Half of me wanted to make an uplifting, fun song about supporting a character that doesn’t get enough love; half of me wanted an excuse to build a song around the phrase “You’re my favorite princess, Spike”.

Lyrics:
No pony would believe you
Even if you tell the truth, and
No pony seems to think that you should
Do the things you do
You’ll be at their service, you’re
Loyal through and through, but
No pony wants to recognize
What’s so special about you

You took on several nations
Just to let your princess sleep
You jumped off of a castle
And you saved a whole city

You don’t have to make
Everything that you do so tough
Know that in your heart that you are
Much more than enough
Keep going on your way
Keep going on your way
And no matter what you do just know that
Spike – I’m cheering for you

We all want to seem special
In the eyes of those we love
And no pony will work harder
Than you do to rise above
So keep on taking hot baths
And befriending new changelings
Your friends will love who you are, Spike
So don’t you change a thing

You fought a horde of dragons
To protect your pony friends
You threw yourself in danger
And saved the empire again

You don’t have to make
Everything that you do so tough
Know that in your heart that you are
Much more than enough
Keep going on your way
Keep going on your way
And no matter what you do just know that
Spike – I’m cheering for you

Luna has her issues
Cadence plays her part
Celestia is useless
Just like Flurry Heart

While Twilight maybe smarter
You’re still the one I like
You’re my favorite princess
Princess Spike

You don’t have to make
Everything that you do so tough
Know that in your heart that you are
Much more than enough
Keep going on your way
Keep going on your way
And no matter what you do just know that
Spike – I’m cheering for you
