Running From Yourself Quotes Demi Lovato Its Easy to Feel Like You Dont Need Help
Demi Lovato doesn't just have powerhouse pipes—she also has the wisdom of a woman who's been through a lot in just three decades on earth.And she's not afraid of sharing that wisdom with the world,which makes her a prolific and deeply personal songwriter.
Long after starring in Disney's Sonny With a Chance and Camp Rock, Lovato has compared her more revealing lyrics to "taking [her] top off." In 2013, she told MTV News of her album Demi, "There are songs that are pretty self-explanatory on this album and when I played those songs in front of other people I almost felt, like, naked. There were several times I had to leave the room."
The singer, who's openly struggled with bulimia, bipolar disorder and addiction, has penned lyrics about everything from relapsing (the chilling, heartbreaking "Sober") to abandonment issues ("Father," "Daddy Issues") to her love life ("Yes," "Ruin the Friendship" and countless others). She delivers empowerment anthems like "Confident" and "Sorry Not Sorry," in which she relishes in her braggadocio swagger, as well as incredibly vulnerable ballads, including "Warrior" and "Nightingale."
It's hard to narrow down Lovato's most powerful lyrics, especially when you factor in that she began writing songs when she was just a teen. From her prodigy years through adulthood, here are some particularly powerful lines from Lovato to celebrate her 30th birthday and the release of her latest album, Holy Fvck.
