Just A Young Gun With A Quick Fuse Lyrics

Imagine Dragons 34 views
The song talks about a young individual who aspires to make his way through the world starting from scratch and living by his rules. He wants to do what no other people would do and follow his own principles and be himself, rather than follow common rules, obey commands of others and adhere to the established paths. At school, people laugh at his aspirations and consider him to be an ordinary boy. But despite all this negativity around, he persists in pursuing his dreams and becomes successful, making his way to the stage and seeing how the people who were laughing at him before now sit in the audience watching his triumph. “Thunder” and “Lightning” are the symbols of his energy and success.

Just A Young Gun With A Quick Fuse Song Lyrics

Just a young gun with a quick fuse
I was uptight, wanna let loose
I was dreaming of bigger things and
Wanna leave my own life behind
Not a "Yes, sir," not a follower
Fit the box, fit the mold, have a seat
In the foyer, take a number
I was lightning before the thunder

Thunder, thunder, thunder, thun—
Thunder, th-th-thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thun—
Thunder, th-th-thunder, thunder

Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder, thunder
Thunder

Kids were laughin' in my classes
While I was schemin' for the masses
Who do you think you are?
Dreaming 'bout being a big star
They say, "You're basic," they say, "You're easy"
You're always riding in the backseat
Now I'm smilin' from the stage while
You were clappin' in the nosebleeds

Thunder, thunder, thunder, thun—
Thunder, th-th-thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thun—
Thunder, th-th-thunder, thunder

Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder

Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder

Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder (Never give up, never give up)
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder (Never give up on your dreams)
Thunder, feel the thunder (Never give up, never give up)
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder (Never give up on your dreams)

Thunder, thunder, thun—
Thunder, th-th-thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thun—
Thunder, th-th-thunder, thunder (Woo)
Thunder, thunder, thun—
Thunder, th-th-thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thun—
Thunder, th-th-thunder, thunder
