Wildfire
Mia Vaile & James Mercy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They think I've got no reason
To give myself a right to share what I believe in
Oh oh
They say I've got an issue
Always on the edge 'cause I don't trust people
But I don't need your word on what I'm into
Forbidden, if I make it mainstream
And I don't need to wake up to your whisper
Forget it with some liquor
Damned, if I ever have dreams
But I've got that wildfire, hey
And I've got that wildfire
And I've got that wildfire, hey
Oh oh
They're always on a mission
To keep me on the run, can't share my own opinion
Oh oh
Bad sense of intuition
That didn't get me far, but this time I choose to listen
'Cause I don't need your say on what I live for
This is what I live for
Baby, don't you know I run free
So, what if I don't got a lavish image
And never finish college?
No riches ever phased me
But I've got that wildfire, hey
And I've got that wildfire
And I've got that wildfire, hey
The lyrics to Mia Vaile & James Mercy's song, "Wildfire," can be interpreted as a rejection of societal pressure to conform and a celebration of individuality. The singer is aware that others view them as someone who does not belong or fit in because they do not trust people and have their own beliefs. Despite this, the singer asserts that their opinions and identity are valid and won't conform to fitting into a specific image or set of expectations.
The line "And I don't need to wake up to your whisper, forget it with some liquor" suggests that the singer is aware of people talking behind their back and criticizing them, but chooses to ignore it and numb the pain with alcohol. The repeated use of the word "wildfire" reinforces the idea that the singer's identity and beliefs spread quickly and passionately, much like a wildfire.
In the second verse, the singer acknowledges that others have tried to keep them from expressing their own opinions, but the singer chooses to listen to their own intuition instead. The line "this is what I live for" shows that the singer is committed to their beliefs and will not compromise or change themselves to please others.
Overall, the lyrics of "Wildfire" encourage listeners to embrace their uniqueness and trust themselves, even if others may try to hold them back or make them feel unworthy.
