Lyrics: Michael B., di Lorenzo & Pete Smith

Verse 1
You're part of some heaven, but you're feeling like hell.
An interesting ideal for someone to sell.
You're high on your profile (but you) wanna lay low.
You're living the lifestyle right here on public show,
In control, so smile as they come and go and¡­

Chorus
Everybody loves you
For every single step you take
And everybody knows you
For every single word you say
And you know that it is true
No one knows you better than you do

Verse 2
One look in the mirror (and tell me) what do you see?
A person quite ordinary that you used to be
A little more make-up will help to erase
Enough of the memories you need to play the game,
All the same, everyday in your own way and¡­

Chorus

Bridge
Could you throw a shadow?
(There's a dark side to us all)
Would we see you cry?
(No, I've never stopped and tried)
Surrounded by good intentions
(But you're still misunderstood)
Remember who you'll leave behind¡­





Chorus

Overall Meaning

The song "Everybody Loves You" by Sasha explores the challenges of fame and the pressure to maintain a perfect image in the public eye. The first verse starts with the contrast between how the person feels and how they are perceived, highlighting the disconnection between their public persona and their internal state. The line "you're living the lifestyle right here on public show" emphasizes the idea that their life is constantly on display, leaving little room for privacy or personal boundaries. The chorus emphasizes that despite the person's success and widespread acceptance, nobody knows them better than themselves.


The second verse delves deeper into the theme of self-image and the lengths the person goes to maintain their public persona. They use make-up to cover up their flaws and erase memories that don't fit into their ideal image, further emphasizing the pressure to conform to expectations. The bridge explores the dark side of fame and how it can lead to a lack of empathy from others, with the person surrounded by good intentions but still feeling misunderstood. The final chorus reinforces the idea that despite the person's fame and acceptance, they are still the only ones who truly know themselves.


Overall, "Everybody Loves You" is a poignant commentary on the challenges of fame and the pressure to maintain a perfect public image. It highlights the importance of self-care and staying true to oneself, even in the face of external pressure and scrutiny.
