Glow
Yoyo Sham Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
so gently only seen by those who care to see
do you see, that you shine
like a kitten's eye
or a poem only keen to those who rhyme
when you just be, you just glow
it just isn't in what you do, or what you own
if only you knew, how much you have done
neon lights, get just a little bright
when the world gets loud
drowning out the tune you're humming now
you may think twice, may even want to fight
you may not always find the strength
to get it right
if only you knew, how much you have done
by being yourself, some battles are won
yes, everything you touch turns into gold
yet you won't let it show, cause
you don't even know
The lyrics to Yoyo Sham's song "Glow" convey a message about the hidden beauty and worthiness of an individual. The opening lines suggest that the person being addressed possesses an inner glow that is only visible to those who truly care to see it. This glow is compared to the gentle and subtle radiance of a kitten's eye or a poem that is appreciated by individuals who understand its underlying meaning. The lyrics emphasize that this glow exists when the person is simply being themselves, highlighting the idea that it is not based on external achievements or possessions.
The chorus repeats the notion that the person being sung to doesn't fully comprehend the magnitude of their impact on others. Their genuine self, without even realizing it, has the power to win battles. The lyrics draw a comparison between the person's glow and neon lights, suggesting that in a noisy and overwhelming world, their light may dim or go unnoticed. It acknowledges the possibility that they might hesitate or even want to fight against their own worthiness, and that sometimes finding the strength to embrace their true selves can be challenging.
The final lines speak directly to the person, acknowledging that everything they touch turns into gold, metaphorically representing their ability to bring value to everything they engage with. However, despite this inherent brilliance, they remain unaware of their own worth and fail to let it shine.
Overall, the lyrics of "Glow" emphasize the importance of recognizing and embracing one's true self, as well as the powerful impact that can have on the world and those around them.

還記得剛踏入這份工作時，很在意同事間的眼光和言語，有時候遇到不對盤的人，總會自卑的先質疑自己是不是真如他人眼中的糟糕。那時，是這首歌陪伴我度過上班前對未知的焦慮。時間過去，如今我已不再輕易受人影響，大多時候都樂在工作，但也就要和這快樂無憂的工作道別了。以後到了其他領域、從零開始，或許有一天又會回來向這首歌借點力量，想先和未來的自己説聲加油，別怕：）
do you know that you glow.
