I'm feelin' like a bullet

Uh
Supernatural woman

Don't know what you're doin'
Got me feelin' weak
Oh, I wanna call you fever, baby
You can set a fire on me
Hot damn, pop it like a pistol, mama
You got me down on my knees, begging please
I'm comin', baby
I'm gunnin' for you, yeah

You lil' foxy queen
Everybody's watchin'
Pretty little thing
Baby, tell me, what's your fantasy?
Come closer, let's talk about it
You want white lines in a limousine
Whipped cream, and everything in-between, yeah

The lyrics to Ed Sheeran's song "BLOW" talk about his attraction to a woman who is having an intense effect on him. He compares his feeling to that of a bullet jumping out of a gun, and describes himself as feeling like a winner. The woman makes him feel weak, and he pleads for her attention. She is described as a "supernatural woman" who is doing something strange to him, making him want to create a baby with her. The song is quite sexual in nature, talking about fantasies involving a limousine and whipped cream. The chorus talks about the intensity of his desire, and how he is "coming" for her, ready to "shoot his shot" and blow her mind.
In interpretation, the song could be seen as a reflection of sexual desire and the power dynamics inherent in sexual relationships. The woman is depicted as having a certain power over the singer, making him feel weak but also driving his desire. The song portrays the singer as being in pursuit of the woman, a theme that is common in many pop songs. However, the way in which the singer talks about his desire for the woman is somewhat aggressive and forceful, likening himself to a bullet and using gun-related language. This could be seen as problematic, particularly in light of the current gun violence epidemic in the US, and raises questions about the way in which pop culture glamorizes weapons.
