Put my backpack on to do my thing
But the bouncer wouldn't let me in
He just stood there with a stupid grin
Last time I went on crying
But I kept trying
'Cause he don't know the moves that I'm supplying
I'm gonna bounce back up
And kick some asses
I've waited long enough
You think you own me
You don't control me
You think you hurt me
Saying that I'm freaky
You're just afraid
I'm here to stay
Just 'cause I'm different
I should've walked away
You think you own me
I control you
You think you own me
I control you
(Okay) own me
I control you
You think you own me
I control you
You're a freak
Don't belong 'cause you're alone and weak
But I'm just as cool as I am geek
Mr. Power I am all on fleek
And this time I won't be crying
No, I'm not buying
You know the slide as the moves that I'm supplying
I'll take my glasses
I'm gonna bounce back up
And kick some asses
I'm 'bout to call your bluff
You think you own me
You don't control me
You think you hurt me
Saying that I'm freaky
You're just afraid
I'm here to stay
Not gonna be that geek who walked away
You think you own me
You don't control me
You think you hurt me
Saying that I'm freaky
You're just afraid
I'm here to stay
Just 'cause I'm different
I shouldn't walk away
You think you own me
I control you
You think you own me
I control you
(Okay) own me
I control you
You think you own me
I control you
Own me
I control you
You think you own me
I control you
You think you own me
I control you
You think you own me
I control you
The lyrics of Vigiland's song "Friday Night" portray a story of a person who is being prevented from entering a club by the bouncer. But instead of giving up and walking away, the person decides to take control of the situation by "bouncing back up" and showing the bouncer and others in the club the moves that he/she is "supplying". The person asserts that just because they are different, it does not mean they should walk away or be ashamed of it. They go on to declare that they control the bouncer and not the other way around. The lyrics suggest that the person is confident in their uniqueness and is not afraid to stand out and be themselves.
The song celebrates individuality and confidently challenges societal pressures to conform. It exemplifies the idea that it is important to be true to oneself and not let anyone else define or control one's identity. Moreover, it encourages the listener to be proud of who they are and not be afraid to express themselves even if it may be seen as "freaky" by others.
