show 'em what you're worth

If you have been reading my blog it isn't a shock to hear that I have yet again found a source of inspiration and encouragement.  This week it's Katy Perry's new single Firework. The video for Firework has was just released last week and the cool thing is that Katy invited 250 kids "with a spark" to be part of the filming of this video in Budapest.  Check out this video about the filming and purpose of Firework.

Firework has such a positive message and whether you like Katy Perry or not the lyrics really are stellar.  I hope that you will take the time to read them while listening to the song and be encouraged:).

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin like a house of cards
One blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep six feet under scream
But no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you?
'Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite
The light and let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on show 'emwhat you're worth
Make em go oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on; let your colors burst
Make em go oh, oh, oh
You're gonna leave em fallin down oh oh

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original you cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to a perfect road
Like a lightning bolt your heart will blow
And when it's time you'll know
You just gotta ignite
The light and let it shine
Just own the night
Like the 4th of July

Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on show em what you're worth
Make 'em go oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky ey ey
Baby, you're a firework
Come on; let your colors burst
Make 'em go oh, oh, oh
You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down oh oh

Bridge
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to through, ooh, ooh

Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on show emwhatyou're worth
Make 'em go oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky ey ey
You're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go oh, oh, oh
You're gonna leave 'em fallin down oh oh

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
