being a outsider is hard... i'm a loner naturally and sometimes i feel so alone and isolated from the world even in the christian community.. but Jesus says he will never leave you nor forsake you.... and i believe him
+EliteAthlete15 Amen! I went to Lecrae's concert before a he told everyone in the middle of this rap song and he said to everyone "why would you want to be accepted by other people that don't accept you but you where accepted by the creator of man!' That stuck out to me and I wanted to past it to everyone here!
+Shanaya Hutson your not alone ive alwayse been an outside but, nobody stays a loner forever because you have jesus with you, and you have to remember to alwayse believe and never forget that your not alone
Don't sacrifice your morals, your personality, your hobbies, your likes/dislikes… don't sacrifice WHO YOU ARE because of other people. They won't matter. Looking for worldly opinion is like turning to darkness for advice. The only purely good thing to look to is God. He makes you who you are. Never change for such worldly ways - change for the better. God loves you as you are and just wants to help you. God bless you all. ❤️
It's something how a song you're listening to it's not just a song but a song that has become something you can connect with and possibly be going through it right now
Im an outsider, because as a man, I'm emotional; I love animals and love helping people, and even if it might seem "weak" by many, then, I'd rather be an outsider.
This song made me realize that I will always be an outsider. I remember the moment my good friends starting drinking and doing drugs. I couldn't help but break apart from that group of people in high school because I am an outsider, and I would never sacrifice what's right just to fit in.
Cody Hicks King David said that I will rather stand at the gates of the Temple, than sleep in the house of the wicked. When you consumed with the presence, acceptance and love of God, the world will not satisfy you because the world cannot offer you what God can and that's eternal life with Him.
Psalm 84:10 Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
Lecraes accuracy on this entire album is on spot bulls eye. You know how some albums theres like 1 or 2 songs you dont really like, well this album EVERY song is super awsome. When you sing along you can feel the warmth and praise to God even though his name is hardly used in the lyrics. That is superb skill.
Exactly i think in a interview he said he wanted to make the album so that it relates to everyone but threw in his faith to show the love of God. And i feel he properly achieved that. Nothing but realness
As Christians, we are familiar with hate, death, persecution. But that doesn't mean we have to succumb to the world. This place is only temporary; God is forever. We just gotta wait on him, no matter what people say. That's what this song has taught me..... Never fear, never give in, never compromise.... Because of who we stand for. And one day, it will be "brighter on the other side".
"If the world hates you, realize that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own; but because you do not belong to the world, and I have chosen you out of the world, the world hates you. Remember the word I spoke to you, 'No slave is greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you." John 15:18-20
Praise God! Lecrae - Outsider (Lyric Video) is another awesome display of God using a young man's spiritual gifts for God's glory. - 1 Corinthians 12: 4-6
+Diana Georgianna He's talking about how some people hate people just because their Christian. And in this song, an outsider is a Christian. He's saying that he rather be Christian than follow everyone else whose smoking, doing drugs, adultery, and other things that God doesn't approve of. He's saying that he proud to be an outsider(a Christian). I hope this helped.
this and timepiece are seriously the best songs on the album... when you actually sit and read the lyrics as the song is playing....WOW... so many people just listen to the beat and flow which i've been guilty of in the past... but when you actually comprehend what the dude is saying and throw in the dope beats and flow the song becomes a million times better.
I've accepted that I am an outsider just naturally. I've been a loner since I was in sixth grade and I've learned to accept that, though it took about 8 years I'm 20 years old now and I can honestly say I accept who I am, anxious, artistic me. I wanna be with God, nobody on this planet I envy. I prefer cats and dogs over people a lot, at least they are always loving and caring and can never been corrupted by the devil or human's bad intentions.
Thats good man :) just remember that you are not meant to be alone. God made woman because he saw that adam was alone, Jesus had disciples because he couldnt walk the earth and do what God called him to do ALONE!!! Just remember that God has never intended for you to walk through life alone :)
I'm being gang stalked isolated by satan's followers but this song helps me get through and the light of our father shine through in this dark time in my life
I am a Christian. I get hate. excuse me. all followers of Christ get hated or at least judged simply because we are believers of God. But stay strong Keep your faith with God! Maybe people around you are dragging you away from God . Not saying forget them but if your a believer and wanna continue to but the ones around you bring you away from him, maybe they just need to be left alone. I have to deal with that choice. Still struggling with those choices to this day.....
