Cover art for Tiptoe lyrics by Imagine Dragons

To me, this is about being underestimated.

"Tiptoe higher", I think, is saying take your steps even lighter, because then they won't hear you coming. It's him saying, fine, underestimate me all you want, because I'll come up from behind and I'll rise to the top.

Pretty inspiring to me. I listen to it to jazz me up before I take a big test.
