"Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster the People means so much more than what you would take it for. The band members have told media that it is a song to say f-you to all those kids who are mean. They used this song to get inside the head of a kid that is going crazy with anger for all these kids. Having these 'pumped up kicks' made you "popular" and some people couldn't stand it. Therefore, the band got inside the killer's head and saw why he wanted revenge on these other kids. The 'running faster than my bullet' was supposed to be a metaphor, but it ended up being very literal in the song.
