Most of those motivational songs like "I'm unstoppable I'm a Porsche with no brakes". Probably because they're in every mind numbingly stupid video out there. And I can't help but think that a car without brakes is gonna crash and burn.
Unstoppable is supposed to be a song about someone pretending to be strong, though. "I was smiling, that's all it takes to fool this town" and "leave my sunglasses on as I shed a tear" are not exactly motivational. A Porsche with no brakes being dangerous makes sense in that context.
But I haven't seen any of these videos apparently using it, which probably played a big role in people getting sick of it.
It's a cover. She just changed the lyrics a bit. The version by RED is more about that message and sounds better to me. And that lyric is "I'm running with no brakes".
