The song Firework by Katy Perry encourages the listener to have confidence and believe in themselves. It uses metaphors comparing the listener to a firework, plastic bag, and house of cards to convey feelings of uncertainty and lack of direction. The lyrics suggest that within every person is an inner light and spark that just needs to be ignited so their true self can shine brightly for all to see on the Fourth of July.

Firework by: Katy Perry

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag


Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin a picture of a paper
Like a house of cards, one blow from cavin' in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams, but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you?
'Cause there's a spark in you someone with a spark

You just gotta ignite the light


And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July a picture of the fourth of july

'Cause baby, you're a firework


Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst a burst of color

Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"


You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

You don't have to feel like a waste of space


You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow a rainbow in the sky
Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light


And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July a picture of the fourth of july

'Cause baby, you're a firework


Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst a burst of color
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

Boom, boom, boom


Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon a picture of the moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through

'Cause baby, you're a firework


Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst a burst of color
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

Boom, boom, boom


Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon a picture of the moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon a picture of the moon
