"Strong in the Real Way" is a song written by Rebecca Sugar. It was first sung by Pearl, and later by Steven to help himself coach Greg, Sadie, and Lars in the episode "Coach Steven". The song is about Steven idolizing Sugilite, and the song covers how Pearl and Steven have different definitions of strength.
The song is available to stream on Spotify.
Lyrics
[Pearl] Why do you have to look up to her Aside from in a literal sense? Don't you know that a power that big Comes with a bigger expense? And can't you see that she's out of control And overzealous? I'm telling you for your own good, And not because I'm- I can show you how to be strong... In the real way. And I know that we can be strong In the real way. And I want to inspire you I want to be your rock And when I talk It lights a fire in you |
[Steven] I can show you how to be strong... In the real way And I know that we can be strong In the real way |
[Steven and Pearl] And I want to inspire you I want to be your rock And when I talk It lights a fire in you I want to inspire you I want to be your rock And when I talk It lights a fire in you |