I failed at being you, but I'm winning at being me!Powerful!! You do not have to compromise at what God has called you to be, at the expense of being approved by the world. People will pay you if they have to so that you can shut up about your faith. But nothing in this world can be compared to eternal life with our Saviour. Besides this world's prosperity cannot be compared to the prosperity that God has for His people in the new Jerusalem,
Just have to say something. I see so many of the comments like "this album could go plenty of ways" "he doesn't make it clear who he's worshiping and talking about" and honestly, does he have to? He is a CHRISTIAN artist, he is obviously speaking of God and worshiping Him through his music. It annoys me when people try to make more out of it than there actually is. It is not hard to make that connection. I'm sure most of the comments are people that need something to ramble about, but I just needed to try and make that clear. He is Christian, so he expects those listening to make the obvious and common sense connection that he is speaking of and worshiping God.
I know exactly what you're saying he's worshiping Our Father is a believer in Jesus Christ and even the best of us back slide but you say he's Illuminati or anything like that it's just an assumption even the best of us back slide which means we are not perfect and all that pressure he had to deal with you can only expect a man to backslide look at Solomon for example
very nice. I like alot of jazz, blues, and a electronic mix of the two. This is a soulful marriage of the two with a positive message! Many blessings to you!
Woah man.. Struggling with my faith and trying to get acceptance from people even closest to me, who seriously aren't putting Him in the right place in their lives... I get ridicule sometimes for the things i say... but am refusing to follow suit, fighting hard not to judge them or judge the way they judge...- this song describes the very struggle i am going through now- staying true to Him and to myself, amidst all the rest... and their grain...
This rapper has given me a new understanding of Jesus.He has songs that are more than just songs,they are like poems that have been stitch into my heart and will never leave.He is a true hero.GOD bless you Lecrae.Also I want to encourage everyone who wants to give up or throw in the towel.I really hope you all will be blessed.
It's coo to be an outsider especially when you still standing or kneeling Inside of GOD and all of his Grace Mercy and Favor!!!! Stay Blessed even in trials! Stay humble it's and inside thing!
This album... The Lord has blessed this album. 4 years later and it still holds so much meaning for me. God really did a great work in me through this album. Got me through freshman year (became a f'real Christian that previous summer) stronger than I went in.
I relate hardcore to this song. I've always felt left out but I'm never alone in Jesus Christ. So even when I'm alone I never feel lonely. I've overcome my abandonment issues. We need o he like wolves and be independent but know when to stand together
Thank you for being an example of an anomaly! Thank you for this song. It gives me strength when I'm doubting myself and who God made me to be. It gives courage so thank you so much!
I listened to this Album and I really liked it. My favorite two songs are don't do it and messengers. I like all the songs but these two stood out to me for various reasons. While I was listening to the this whole album, I put on my head phones chills ran down my spine as I got into a peace of mind, saying talk to me Lacrea, talk. The message that he has about Jesus is crazy, cool, and awesome. All his beats go hard... like literally they definitely give the head phones some base!!!!
this song relates to my life because we are following the footsteps of this world and we are looking forward to perfection. but as children of God we do not belong here Gods word says not to fall in love with this world.....there's plenty of people like me we don't wanna be inside the whole time we want to be who we really are outside because I'm failing being you but I'm wining at being me........
I Love what you do for the people, I Love what you do for me and my son! I am constantly praying for you and your family! May God Bless and Keep you! ,116!!!
Lecrae....Thank you for sharing your gift 🎁 of music 🎶 to the world!! Your conviction and compassion is soooo heartfelt ♥️. Prayers for you and your family! I'm 62 from Maine, so hip hop is not typical exposure in my life. However, I'm reading your book 📖 for the 2nd time....what a journey...you are a blessing to many. May God continue to lead and guide you!
This is just the song that I needed to hear. I have really been struggling with the direction that our country is going in, especially with gay marriage. This song is very encouraging!
The bible does say that being gay is a sin, and I am a Christian. I believe in what the bible says, but the 1st Amendment does say that there should be a separation of church and state (without that we might not have much freedom of religion). Therefore, it is unconstitutional for gay marriage to be illegal because of what the bible says. I think that we, as Christians, should just focus on the positive parts of people. We should celebrate and love on people.We should leave what a person is doing to sin between them and God.
+Trae Mitchell I agree that we need to focus on the positive aspects of all people, just as Jesus focused on the positive parts of sinners like you and me. However as a Christian I feel obligated to hold up the laws God put in place for the whole country.
+Nathan Well I don't think that it is fair that people who have sex before marriage can get married without a whole lot of Christians saying anything but gay people can't have the same thing. If you are going to fight for what God put in place for the country you shouldn't focus o just a few of them; you should focus on all of the laws.
this song addresses the fact that people will wear material things to hide the bad part of them and hes saying that there are those people who want to be themselves and let themselves be them no matter what others think about them.
