“Outlaw” is a punk rock/rap song- expressing Josh’s feelings towards the “scene”, or in other words- the rap game.
Throughout most of his life, he’s faced many enemies- friends who turned on him, people that were envious of his rise, and many other people.
He makes it clear that; in the end, it’s...
[Intro]
Yeah
So cut the breaks, pump the gas, now I'm coming for revenge
[Verse 1]
I've been feeling like an outlaw 'cause I don't make amends
Every time I wanna win, I see 'em plotting on my end
All my enemies are seein' that I'm on, now they descend
Talkin' big game, yeah, but that ain't real, that's just pretend
Watch a legend burn comin' for the fake ones
I did it all myself, now I don't need no day ones
And nobody's on my level, watch me break in
Comin' for the scene, I see the crown and I'ma take it
[Pre-Chorus]
And I feel my body rise (Rise)
I might fall, but I won't die (Die)
[Chorus]
Oh, I might lose control
And I've been breakin' bones until my blood runs cold
And that's just all I know
I've been takin' souls and it's my temptation
No bounds, this is mine for the taking
Stand down, I'm a god in the making
[Verse 2]
I've been running things, on my mind are hundred things
Try hard to become a king, keep my eyes on everything
The second that you're finally breaking through, that's when they hate you
But that's motivation for the next time that they face you
And if I ever cared 'bout what you think, then I would fail
All these vultures watchin' me, man, they been on my trail
They don't even know what crossing me might do and might entail
But I let 'em just to show 'em when I finally lift the veil
[Pre-Chorus]
And I feel my body rise (Rise)
I might fall, but I won't die
[Chorus]
Oh, I might lose control
And I've been breakin' bones until my blood runs cold
And that's just all I know
I've been takin' souls and it's my temptation
No bounds, this is mine for the taking
Stand down, I'm a god in the making
[Outro]
Stand down, I'm a god in the making
