On Fire
Eminem | www.Marvin-Vibez.in Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's the look in your eye, your touch, and the cut of your dress
It's putting me to the test
You're putting me to the test
You smile wide with the wind in your hair
Your eyes meet me eyes like the moon before a solar flare
Come with me if you dare
Honey, come with me if you dare
We'll ride through the night so far that we'll never be found
I don't wanna slow down
I don't wanna slow down
I feel your love with a burning desire
That rips through my heart like the flames of a raging fire
It's burning higher and higher
It's burning higher and higher
With you the city is a playground at night
Passes in a blur of cocktails and burning lights
You better hold on tight
Baby, better hold on tight
I won't stop 'til I know that you're mine
I'm praying to the stars in the sky just like a holy shrine
Please just send me a sign
Please just send me a sign
In the car, we'll get outta this town
We'll ride through the night so far that we'll never be found
I don't wanna slow down
No, I don't wanna slow down
I feel your love with a burning desire
That rips through my heart like the flames of a raging fire
It's burning higher and higher
It's burning higher and higher
And higher and higher
And burning higher and higher
Burning higher and higher
Baby, burning higher and higher
And higher and higher
Honey, it's burning higher and higher
Baby burning higher and higher
And higher and higher
The lyrics to Eminem | www.Marvin-Vibez.in's song On Fire describe a scene where a flower is growing on a wall, displaying its color without any clear motive. However, the singer suggests that the audience wouldn't understand the nature of this illusion. The song then goes on to describe a situation where things start getting heated up, like fire, with matchsticks in their eyes, and corporate greed taking over with yes-men by their side. The audience approves but fails to see the true nature of the illusion. As the warning signs become clear, it's too late to stop the fire from burning everything to the ground.
The song touches on themes of greed, illusion, and powerlessness. It's critical of the corporatization of the music industry and the illusion created by it, where the audience is unable to see beyond the surface level, and the true nature of the art gets lost in the commercialization. The flower growing on the wall is a metaphor for the art that's trying to break free from the walls of the industry, but its true nature remains unseen and underappreciated.

Well,
Yesterday my dog died, I hog tied a ho, tied her in a bow
Said next time you blow up try to spit a flow
You wanna criticize dog try a little mo'
I'm so tired of this I could blow, fire in the hole
I'm fired up so fire up the lighter and the 'dro
Better hold on a little tighter here I go
Flows tighter, hot headed as ghost rider
Cold hearted as spiderman throwin' a spider in the snow
So ya better get to blowin in flow rider
Inside of a low rider with no tires in the hole
Why am I like this? Why is winter cold?
Why is it when I talk, I'm so biased to the hoes?
Listen dog, Christmas is off, this is as soft as it gets
This isn't gob this is a blister in the salt
Those are your wounds this is the salt, so get lost
Shit dissin' me is just like pissin' off the wizard of oz
Wrap a lizard in gauze, beat you in the jaws with it
Grab the scissors and saws
And cut out your livers gizzards and balls
Throw you in the middle of the ocean in the blizzard with jaws
So sip piss like sizzurp through a straw
Then describe how it tasted like dessert to us all
Got the gall to make Chris piss in his draws
Ticklin' him go to his grave, skip him and visit his dog
You're on fire
That's how ya know your on a roll
'Cause when you hot it's like your burnin' up everyone else's cold
Your on fire
Man, I'm so fuckin' sick, I got ambulances pullin' me over and shit
You're on fire
Ya need to stop drop and roll 'cause when you say the shit
To give the whole hip hop shop the blow
You're on fire, yeah, you're on fire
I just wrote a bullshit hook in between two long ass verses
If you mistook the for a song, look
This ain't a song it's a warnin' to Brooke Hogan and David Cook
That the crook just took over so book
Run as fast as you can, stop writin' and kill it
I'm lightning in a skillet, your a fuckin' flash in a pan
I pop up you bitches scatter like hot grease splashin' a fan
Mr Mathers is the man
Yeah, I'm pissed but I would rather take this energy
And stash it in a can, come back and whip your ass with it again
Salivas like sulfuric acid in your hand it'll eat through
Anything metal the ass of iron man
Turn him into plastic so for you to think
That you could stand a fuckin' chance is assanine
Yeah, ask the nine man, hit a blind man with a coloring book
And told him color inside the lines or get hit widda fine crayon
Fuck it I ain't playin', pull up in a van and hop out
At a homeless man holdin' a sign sayin'
Vietnam vet, I'm out my fuckin' mind, man
Kick over the can beat his ass and leave him 9 grand
So if I seem a little mean to you
This ain't savage you ain't never seen the brew
You wanna get graphic we can go the scenic route
You couldn't make a belemic puke
On a piece of fuckin' corn and peanut boo
Sayin' you sick, quit playin' you prick don't nobody care
Then why the fuck am I yellin' at air
I ain't even talkin' to no one 'cause ain't nobody there
Nobody will fuckin' test me 'cause these hos won't even dare
I'm wastin' punchlines but I got so many to spare
I just thought of another one that might go here
Naw, don't waste it save it, psycho, yeah
Plus you gotta rewrite those lines that you said about Michael's hair
You're on fire
That's how ya know your on a roll
'Cause when you hot it's like your burnin' up everyone else's cold
You're on fire
Man, I'm so hot my motherfuckin' firetrucks on fire, homie
You're on fire
Ya need to stop drop and roll 'cause when you say the shit
To give the whole hip hop shop the blow
You're on fire, yeah, your on fire
You're on fire
