In Valley's song "Man Outta You" the lyrics begin with a powerful metaphor of falling ten thousand feet, which they compare to their inability to speak coherently. The singer is young and uncertain, struggling with the feeling of burning since their lover left. The chorus sees the singer receiving advice from their lover to embrace honesty and truth, which they believe will help to make them into a stronger, more resilient person.
The second verse sees the singer still falling and struggling to sleep as they run through the fire. They see their lover turning around, likely a reference to their possible return, and the chorus repeats the advice to embrace honesty and truth. The bridge sees the singer trying to be loud, shining their lover's shoes, and once again believing that honesty and truth will make them into a better person.
Overall, the song seems to be about personal growth and resilience in the face of adversity, with honesty and truth as the key themes. The singer is struggling but hopeful and seems to believe that they can become a stronger person through embracing these positive values.
