Stick to My Guns
Embracing Individuality: Unveiling the Depth of 'Stick to My Guns' Meaning
Lyrics
It's easy to be cool if I'm locked in the shade
Being cool is effortless when avoiding challenges or difficult situations.
shoot from the hips until my ankles break
Acting confidently or impulsively until facing severe consequences.
take it from me I used to know how to read
Reflecting on a past ability to understand and interpret things.
I covered my wounds in your gasoline.
Using someone else's emotional pain or issues as a distraction or coping mechanism.
i'm made out of stone
Describing oneself as emotionally resilient, like stone.
but the kind you can't hold
Being emotionally distant or unapproachable.
a pleasure to see
Enjoyable to observe, but not easily accessible or understood.
but hard to find like gold
Comparing rarity to gold, indicating uniqueness and value.
I stick my guns
Staying true to personal beliefs and principles.
that's why I have these enemies
Having adversaries or opposition due to holding one's ground.
i'm over the hills
Being distant or removed from challenges, possibly metaphorically.
and far away, you can't see
Physically or metaphorically far away, out of sight.
It's easy to be cool if i'm locked in the shade
Reiteration of the ease of being cool when avoiding difficulties.
shoot from the hips until my ankles break
Repeating the theme of impulsive actions leading to significant consequences.
take it from me I used to know how to read
Reaffirming the loss of a previously possessed skill or knowledge.
I covered my wounds in your gasoline.
Repeating the use of someone else's pain as a distraction or coping mechanism.
i'm made out of stone
Reiteration of emotional resilience or hardness, like stone.
but the kind you can't hold
Reemphasizing emotional inaccessibility or unapproachability.
a pleasure to see
Reiterating being enjoyable to see but challenging to understand or connect with.
but hard to find like gold
Reiterating the rarity and value, likening oneself to gold.
I stick my guns
Reaffirming the commitment to personal principles and beliefs.
that's why I have these enemies
Reiterating the presence of adversaries due to standing firm.
i'm over the hills
Reiterating being distant or removed from challenges.
and far away, you can't see
Reiterating physical or metaphorical distance, being unseen.
