Outside Lyrics
Gimme your love, I want your love, give me love
I want your love, give me your love, love-love
I want your love, give me your love, show me love
Give me your love, I want your love
[Verse 1]
I'll give you the time of your life
Just wait 'til we can go outside
It's been a while we been locked in, do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do-do damn
I'm excited just to hold your hand
I'm still stuck on love like it's Krazy Glue
Me without you, I'd probably fade to blue
Another love song, look what you made me do
[Chorus]
I need someone I can play with
When it's time to go outside and play again
I need someone I can play with
When it's time to go outside and play again
[Verse 2]
I'll give you the time of your life (Time of your life)
Just wait 'til we can go outside
Well, April can't ruin our plans
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do-do damn
D'ussé for the gang, watch me pour up
Drinkin' on liquor 'til I throw up
Russian Cream Backwood rolled up
Can't wait 'til we livin' like we wanna (Mm, wanna, yeah)
I can't wait 'til we chase the sun and watch it set (Set, yeah)
I can't wait to make all the times you won't forget ('Get, yeah)
Memories that we'll pass down and reminisce, yeah
Later on when we get older, show our kids (Yeah, yeah)
Show 'em these photos of how we used to live
And tell 'em the story of how we fell in love
And teach 'em to pray, I pray that I will make it, yeah, yeah, yeah
I need someone I can play with
When it's time to go outside and play again
I need someone I can play with
When it's time to go outside and play again
[Outro]
Gimme your love, I want your love, give me love
I want your love, give me your love, love-love
I want your love, give me your love, show me love
I want your love, give me your love
About
“Outside” is the sixth and final track of 6pc Hot EP . In the song, 6LACK is talking to his love interest of how eager is to be with her physically once again when it’s alright to “go outside and play again” He is using the expression (usually associated with children) as a euphemism for the end of the social distancing of the COVID-19 pandemic when people can interact and mingle once again.

In an interview by Fast Company, 6LACK discusses his creative process of the EP during quarantine:
You have songs like ‘I Know My Rights,’ you have songs like ‘Outside,’ about wanting to be back outside again. Quarantine was something for everybody to experience for the first time, so I just had to figure out how to translate those feelings into music form.