I kind of got that vibe that he was talking about people who work 9 to 5 everyday, it's like being in a prison which is kind of true for a lot of people that hate there jobs.
This song reminds me of the abusive situation I'm in dealing with a alcoholic who I have a child with. It's been so traumatic and this song is beautiful, speaks right through me. God bless everyone. Thank you God I know you're out there. I'm listening
I have depression and today was one of my worst episodes. All of a sudden, this song pops in my head and I honestly was going to ignore it, but I'm glad I didn't. No, I'm thankful more than I can even comprehend. I was young when this came out, and I didn't truly understand the lyrics until today. I'm crying right now, and I hate to admit that it's because I know it's due to my faith wavering since I graduated. I feel worse because I know God did this on purpose as a result. I won't say Lecrae was ahead of his time, because I'm sure it was just as relevant back then (at least for myself). But, had this song came out today, I feel like people would be receptive to listening because it's such a reality now.
"Gaikokujin" is what all non-Japanese are called in Japan. Living as an outsider has helped me understand how minorities in the US feel; really appreciate this song of encouragement and self-acceptance.
This song continually comforts and gives me the courage I need to live this life following Christ when I'm put on the outside Thank you Lecrae. God bless you always
“Standing outside of your prison, tryna find ways I could get in, now I realize that I’m free, and I realize that I’m me, and I found out that I’m not alone cuz there’s plenty people like me” This song makes me want to go save the souls of those who have not seen the light of Jesus in their lives
Lately I'm ashamed of myself for conforming to my friends ideals just trying to fit in in highschool this year I've made more mistakes than ever I am finally learning it's not worth it and I'd rather follow God I wish I were on the outside but it will take time with God at my side
keep following God no matter what girl. don't serve the world ,no matter what your friends say . you will be ridiculed like Jesus was . he said don't be suprised that the world hates you because it hated him first. he loves you. stay faithful to him and great is your reward. if yoy ever need someone to talk to . heres my kik jesuslover_bruh. im 20 years old just incase you want to know.
+Emerald May that reminds me of John 13:10 *"Jesus answered, “Those who have had a bath need only to wash their feet; their whole body is clean."* Music, friends, movies, fashion, a lot of influences creep into our daily life--sometimes we actively go out and get them--and some of those things or people may not be pleasing to God. It's good to reflect on what needs to be washed and then wash it because this world will get our spiritual feet dirty and we're in spiritual warfare. Soldiers know to keep their feet healthy because once they're injured, fighting, defending, being mobile is even harder.
Man this song struck something in me I have been deniying God and then letting him in and then shutting him out again untill I heard this song I promise you father no matter what I will stay an outsider like you want me to be I'm done trying to impress the wrong people thanks so much lecrae your music plays a big role in my life man never stop
Luv this 1, he's sayin it ok to be an outsider and an anomaly for God, who cares if you don't fit in with ppl, u always fit in with God, good message by Lecrae

Michael Polewski dont let anyone take God from you!! Trust me you did the right thing.
Don’t ever sacrifice God to fit in even if you have to be the last one to represent Jesus don’t ever give up
This song is even more relevant today. I had this album as soon as it dropped and even in 2022 it's still dope!
With out God I'm nothing. I rather be an outsider . I'm not part of the evil world I am with God

This came to me at our Lord's perfect time. Being a Christian sometimes makes u feel alone.. Thank u bro Lecrae for these songs
Lecraes accuracy on this entire album is on spot bulls eye. You know how some albums theres like 1 or 2 songs you dont really like, well this album EVERY song is super awsome. When you sing along you can feel the warmth and praise to God even though his name is hardly used in the lyrics. That is superb skill.
Was thinking the same thing. I love also that this is an album that anyone, Christian or not can relate to; the feeling of being an anomaly 🙌🏾😄
Exactly i think in a interview he said he wanted to make the album so that it relates to everyone but threw in his faith to show the love of God. And i feel he properly achieved that. Nothing but realness
Just one thing to say... PREACH IT!!
As Christians, we are familiar with hate, death, persecution.
But that doesn't mean we have to succumb to the world. This place is only temporary; God is forever. We just gotta wait on him, no matter what people say. That's what this song has taught me.....

Patiently waited for this albums 10 year anniversary
Ever feel like a loud cry..
Holy, holy , holy...
I love this song. it reminds me not to forget who I am. and that I can be my self. thank you lecrae.

Holy Spitter. The Holy spirit has blessed him with his lyrics and flow. This is not your average rapper.
One of my favorite songs off the album. This song is so real. Just speaks the truth.

