“Out thë way” by Yeat is a flex-heavy anthem where he brags about his wealth, lifestyle, and success. The track emphasizes his dominance in the game, lavish purchases, and a carefree attitude towards authority and haters. Through the lyrics, Yeat paints a picture of opulence and relentless grinding, with a touch of defiance.
Right from the jump, Yeat pulls up in style, flexing with a newly acquired Urus, painted yellow, standing out like a bird. The repetition of “I-I’m-” highlights his swagger as he boasts about his finances, saying, “Inside big body, two times two, my money, bitch.” Here he’s emphasizing his massive wealth.
He keeps the momentum with lines like, “I’m swervin’ it daily,” showcasing his flashy driving skills and reckless lifestyle. Yeat is on a roll, “fuckin’ the baddest,” and buying luxury items without needing practice, asserting his natural ability to sustain his lavish habits. The repetitive mention of money doubling or tripling while others’ money is “subtractin'” underlines his financial superiority.
The lyrics continue with, “Peeled off on the jakes,” which means he’s dodging the cops effortlessly. He flexes his suburban crib, making it clear he’s above the law and out of reach. The shoutout, “free YSL out the chain gang,” references Young Stoner Life Records’ legal troubles, showing solidarity while he disses the police, calling them “birds.”
Moreover, Yeat highlights his dedication to maintaining his status, “24-7, I steady be poppin’ these pillies, these mo’fuckin’ Percs,” indicating a relentless, albeit dangerous, grind. Claiming he’s like “Osama” due to his explosive rise and impact on Earth portrays his unstoppable momentum and dominance.
Yeat’s defiance continues with, “You can’t come over here,” setting clear boundaries against opposition. Those brave enough to try are met with an AR, a powerful firearm. His refusal to post on Instagram shows he doesn’t need validation from social media, reinforcing his self-sufficiency and superiority.
“You gon’ get up and pay out” encapsulates the message to any imitators—they can’t replicate his success without significant effort. The reference to “swervin’ the motherfuckin’ jakes” again underscores his daring lifestyle and confidence in evading trouble. Yeat’s breakdown of his achievements with new watches and flaunting diamonds daily serves to solidify his frequent upgrades and high status.
The hook repeats, reinforcing the themes of wealth, style, and dominance. Yeat reiterates major points like his yellow Urus, “I make money, my thot-thot-thot,” and “I’m swervin’ it daily,” ensuring the listener knows his success isn’t a fluke—it’s a constant.
