VS 1
Back against the wall, no giving up
So empty, wasn’t strong enough
Doubt had overcome and I was feeling lost
Or so I
thought (it was over)
Seemed every time I lost I would learn
Started up a flame, with no choice but to burn
I’ll show you what I’m made of
Won’t run out of time
I know where I came from
A fire ignites
I’m drawing a line to show you what I’m made of
Show you what I’m made of
VS 2
I’m an Army built of only one
Battle ready warrior, I’ve just begun
You can try your hardest, I’ve already won
You know it can’t be taught
Cause I started up a flame, with no choice but to burn
A desire to live every moment that I earn
CHORUS
Bridge:
You know you can’t hold down
No, you can’t hold me down
Can’t hold me down
Picture every hurdle holding you back from your highest ambition. The hurdle that weighs you down and makes you want to surrender to all of the hardships in your life. Now imagine the firestorm that drives you to bound over those hurdles. The powder keg that, when sparked, explodes in a display of passion, soul, and creativity.
Whatever the firestorm is for you, Lauren Light’s Show You What I’m Made Of will bring you to your feet and motivate you to slay every giant in your life. It’s heavy melody, ambient tone, and Light’s powerful vocal strength tap into any listener’s primal desire to conquer their obstacles.
You can’t afford to miss this fervently crafted piece. And you won’t be able to resist listening to it a second, third, and hundredth time afterward.
