This song is so beautiful. The tension that Bruno Mar adds before and between the layers of intensity makes it truly pop. Everyone fights their fights, but it takes true passion to get past it and make it to the top. Win your battles and get where you want to be. You don't need hate or drugs. You need to have real feeling for what you're doing. |

I really like your interpretation. Some of those little facts (like the P Diddy thing) I wasn't aware of. I think you kind of missed a part of it, though - atleast in my opinion. Both rappers use many drug references. I think a big message that they're conveying is getting out of that and bringing it up to be where they are now. I think that kind of ties to lighters into it. Like, instead of lighting drugs, let's use our lighters to make light for everyone else in the dark. As for Bruno Mars, I think he's just kind of there to make it a little softer. The intensity of the lyrics here is almost over the top. Adding Bruno Mars in is like putting a little pillow down for your head instead of laying it on a hard surface. He's rpetty much just saying, "We've finally got things how they need to be. Thank God. Now let's see those lighters and make thing even more bright." That's how I see it, anyway. |

I think it's kind of a duel meaning. @yourmomNem , the lighters at concerts thing is definitely refernced. However, the song is kind of about tossing drugs away to get to where you relly want to be. So I think put you're lighters up in the sky is kind of like saying, "Use your lighters for light, not drugs." You know? |
