)
From all of you that want me slave (Slave)
I wish you can see, how much I Work (Yeah)
How much, I sacrifice to make this Drop (yeah)
All the days, I'm staying home
No communication, with the Outside world (yeah, yeah, yeah, Pa-pa-pa)
Staying alone in my room, Drawing all my plans on the wall
If you see, you would be shocked (Shocked)
Probably think something is Wrong (Yeah)
How a kid like me gonna make it All (Make it all, pa-pa-pa)
This road too long, too long (too Long)
But I'm gonna take it all (take it All)
I'm trying every day more and More (More and more, more and More, pa-Pa)
Probably think, something is Wrong (Yeah)
How a kid like me gonna make it All (Make it all)
This road, too long, too long
But I'm gonna take it all
I'm trying every day more and More (More and more, pa-pa)
Maybe it's a silly dream (it's my Time now)
But I'm already 3 days with no Sleep (Yeah)
Am I dreaming that I'm working
Or am I working on my dream? (Working on my dream, pa-pa)
Creating alone in my room is so Priceless (yeah)
Way better than be out with these Monsters (monsters)
Using all my genius to escape (Escape)
From all of you that want me slave (Slave)
Every-time I go outside, it's hard (So hard)
I feel having a panic attack (pa-pa)
Feeling a cold inside me
No one beside me
Monsters want to eat me alive
But I'm already dead inside (Inside)
That's why
I don't go outside
That's why (that's why)
That's why (that's why)
I don't go outside
That's why (that's why)
In Lo-Fye's song "Outside," he talks about the struggles of life, the inevitability of death, and the unfairness of it all. The opening lines, "You already know what it is, Los to the Diggity," serve as an introduction to the theme of the song, which is about the harsh realities of life. Lo-Fye then takes us on a journey of self-reflection and introspection as he discusses his emotions while high and outside, looking up at the sky and crying. He questions why his loved ones have to die, why angels lie, and why they all have to burn in the fire. The repetition of the line "I get high and go outside, look up in the sky and start to cry" highlights his emotional state and the vulnerability that comes with it.
The second verse serves as a contrast to the first, as Lo-Fye describes turning to drink and drugs to cope with his pain. He talks about the demons in his mind, bad influences around him and the police who are always after him. He admits that he would rather stay inside where he is safe and smokes alone, away from the troubles of the world. But even in this safe space, he drowns himself in drink, pictures and smoking, feeling like he's falling deeper into the darkness. He mentions the "real-life Bird Box," which might refer to the 2018 horror movie where the characters have to navigate the world blindfolded, as a metaphor for the dangers of the outside world.
Overall, the song delves into the subjects of life, death, and dealing with the pain and loss of loved ones. Lo-Fye's raw emotions and honesty are on display as he confronts these difficult themes.
