DEAD OR ALIVE
Spencer Hill ft. Toni Nielson Lyrics

The opening verse of "Dead Or Alive" by Spencer Hill ft. Toni Nielson is someone boldly asserting their unflinching strength and resilience against their enemies. They describe themselves as "a shot in the dark," someone who is not easily penetrable, and therefore their opponents will surely miss when they try to strike them. The singer assumes that her enemies have ill intentions towards her ("try to aim for my heart"), but that they will not be able to fulfill them. They go on to describe themselves as a formidable foe, someone who is not a "walk in the park," and impervious to attackers' attempts to take them down.

In the second verse, the singer retells the same message in a different way. They describe themselves as a person with a price tag on their head, but they refuse to be taken down by anyone who comes after them. They reiterate that they will never let anyone take their heart - a metaphor for their courage and fighting spirit. The songwriter then likens themselves to a treasure with an 'X' marking the spot, again emphasizing that they are hard to conquer. They seem to know that their opposition includes people they perceive to be undercover cops or spies, but they are not worried and proclaim that they still come out on top.

Overall, "Dead Or Alive" is a song about standing firmly in one's ground against any negative forces that may be working against them. The lyrics are written in a style reminiscent of old western films where the singer is always wanted dead or alive- to be brought to justice, but the twist here is that the singer is not going to be caught or taken down - they are going to fight.
