Outside the Pack
Rusty Project Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feel no pain
I am no longer afraid
Full of joy
Glad to be behind
Glad to be behind


I am ready to live
Are you ready to die?
I Live outside the pack
The winner that arrives in last
Don’t live no one’s dream, face it


Feel no pride
I am no longer misread
Full of joy
I just see your back
You can’t see my hands


I am ready to die
Are you ready to live?
I Live outside the pack
The winner that arrives in last
Don’t live no one’s dream, face it


Live your own dreams, look inside yourself start to believe
Who the fuck you wanna be?


Finding my way through the blind crowd
Can you see what I see
They’re chasing vanity


I Live outside the pack




The winner that arrives in last
Don’t live no one’s dream, face it

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Rusty Project’s “Outside the Pack” are empowering words of encouragement for people to embrace their individuality and choose their own paths in life. The chorus “I live outside the pack, the winner that arrives in last, don’t live no one’s dream, face it” is a call to action for listeners to stop conforming to societal standards and expectations and to follow their own passions, even if it means going against the grain.


The first two stanzas set up the idea of being unafraid and proud of oneself. The line “feel no pain” could be interpreted as a metaphor for emotional pain, and the next line “I am no longer afraid” suggests that the singer has overcome their fears and is strong enough to face the challenges of life. The next stanza similarly talks about feeling no pride, suggesting that the singer no longer cares about impressing others and is secure in their own identity. The phrase “I just see your back, you can’t see my hands” suggests that the singer is ready to take action and move forward, even if others may not understand what they’re doing.


The bridge “live your own dreams, look inside yourself start to believe, who the f*ck you wanna be?” echoes the message of the chorus in urging listeners to focus on their own dreams and desires rather than trying to fit into a preconceived mold. The final stanza talks about finding one’s own way in a crowd of people who are chasing “vanity” and being true to oneself.


Overall, the song is a powerful anthem for self-expression and individuality, and encourages others to live their lives on their own terms.
