It serves as the ninth track on the soundtrack album My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Friendship Games - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.

Lyrics[]

Shadowbolts push Twilight into a corner EG3
[Principal Cinch]
I realize that you've always been an outcast
It's not everyone at school who likes to think
To find a student that's like you
I've had one or maybe two
But the good ones disappear before I blink
[Shadowbolts]
(Oh, wuh-oh-wuh, oh
Oh, wuh-oh-wuh)
[Principal Cinch]
Now, I understand you have your reservations (oh-wuh)
It's hard to have a brain as large as yours (oh-oh-oh-oh)
But if we don't win these games
Well, I think I've made it plain
What will happen if we have the losing scores!
[Shadowbolts]
(Oh, wuh-oh-wuh, oh
Oh, wuh-oh-wuh)
Unleash the magic, unleash the magic
If we lose, then you're to blame (ah, ah-ah-ah)
They all have used it, maybe abused it (ah-ah-ah)
So then why can't we do the same?
(Oh, wuh-oh-wuh, oh
Oh, wuh-oh-wuh)
[Principal Cinch]
Call it power, call it magic
If we lose, it will be tragic
More important is the knowledge we'll have lost (oh-oh-oh-oh)
A chance like this won't come again
You'll regret not giving in
Isn't understanding magic worth the cost?
[Shadowbolts]
(Oh, wuh-oh-wuh, oh
Oh, wuh-oh-wuh)
Unleash the magic, unleash the magic
We're not friends here after all
Our only interest in this business (ah-ah-ah)
Is seeing Canterlot High School fall
(Oh, wuh-oh-wuh, oh
Oh, wuh-oh-wuh, oh)
[Principal Cinch]
What I'm suggesting's very simple
And since it's win-win on all scores
You only want to learn about the
Magic that you have stored
And as for me and all the others
We only want what we deserve
That our school will clinch the win
And my...
[Principal Cinch and Shadowbolts]
...legacy will endure
Unleash the magic, unleash the magic
If we lose, then it's a crime
But we can win it if you begin it (ah-ah-ah)
It's up to you to not fail this time
[Male Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic now
[Female Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic now
[Sci-Twi]
Imagine all I'll learn by setting it free
Vice Principal Luna: If both teams are ready...
[Male Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic now
[Female Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic now
[Sci-Twi]
And now winning these games depends on me
[Male Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic now
[Female Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic now
And what doors might open if I try to use it
Dean Cadance: ...the last event of the Friendship Games begins...
[Male Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic now
[Female Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic now
[Sci-Twi]
But the magic's what I really want to see
Puppy Spike: Twilight, no!
[Male Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic now
[Shadowbolts]
Unleash the magic, free the magic...
Unleash the magic, free the magic...
[All]
Now!
