Sunday's Song



Those who know me well know that I am a severe music junkie. I listen to almost every kind of music and use music for inspiration for my stories, and I've created numerous Pandora radio stations so I can continue to find more music. My latest musical passion is EDM, or Electronic Dance Music, with artists such as Deadmau5, Kaskade, and David Guetta among my favorite EDM artists. In fact, I'm listening to Fire in Your New Shoes by Kaskade right now, and I'm bobbing up-and-down and side-to-side in my seat. LOL.

At any rate, this song by David Guetta, which features Sia, is about strength. I don't know what the inspiration was for the song, but I think the video's inspiration was pretty clear. The video is a statement against bullying and oppressing those you perceive as weak. Because they might not be as weak as you think. Titanium is a song about resilience and telling someone, "Come on. Take your best shot. Because...I got dis. You won't hold me down."

I hope you enjoy my Sunday Song.

You shout it out
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized
But all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down
But I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, Fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down
But I won't fall
I'm titanium

You shoot me down
But I won't fall
I am titanium

Cut me down
But it's you who have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud, not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, Fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down
But I won't fall
I am titanium

Stone hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone hard, those bulletproof glass

You shoot me down
But I won't fall
I am titanium
