Devin Cheff, Kody - Outside Lyrics

Die for the outside
Die for the outside
Die for the outside
From the outside looking in, you'll see no difference
And to get my point across, I shouldn't have to get into specifics
But all I see is ignorance and racial division
That's pushed by our politicians who say they for the people
But never listen
Solving all our problems through demolition
On land that we got no business going on for these expeditions
And I was told by everybody I know
Who's in the military that I should never fucking get enlisted
And I don't mean to sound so pessimistic
But land of the free and home of the brave's a twisted definition
Think for myself, never playing by the rules
They only show us our side of the story in schools, huh
Come to find out spreading the truth's considered taboo
This culture's taught me more than what I've learned in classrooms
This that type of shit we break our backs to
And look at the system and realize we gotta act soon
They expect us to make riches out of rags
Freedom of expression
But they say fuck all that kneeling shit
All hail to our blood-stained flag
Retrace our steps back into the same predicament
Die for the outside
Die for the outside
Die for the outside
We've been illegally annexed by the system that we now live under
Held at gunpoint but the people never asked for shit from 'em
And I've seen our kupuna getting arrested for nothing
On the very same land that was stripped from 'em
We've got a habit of talking smooth and lying
And thinking what's yours is mines
And buying sacred land to occupy it
The narrative that we've been taught is so one-sided
And I done seen too much to wanna get behind it
Don't want this song to be timeless
'Cause that'll only mean that nothing has changed
We stuck in our ways
I love this country but it hurts seeing it suffer in pain
Wanna think this is temporary, we stuck in a phase, but nah
It almost feels like we're in too deep to move on
Too focused on picking sides to see a day to find out who won
Look in the mirror, see who's wrong
'Cause we let history repeat itself for far too long, uh
They expect us to make riches out of rags
Freedom of expression, but they say fuck all that kneeling shit
All hail to our blood-stained flag
Retrace our steps back into the same predicament
Die for the outside
Die for the outside
Die for the outside

Die for the outside
Die for the outside
Die for the outside
From the outside looking in, you'll see no difference
And to get my point across, I shouldn't have to get into specifics
But all I see is ignorance and racial division
That's pushed by our politicians who say they for the people
But never listen
Solving all our problems through demolition
On land that we got no business going on for these expeditions
And I was told by everybody I know
Who's in the military that I should never fucking get enlisted
And I don't mean to sound so pessimistic
But land of the free and home of the brave's a twisted definition
Think for myself, never playing by the rules
