One of the themes that Yang's songs like to bring up is stuff having to do with fire and burning. Another is "gold".


 * Red Like Roses: "Yellow beauty burns gold"


 * I Burn: Yang's first theme song.


 * Gold: Literally a song about Yang trying to be the best big sister she can for Ruby after Summer disappeared or died. ("Like the smell of a rose on a summer's day, I will be there to take all your fears away.")

As for evidence that Armed and Ready is about Yang and not Ruby... well... it's littered with references to Yang, to be honest.

"The hidden eyes that I can feel there" = Adam. His eyes are hidden behind a mask.

"I am the golden one who burns just like the sun" = Yang's themes of "gold" and "burn" again, plus it kinda reminds me of the lyrics from I Burn that go "You're standing too close to a flame that's burning hotter than the sun in the middle of July."

"Call me sweetheart and I'll tear you apart. Just call me sir." = Reference to the Yellow Trailer

"Try to resist once you meet my new fist" = Her new metal arm

"And bring my strawberry sunrise" = Another reference to the Yellow Trailer

And then there's what a lot of people pointed out: The song's title is a pun. Armed and Ready. Heheh.

To be honest, the first time I heard the song, which was during the finale credits while I was waiting for the after credits scene, I didn't quite catch a lot of the lyrics, but I caught on that it was about Yang when I heard "strawberry sunrise".
