So What
Outasight Lyrics

I said so what? You got a little something on the high end
I am acknowledging that you have achieved something luxurious or expensive, but questioning whether it truly brings you happiness or fulfillment. Do you have anything to share about it?

But does it ever really make you feel good? Got something to say?
I am questioning the value of material possessions in relation to one's personal happiness or satisfaction. Do you have any thoughts on this?

What happens when your material things become immaterial?
I am asking what occurs when the things that you once valued for their material worth become unimportant or unimpressive to you. How do you perceive this change?

Does the fear in you bring you the same type of adrenaline
I am questioning whether the adrenaline rush felt from feeling scared or anxious is comparable to that felt from achieving something materialistic. How do you feel in these moments?

A few thousand hearing you sing or does it bring you to your knees
I am asking whether performing for a large crowd or achieving something materialistic brings you a sense of pride or humility. What is your emotional reaction?

While you’re clearing your brain? I know I’m after the same
I am expressing my desire to clear my mind and focus on what matters most, rather than being tied up in superficial things. I believe others can relate to this.

Treading water after every offer that has came
I am describing the feeling of constantly working hard and not making progress, as if treading water. Despite this, I continue to pursue my goals and aspirations.

Trying to be myself in the valley of the fake
I am explaining the challenge of staying true to oneself in a world that often values superficiality and insincerity. I aim to be genuine and authentic despite this.

Trying to fix myself up, every hour could break
I am acknowledging the pressure to constantly improve oneself, despite the difficulty or challenge that may arise. It can be exhausting and overwhelming at times.

And when the times get easier, now they all needing you
I am highlighting the tendency for others to seek you out or need you when you have achieved success or fame, rather than when you were struggling. It can be overwhelming.

Following the leader to the promised land
I am describing the phenomenon of people following the crowd or the latest trend in order to achieve success or happiness, rather than forging their own path.

A modest man I was before, I won the war
I am stating that I was humble and unassuming before achieving success or fame, and despite the challenge, I ultimately achieved my goals and overcame obstacles.

And when things were difficult, no one ever gave a fuck
I am expressing my frustration that when I was struggling or facing challenges, no one seemed to care or pay attention. It was a lonely and difficult time.

Maybe skill, maybe luck, either way I made it up and so what? So what?
I am acknowledging the different factors that may have contributed to my success, such as skill or luck, but ultimately shrugging off any negativity or doubts about it. What matters is that I achieved my goals.

Where do you go when everyone is gone?
I am posing the question of where to turn or go when the people who supported or helped you in achieving success are no longer there. It can be a lonely feeling.

The same people who first appeared when you got on
I am referring to the people who were there for you when you first achieved success or fame, but may no longer be around. The loyalty and support of these people may have been fleeting.

It ain’t equal to the years that made it seem so long
I am acknowledging that despite the seeming longevity of a successful career or life, the time it took to achieve it was much shorter.

For you to achieve the damn things you knew all along
I am expressing the idea that the things you knew you were capable of achieving all along were the ones that led to your success. It was a long, but rewarding journey.

And I battled the same, so original, they couldn’t give my style a name
I am describing the challenge and uniqueness of creating my own style or brand, as it was so original that it could not be labeled or named. This set me apart from others.

Now there’s a million me’s but only one runs the lane
I am acknowledging the proliferation of imitators or copycats in my field, but asserting that despite this, I am still the original or the best. I am the one who stands out.

And scores points with honesty, I ain’t after the fame
I am explaining that I prioritize honesty and genuineness over achieving fame or recognition. I want to be true to myself and my values.

And when it came to the breaking point, people raised they hands
I am describing a moment of crisis or difficulty, when the support and help of others was needed. People stepped up to help.

So I had to make a point, roll it up and fold it up
I am asserting that despite the difficulty or challenge, I persevered and pushed through. I made my point and made it count.

I walked into the joint and made it mine and when it boiled to particulars
I am describing a moment of success or achievement, when I walked into a situation and took control of it. Despite challenges or complications, the outcome was in my favor.

Getting down or living it up or giving it up
I am highlighting the different emotions and reactions one can have in life when faced with challenges or success. You can get down and feel bad, live it up and enjoy it, or give it up and walk away.

Or giving a who knows, where, how and what or maybe why
I am acknowledging the uncertainty and unpredictability of life, where we can't always anticipate or know what will come next or why things happen. It can be frustrating.

I said so what? They trying to put you down on the low end
I am asserting that despite others trying to bring you down or criticize you, it doesn't matter. You can rise above it and assert yourself confidently. Anything to share about it?

But do they ever really-really feel good? Got something to say? Yeah
I am questioning whether those who try to bring others down actually feel good about it, or whether it is simply a projection of their own insecurities. Do you have any thoughts on this?
