Titanium Lyrics
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, I am titanium, I am titanium, I am titanium
Cut me down
But it's you who has 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
Stone-hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone-hard, thus 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
I am titanium
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
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, I am titanium
But it's you who has further to fall
Ghost town, haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud not saying much
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
Firing at the ones who run
Stone-hard, thus bulletproof glass
You shoot me down but I won't fall, I am titanium
I am titanium

Pretty simple I think. I laugh sometimes at the crazy meaning suggestions that people come up with on here. Usually a song can mean whatever you want or need it to mean for yourself. In this case I think it is a concrete black and white meaning. Its simply about being stronger than those around you, whether it is a bully, ex, parents, etc. If someone is trying to cut you down, then you have to be harder than that, Titanium. Pretty straight forward I believe.
@dsbarnard0 In my opinion, I think that Titanium is about not falling down even if you feel scared, but about fighting through tough times without giving up.

Its finally here...when you watch the video, you see a child who is special. We all know what many feel about special children: they are generally afraid, scared and withdrawn. This child must create an inner strength in order to survive. No matter the obstacles, keep going, life is hard, but only if you let it beat you down. This song is an inspiration to those in need such as: developmentally delayed, Autism, Down Sydrome, ADHD, Cerebral palsy and more...even when this song is replaced by new songs, this one will remain one of my favorite. The power of both Guetta's beats and Sia's voice bring the lyrics alive with meaning. Thank you both. Yes, I live with Autism.

Any kid who is different could fit into this, including those mentioned above: only children, children from abusive homes, children who move a lot, or even those considered child prodigies.

to me, this song tells a story of overcoming everything that life throws at you, and coming up on top in the end. personal meaning to me... i suppose.
I just love it. I see this as a song about not letting other people getting in the way of what you want, and just going for it. A real self esteem booster of a song.
She is saying I am tough, I can take it, BRING IT....I won't let you tear me down no matter how hard you try. In fact, I will rise above it. Very empowering...I love it!
I think this song means people can say what they like, but the writer doesn't care and won't take the comments to heart. I love this song. Epic beat from Guetta and awesome lyrics. <3 x
I think David is Ricochet what u gonna say it doesn't pierce through him anyway he will write anything lol.

I think this song is about building a protective shell around yourself and refusing to fall down. I think this song was meant to try to ignore the desperation and fear you are feeling and daring someone to bring it on.
"I'm bulletproof nothing to lose' You feel as if you have nothing left to lose, and are scared to keep moving on, but you have made yourself bullet proof in your mind.
I think the meaning of this is people can say or do what they like but don't stand for it you are better then that. You are stronger then that and nothing can stand in the way of what you want.
This song, at least to me, is about refusing to admit defeat, grinding and pounding your way to the top despite the fears, second guesses and self doubt that one may have.
i hear firing at the ones who run (not rise) and but its you who has further to fall (not but is you who had offered to fall)
I posted it as run, not rise. I'm pretty sure what I posted doesn't matter because the (wrong) lyrics were grabbed from LyricFind. No idea why.