this song addresses the fact that people will wear material things to hide the bad part of them and hes saying that there are those people who want to be themselves and let themselves be them no matter what others think about them.
correct me if im wrong
I also believe that he is talking about people who believe in god that are trying to be apart of the world and not be an outsider
I kind of got that vibe that he was talking about people who work 9 to 5 everyday, it's like being in a prison which is kind of true for a lot of people that hate there jobs.
This song reminds me of the abusive situation I'm in dealing with a alcoholic who I have a child with. It's been so traumatic and this song is beautiful, speaks right through me. God bless everyone. Thank you God I know you're out there. I'm listening
This guy is such good, many wow.
I have depression and today was one of my worst episodes. All of a sudden, this song pops in my head and I honestly was going to ignore it, but I'm glad I didn't. No, I'm thankful more than I can even comprehend. I was young when this came out, and I didn't truly understand the lyrics until today. I'm crying right now, and I hate to admit that it's because I know it's due to my faith wavering since I graduated. I feel worse because I know God did this on purpose as a result. I won't say Lecrae was ahead of his time, because I'm sure it was just as relevant back then (at least for myself). But, had this song came out today, I feel like people would be receptive to listening because it's such a reality now.
Even though I'm no longer a Christian, lecrae is one of the few Christian artists i still come back too
no longer Christian?
its funny isnt it? no longer christian but still do listen to christian music! this brother needs some love! ;)
even though you may not accept Christ now if you did before your salvation is there for eternity
trust me go back to christ
GOD WILL ACCEPT U!!!!!
amen!
"Gaikokujin" is what all non-Japanese are called in Japan. Living as an outsider has helped me understand how minorities in the US feel; really appreciate this song of encouragement and self-acceptance.
tracing Lecrae's past to present is so awesome. Using worldly fame to promote jesus! Keep it up 'Crae!!!!!!!
This song continually comforts and gives me the courage I need to live this life following Christ when I'm put on the outside
Thank you Lecrae. God bless you always
Listing to NF's new song Out Cast and this song popped in the back of my mind.
“Standing outside of your prison, tryna find ways I could get in, now I realize that I’m free, and I realize that I’m me, and I found out that I’m not alone cuz there’s plenty people like me”
This song makes me want to go save the souls of those who have not seen the light of Jesus in their lives
All unashamed and all unafraid to live out what we're supposed to be. Outsiders!
I never fit in because my voice was different. I love being me and different than others thank you for showing me that message amen.
OMG love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
watch the way you talk
Why was this published on 2014 it on 2016?

I Owned 3 CDs as a kid and this was one of them and hearing it again reminds me of a better time so thank you
Many blessings ❤
This song is my anthem in 2019!
Temptation is always knocking on my door.and lecrae keeps me strong 💪..thank you.
I am on the outside so we be on the inside of heaven
I am getting this album right now!!!!! I've listened to several songs n the creativity n message is great.
Lately I'm ashamed of myself for conforming to my friends ideals just trying to fit in in highschool this year I've made more mistakes than ever I am finally learning it's not worth it and I'd rather follow God I wish I were on the outside but it will take time with God at my side
"the race is not giving to the swift, but to those who finish the race" apostle Paul.... keep believing Sis
keep following God no matter what girl. don't serve the world ,no matter what your friends say . you will be ridiculed like Jesus was . he said don't be suprised that the world hates you because it hated him first. he loves you. stay faithful to him and great is your reward. if yoy ever need someone to talk to . heres my kik jesuslover_bruh. im 20 years old just incase you want to know.
+Emerald May that reminds me of John 13:10 *"Jesus answered, “Those who have had a bath need only to wash their feet; their whole body is clean."* Music, friends, movies, fashion, a lot of influences creep into our daily life--sometimes we actively go out and get them--and some of those things or people may not be pleasing to God. It's good to reflect on what needs to be washed and then wash it because this world will get our spiritual feet dirty and we're in spiritual warfare. Soldiers know to keep their feet healthy because once they're injured, fighting, defending, being mobile is even harder.
Mhen @May i really relate with ur situation. i just only trust God to help us
Highschool is rough, praying for ya
I needed this so bad. Yessss.
I grew to love this song.. It took some time to grasp my feelings with this record but man this song is deep
Man this song struck something in me I have been deniying God and then letting him in and then shutting him out again untill I heard this song I promise you father no matter what I will stay an outsider like you want me to be I'm done trying to impress the wrong people thanks so much lecrae your music plays a big role in my life man never stop
Nice. We gotta carry dat cross
Luv this 1, he's sayin it ok to be an outsider and an anomaly for God, who cares if you don't fit in with ppl, u always fit in with God, good message by Lecrae
