Titanium
Sabrina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You shout it out
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud not saying much
I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium

Cut me down
But it's you who have further to fall
Ghost town, haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium

Stone-hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone-hard, those bulletproof glass

You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall




I am titanium
I am titanium

Overall Meaning

The song "Titanium" by Sabrina is an empowering anthem that encourages resilience in the face of adversity. The lyrics begin with the singer acknowledging that she is being criticized by others but feels as though their words are not impacting her. Their words are referred to as bullets, which ricochet off her as she stands tall. She's been shot down before but has managed to rise again, like titanium, which is a strong and resilient metal. The chorus is a proclamation of her invincibility, as the lyrics repeat "you shoot me down, but I won't fall, I am titanium."


In the second verse, the singer is again faced with criticism, but she is unbothered. She tells her critic that they have "further to fall" than she does. This verse also references the idea of a "ghost town, haunted love" which could suggest a relationship that once held significance, but is now empty and lifeless. Once again, she repeats that she speaks loudly but doesn't say much, as she doesn't allow the words of others to impact her.


Overall, the song is a powerful message of self-empowerment and resilience, using the metaphor of titanium to represent the strength that comes from overcoming challenges.
