Cannonball
Justin Prime & Showtek feat. Matthew Koma Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't even know if it's yours or mine,
Projected by your fear inside
But I could see the light
Yey, when you're ready to escape
I'll be your shelter from the rain
I'll pull you under me
We can make the ground shake,
Rockin' an earthquake, quake
Show us what you got,
When the motherf-cking beat drops
Make the ground shake,
Rockin' an earthquake, quake
You and I we're honesty
The day in Taipei intensity
It's me against you, and
It's you against me
It's so hard to breath
Yey, when you're ready to escape
I'll be your shelter from the rain
I'll pull you under me
We can make the ground shake,
Rockin' an earthquake
Shake, when you're ready to escape
I'll be your shelter from the rain
I'll pull you under me
We can make the ground shake,
Rockin' an earthquake
Rockin' an earthquake
Rockin' an earthquake
Show us what you got,
When the motherf-cking beat drops
We can make the ground shake
Rockin' an earthquake
The lyrics of the song "Cannonball" by Justin Prime & Showtek ft. Matthew Koma are about two people who are struggling with their inner fears and emotions while being honest with each other. They both feel like they have lost their minds and that their fears are projecting onto each other, making it hard for them to breathe. However, when one of them is ready to escape, the other offers them shelter from the rain and promises to make the ground shake with them, creating an earthquake through their connection.
The lyrics evoke the feeling of two people who are deeply connected and understand each other's struggles. The earthquake metaphor serves as a symbol of the intensity of emotions they share and how together, they can create something powerful. The line "Show us what you got, when the motherf-cking beat drops" is an invitation to let loose and express oneself through dance and music.
Overall, the song is about finding a connection with someone that allows you to be honest and vulnerable, and the power that comes with that connection.

0:00 Turn on your speakers to 3/4 volume
0:51 start to turn the music up to max
1:02 you start to freak out and dance like crazy because the drop was deadly
1:21 you find creepers
1:25 you calm down and reduce the volume to 3/4 again to get ready for the next drop
2:08 you think the second drop I happening but they fooled u its not
2:31 you start to put the volume to max
2:44 you freak out and dance again because the drop was AMAZING
Then you keep the volume at max till the end...
Then repeat!!!!!

You and I have lost our minds
I don't even know which thoughts are mine
You're projected by a fear inside
But I can see the light
Say when you're ready to escape
I'll be your shelter from the rain
I'll pull you under me and we can make the ground shake
Like an earthquake [3x]
Show us what you got when the motherf- beat drops
Make the, make the ground shake
Like an earthquake [2x]
You and I are honesty
A sedated type-A intensity
When it's me against you
And it's you against me
It's so hard to breathe
Say when you're ready to escape
I'll be your shelter from the rain
I'll pull you under me and we can make the ground shake
Like an earthquake
Say when you're ready to escape
I'll be your shelter from the rain
I'll pull you under me and we can make the ground shake
Like an earthquake [4x]
Show us what you got when the motherf- beat drops
Make the, make the ground shake
