Christafari's 'Outsiders' speaks to those who feel marginalized by religious traditions and institutions. The song embraces the identity of being an outsider for the sake of genuine faith in Jesus, rejecting empty rituals and judgmental attitudes. It encourages believers who don't fit conventional molds to remain faithful and use their unique gifts to reach others. The lyrics reference turning over tables like Jesus, emphasizing zeal for God over man-made rules. The song is a declaration of love for Christ apart from religiosity, and a call to serve without being confined by committees or boards.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Wayo oh oh

This one?s for the fringe

To those who don?t fit in

We?re on the outside looking in 


And this one?s for us fools

For breaking all the rules

Because your rules are not of Him


They call us victims of tradition

We?re on the outside looking in

Yet we?re surrounded by suspicions

Accused of being sin


Yes we are the outsiders (outsiders)

On the outside looking in

We are the outsiders (outsiders)

On the outside looking in


This ones for the crew

Who are trying to break through

But none of you will let us in


And this one?s for those rebels

Who would turn over all the tables

And unleash the zeal of the Father within


We?re victims of tradition

We?re on the outside looking in

Yet we?re surrounded by suspicion

Just because we don?t fit in


We are the outsiders (outsiders)

On the outside looking in

We are the outsiders (outsiders)

On the outside looking in


I?m not religious

I just love Jesus

It?s not about traditions

I just love the Lord


I?m not religious

I just love Jesus

I?m not about your traditions

No, I just love the Lord


We are the outsiders (outsiders)

On the outside looking in

We are the outsiders (outsiders)

On the outside looking in


They?re calling me

Persona non grata

Because I sing this reggae music for the Father

Yes indeed 

Persona non grata - woy - yeah!


Well I just wanna be a blessing

I just want to serve the Lord

But you kill me with committees

And you bore me with your boards

You take a good idea then you pick it apart

How do you judge me without looking in my heart

So Sadducees and Pharisee

No bother try judge me

I?m unconventional with no apology

Unorthodox with dreadlocks

(You) can?t keep me in a box

But I?m reaching to the fray

In a way that you cannot no way

Oh yeah!

Persona non grata

And so I?ll use my music to reach another

Yes Indeed

Persona non grata woy - yeah!


I guess I am an outsider (outsiders)

On the outside and I?m proud

I am an outsider (outsiders)

On the outside reaching out
