Alicia Keys: Girl On Fire Meaning

Song Released: 2012

Featuring: Nicki Minaj

Girl On Fire Lyrics

She's just a girl, and she's on fire
Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway
She's living in a world, and it's on fire
Filled with catastrophe, but she knows she can fly away

Oh, she got both feet on the ground
And she's burning it...

   Sounds to me like she sold her soul and now she's braggin bout it.... Just check out her whole album's theme is fire with every track on it somehow revolving tound that consept... I used to consider myself one of her biggest fans; buying all her albums and collecting posters and memorizing everything bout her, but now ii'm seriously reconsidering being a fan of any artist really... I don't wana go to hell coz of the music these people sell. Sounds weird but that's what's gonna happen if we aren't careful

   Its about Marilyn Monroe. She's just a girl and she's on fire. Its referring to her beauty.

   She is a woman in America that has children and her parents are dying so she learns to help people, be more loving, and cope with her life filled catastrophe. She rises to be this extraordinary woman who was shy at first but then she opens up to the world.

   This song is about the Sun. A.Keys and other artist belong to a religion that worships nature(the sun, moon, astrology and other false gods). Its a metaphor using a girl but really its the sun she is singing about.

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

   You would want you to think that this is a song about a girl who is real doing great things in life. But this song is about a girl living in hell.

   Nailed it illuminati. Most of these artists will try and riddle us, confuse us and then you ask later why cant I get the darn song out of my head? Its so far fetched to think Alicia sold her soul but with lyrics like that it leaves no question in my mind. People will do anything for fame and money. Sad but so true.
