Lecrae - Get Out My Way Lyrics

Get Out My Way Lyrics

Pre-Chorus: Lecrae
It's no days off (It's no days off)
I take no breaks (I take no breaks)
You in my lane (Get out my lane)
You in my way (Get out my way)
You crossed that line (You crossed that line)
It ain't yo' day (It ain't yo' day)
I lost my mind (I lost my mind)
I need my space

Chorus: Tedashii
Get out my way (Yeah)
Get out my way (Yeah)
Get out my way (Woo)
Get out my way (Ugh)
Get out my way (Move)
Get out my way (Yeah, skrt, skrt)
Get out my way (Woo)
Get out my way (Well)
I ain't never been safe

Verse 1: Lecrae
Move
Black Forgiatos on the tires got me sitting high like a gladiator
Life on the line, cross the state line, straight face when I navigate it (Skrt)
You don't know about the fast life
I got scars from my last fight
Ice water in my bloodstream from some old things in my past life
This is not what you wanted, you hunt or be hunted, no turning back and running from it
It's one and done, you better run it (Run it)
You taste defeat or overcome it (Yeah)
You can't tell me nothing else, been seven summers running through the jungle
Everyday a struggle
People throwing stones and tryna make us stumble
Rose up out the rubble, tell 'em they'd get trouble (Trouble)

Pre-Chorus: Lecrae
So all y'all back up (Back up, back up)
Or go call backup (Or go call backup)
I just got knocked down (Yeah, uh)
I still got back up (I still got back up)
It's no days off, boy (It's no days off)
I take no breaks (I take no breaks)
I lost my mind
I need my space

Chorus: Tedashii
Get out my way (Yeah)
Get out my way (Yeah)
Get out my way (Woo)
Get out my way (Ugh)
Get out my way (Move)
Get out my way (Yeah, skrt, skrt)
Get out my way (Woo)
Get out my way (Well)
I ain't never been safe

Post-Chorus: Tedashii
Ain't nobody blocking, they can't stop me, I'm on ten
Ain't no other option, they just copy what I did
Get out my way (Move)
Get out my way (Yeah, skrt, skrt)
Get out my way (Woo)
Get out my way (Well)
I ain't never been safe

Verse 2: Tedashii
Never fold when you face pain and they take aim like a movie shoot
No vest when they draw lines, I be offsides feeling bulletproof
Use my past like a flashback
Overcome, moving past that
Moving on, let the Audi run on the Autobahn, where the gas at?
Gettin' to it, yeah, I'm gettin' to it
Took a lot of hits, but I'm gettin' through it
You could make it or could make excuses
Choice is yours, I can't make you choose it
Came from nothing, but I got adopted
Treat this Expedition like a Maserati
All up in the zone, it's like it's out of body
Yeah, they got a wave, but my splash tsunami, ah
I did no go, I don't know chill, say what I want
That's how I feel, I'm 'bout to fall, I keep it trill, this be that glow
Shine be too real, they wanted smoke until they breathing mine
Second-hand smoke, I defunct, I get down
I'm showing proof to give people a sign
I keep on running 'til the clocks say it's time

Pre-Chorus: Tedashii
It's no days off (No days off)
I take no breaks (Take no breaks)
You in my lane (In my lane)
Get out my way (Get out my way)
Crossed that line (Crossed that line)
It ain't yo' day (It ain't yo' day)
I lost my mind (I lost my mind)
I need my space

Chorus: Tedashii
Get out my way (Yeah)
Get out my way (Yeah)
Get out my way (Woo)
Get out my way (Ugh)
Get out my way (Move)
Get out my way (Yeah, skrt, skrt)
Get out my way (Woo)
Get out my way (Well)
I ain't never been safe

Post-Chorus: Tedashii
Ain't nobody blocking, they can't stop me, I'm on ten
Ain't no other option, they just copy what I did
Get out my way (Move)
Get out my way (Yeah, skrt, skrt)
Get out my way (Woo)
Get out my way (Well)
I ain't never been safe

Get Out My Way Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

Released on March 8, 2019, the song "Get Out My Way" by Lecrae featuring Tedashii is a powerful anthem of perseverance and unwavering focus. The track immediately establishes a tone of intense determination, driven by a refusal to slow down or yield to opposition. The repeating calls to "Get out my way" in the chorus, delivered with forceful ad-libs, underscore a clear message: anyone hindering the artists' progress or purpose needs to step aside. This is not just about physical space but represents an assertion of direction and momentum against obstacles.

The lyrical content explores the journey of pushing forward despite challenges. The pre-chorus sets the stage with declarations of relentless work ethic ("no days off," "take no breaks") and the feeling of being encroached upon. Lines like "You crossed that line" and expressing a need for space convey a boundary being defended against interference. This sense of being pushed to the limit ("I lost my mind") highlights the intensity of the struggle they are facing and the determination required to navigate it.

Lecrae's verse delves into the experiences that have shaped this resolve. He speaks of having been through significant battles and past hardships ("scars from my last fight," "ice water in my bloodstream from some old things in my past life"). The imagery of running through a jungle and rising from rubble paints a picture of a difficult, prolonged journey marked by constant struggle and external opposition ("People throwing stones and tryna make us stumble"). His message is one of survival and dominance in the face of adversity – a call to face challenges head-on ("hunt or be hunted," "taste defeat or overcome it") and rising stronger after being knocked down.

Tedashii's verse reinforces these themes with his own perspective on resilience. He describes facing pain directly without flinching ("never fold when you face pain") and feeling impervious to attacks ("feeling bulletproof"). He highlights using past experiences as a source of strength rather than a burden ("Use my past like a flashback, Overcome, moving past that"). The narrative of coming from humble beginnings ("Came from nothing") and treating what he has with immense value ("Treat this Expedition like a Maserati") adds another layer of inspiration, emphasizing that progress and impact are possible regardless of origin. His assertion of independence and impactful presence ("my splash tsunami") signifies a force that cannot be easily contained or copied.

Overall, "Get Out My Way" is an energetic declaration of purpose and resilience. The combined voices of Lecrae and Tedashii create a sense of unstoppable momentum. The themes of enduring hardship, overcoming opposition, maintaining focus, and asserting boundaries resonate deeply, encouraging listeners to push through their own challenges with similar determination. The song's powerful delivery and assertive lyrics serve as a motivational call to action for anyone striving to achieve their goals despite the resistance they may encounter. These themes of perseverance, spiritual battle, and overcoming trials are frequently explored within the framework of faith by these artists, aligning with biblical concepts of running the race and standing firm against opposition.
