Katy Perry's Firework is a song that holds true value to many individuals around the world, not only for a good belting-out moment but for the ones that cannot speak up when needed, and doing what makes them happy. These factors add up to pro create this mass of being who you are and living life to the fullest. Perry is using a comparison to a firework to truly demonstrate her points of worth, self expression, and confidence. She has found a way to truly inspire many globally with lyrics such as "Baby your a firework, come on show em what your worth." and "you don't have to feel like a wasted space, your original, cannot be replaced." Her words speak out showing just how important each individual is.
Even with the connotative meaning being straight forward, Perry is still able to add some level of metaphor to put her views in perspective. She has constructed a way to show the world that they can be unique in expressing individualism, prove self worth, and even in the end provide these listeners with a newfound confidence. Perry has demonstrated her lyrics with her flawless music video to compliment this song while also providing many scenarios to which one would also experience in their own lives. With the lyrics "Own the night, Like the fourth of July" is just a way of saying, be the star of your show, and make it last; because when all else fails, the show must go on.
