Paper Planes
S.I.R. Remixes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm gonna take you out
From paper planes, to hand grenades
I'm gonna take you out
Try and change me
Rearrange me
You're so crazy in the head (in the head)
To the vultures'
But I won't be left for dead (left for dead)
You make me wanna go harder
Go a little bit larger
My fire starter
I'm gasoline
You make me feel so jaded
You're overrated
Burn up the pages
I'm kerosene
Money can talk but words are cheap
So I'm gonna cash in, cash out
I'm taking my dollars and my dreams
So I'm gonna cash in, cash out
From paper planes, to hand grenades
I'm gonna take you out
From paper planes, to hand grenades
I'm gonna take you out
Can't contain me
In the mazes
I'll be breaking, through the seams
Leaving traces
That I'm making
Folding paper, into wings
Money can talk but words are cheap
So I'm gonna cash in, cash out
I'm taking my dollars and my dreams
So I'm gonna cash in, cash out
(Show me what you get)
(Are you ready?)
(One, two, one, two, let's go!)
I'm not worried about a thing
No dollar bill is worth the price you pay
Don't need your money
I don't need the fame
So I cash in, cash out
Cash in, cash out
Give me your car and your diamond ring
I'll burn it all to see the look on your face
What's it cost and is it worth the pain?
No I cash in, cash out
Cash in, cash out
Na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na
Cash in, cash out
Cash in, cash out
Money can talk but the words are cheap
So I'm gonna cash in, cash out
I'm taking my dollars and my dreams
So I'm gonna cash in, cash out
Paper planes and hand grenades
Paper planes and hand grenades
From paper planes, to hand grenades
I'm gonna take you out
From paper planes, to hand grenades
I'm gonna take you out
The lyrics to S.I.R. Remixes's song "Paper Planes" are about a rebellious streak and the desire to pursue one's goals while rejecting societal pressures to conform. The opening lines, "From paper planes, to hand grenades / I'm gonna take you out," set the tone for the rest of the song - the singer is willing to fight and destroy in order to achieve their aims. The verses that follow portray a sense of defiance and strength, with lines like "You're so crazy in the head / Pull me closer to the vultures' / But I won't be left for dead," and "My fire starter / I'm gasoline / You make me feel so jaded / You're overrated / Burn up the pages / I'm kerosene."
The chorus of the song reiterates the themes of defiance and the singer's unwillingness to be constrained by societal norms: "Money can talk but words are cheap / So I'm gonna cash in, cash out / I'm taking my dollars and my dreams / So I'm gonna cash in, cash out." The second verse features some more imagery related to the idea of flying away from one's problems, with lines like "Can't contain me / In the mazes / I'll be breaking, through the seams / Leaving traces / That I'm making / Folding paper, into wings."
Overall, the song is a powerful anthem about breaking free from constraints and pursuing one’s dreams, even if it means taking unconventional and potentially destructive paths.

Paper planes and hand grenades
Imagery of weapons further emphasizes the desire to defeat the opponent
