The song "I'm Out!!" by Leela James is about a woman who is finally breaking free from a toxic and unhealthy relationship. The lyrics convey her realization that she should have left the person a long time ago to save herself from heartache. She acknowledges that she stayed in hopes of making things right, but her partner continued to lie and hurt her, causing her to cry. The protagonist of the song decides that she has had enough and is ready to move on. She has packed her bags and is prepared to fly away, leaving her partner behind to feel the pain and sadness that she has experienced. She wants them to understand and feel the hurt she has endured. Throughout the relationship, she gave everything she had to her partner, but they constantly took from her without appreciating or reciprocating her love. The more she gave, the more they demanded. However, she has reached her breaking point and declares that she is out of love and done with the relationship. She throws up the "dubs," referencing the hand gesture for "done" or "over." The protagonist places the blame on her partner, emphasizing that they brought this situation upon themselves. She questions what they had expected her to do in response to their draining behavior. She is tired of being taken advantage of and decides it's time to leave before there is nothing left for her to lose. She refuses to let her partner suck the life out of her any longer. Ultimately, she leaves them behind, singing the blues and finding her freedom. The repetition of the line "You brought this on yourself" emphasizes the notion that the partner is responsible for the relationship's downfall. The song's overall message is one of empowerment and self-preservation, encouraging listeners to recognize their worth and leave toxic relationships behind.
