My 8th grade year was like a Firework, it was awesome like the explosion at the top and not so good like the died down part of it. The song “Firework” by Katy Perry has told the tale of my year and summed it up. The song “Firework” shows my astonishing and lousy moments in the year. This year has been great like when I got my presidential award and finally let myself be myself, and not so good when I lost some of my friends. This trip through the year has been crazy. The first amazing experience that I had was when I got the presidential award. A lyrics that stood out to me in the song really explains how I felt in this moment, “Baby, you're a firework. Come on, let your colours burst. Make 'em go, ‘Ah, ah, ah.’ You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe.” When it says, “You’re gonna leave ‘em all in awe, awe, awe.” it explains how I was feeling because it shows that I felt I could make myself and others proud. When I got the Presidential Award I was very proud and it made me realize that I can do anything I set my mind to. This experience was one of many that have made my year a great one. …show more content…
I lost two of my very close friends. “Do you ever feel like a plastic bag. Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?” this lyric in the song has really captured what I was feeling in this moment of time. I felt like not many people liked me. I felt like I didn’t have many friends and this lyric shows what I was going through. It shows that life doesn’t always have amazing experiences and life isn’t always going to be perfect. I fell into a very dark place and didn’t want to show anyone this because I wanted to look “perfect”. This lyric really showed what happened in my
The metaphors illustrated in Katy Perry’s song “Fireworks” allow the audience to make a connection between fireworks and personalities. The rhetor uses persuasive and effective metaphors throughout the song to deliver their message to the world. Each quality of metaphor is apt, novel, and simplistic. They are apt as the message being delivered is relevant to our current society. Many people try to conform to society, but this song is a reminder to be always be true to yourself.
My story has a meaningful story behind it. The story is deep for me and even for the artist and probably for many other people. Hearing songs like this can inspire you. It inspired me to be thankful for the people in my life. One day they can be here the next they could be gone. You never know what’s going on in their lives.
I chose this song because after Allie’s death Holden went insane and they were going to have him psychologized and that is what this is about it’s about insane people and people trying to make them go to rehab.
Recently in the last year, both my parents found new loved ones, and that has brought up many challenges. Bringing in new “siblings” and “parents” to my family was an obstacle that came with highs and lows. Joining families requires a lot of understanding, positivity, and compromises. All these were hard to meet, causing fighting, sadness, and confusion. Each and everyone of us in the mixed families went through many lows that required “keeping your head up.” “It’s kinda hard to watch this life go by,” is something that is aid in the song I chose. It was hard to watch my parents fall in love with other people, and also hard for me to accept change. Through this time period, I had to keep positive vibes in the back of my head in order to stay happy. I made myself believe that everything was going to be fine in the end. “Drop your worries, you are gonna turn out fine,” is a perfect part of the song that relates to my attitude in the low moments with my changing family. In the end, my parents are happy and everyone else is happy for them. Andy Grammer says, “Only rainbows after rain,” implying that something good always comes from the bad. Remembrance of this helped me get through the bad so I could reach the
This song tells a story about the struggles an immigrant deals with in America and I think ending with this lyric leaves a lasting stand on listeners to keep fighting for what they want and to not give up. I also like that he took a character from a book to show that community and the human spirit will get through bad
The track deals with the aftermath of a death of a friend and the pain that comes with it. With such a personal story like this, an intimate connection between the singer and audience is developed. The lines, “Wishing I was someone else/ Feeling sorry for myself/ And I remembered someone’s kid is dead” hit you with with reality and are possibly the most powerful on the whole record. Some of the tracks make you wonder if the twenty two year old singer songwriter is okay and for me it was “Killer”. The main theme of the song is about the lack of control people have over others and the loneliness felt when feelings are not reciprocated by those we love.
The song is a reminiscing of the past. The past here is not only here not only consists of one's previous actions and memories but also to the aspirations and dreams that one uses to have. The song symbolizes the realization that after growing up and realizing that you don't quite live up to the ideals that society tells you should.
When my name was called, it was the most surreal moment of my life. Everything I remember was a blur. I was not expecting to win the Tommy Schuman award that year.
The song “Firework” by Katy Perry is an empowering song that talks about having self-confidence and not being afraid of what others think or say. In this song, Katy Perry compares people to fireworks, saying that people can reach their full potential in life and “shine” if they show who they truly are and learn to love themselves.

Through her powerful metaphors and inspiring lyrics, Katy Perry has gotten her message across to millions and ignited a revolution of confidence and positivity. The song starts by asking the question “Do you ever feel
The experience that made me feel exuberant was when I truly perform in front of an audience for the first time in my life. Especially the reason being I always wanted to perform in front an audience because it was something that I always wanted to do. This was enormous opportunity to have an audiences come to view my performance and be as ecstatic as I was at that time. I finally felt free, proud, confident, and motivated for the first time in my life when I performed for the first time. I performed in a small town when I was still living with my father in Dowagiac Michigan.
I think this song makes me have a deeper feeling when listening to the songs audio, and breaking down the words one by one, as it feels like "Blurry face" is always on your back, but you ponder for something greater than what you are going through at the moment. Its supposedly going through what life is going to be like in the future, and can also be a realization that I've been using something such as music as a distraction, and how you can he in awe of what you've been so unconsciously doing and how long it has taken me and other s to realize it.
As the firework show came to an end, the mass exodus of people of all ages, exhausted from their busy day. headed towards the gates of Epcot. The swarm of people walked in the dark lit up by the light post scattered throughout the park, following the tall signs pointing to what winding path to take. Chatter between people about the show and their day at the park filled the night air.
We all have moments were our best just is not good enough like we failed an exam or were dumped in a relationship. That part of the song reminds me of nursing school. We are going through this crazy education just so we are able
I just lost a huge chunk of my life that I was never going to get back, but the world spun on, leaving me behind.
This is an inspirational song for an average teenage girl, but as I pointed out there were some contradictions to the lyrics and the meaning. They may want to see themselves as beautiful in every way possible, but the world is a puzzle and there is a piece that is gone because of what has become socially acceptable.
