It serves as the third track on the soundtrack album My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Legend of Everfree - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.

Production[]
The song was adapted into chapter 14 of the Legend of Everfree novelization, published twenty-five days before the movie's premiere, but features different lyrics.

Film version[]
"No more holding back, just let it out!"
- [Sunset Shimmer]
- So you have magic
- And it's not that great
- But when it found you
- You know it was fate
- And it might seem scary now
- But it can be wonderful, too
- So how about we embrace the magic
- And make the magic part of you?
- You take a little dash of magic
- And you let it ignite
- Mix things up a little bit
- And it might start to go right
- In just five seconds flat
- How the story has changed
- All 'cause now you've embraced the magic
- And it just got better in every way
- I say embrace the magic
- No more holding back, just let it out
- If you can take the magic
- And learn a little more what it can do
- Once the magic is part of you
- What's standing in your way
- That you can't move today?
- You've got the strength in you
- To make your dreams come true
- No need to shield yourself
- From the magic that can help
- Protect from any harm that might come
- So you have magic
- And it's not that great
- But when it found you
- You know it was fate
- So if you listen close
- You might make a new friend
- And together we can make it!
- I say embrace the magic
- No more holding back, just let it out
- If you can take the magic
- And learn a little more what it can do
- Once the magic is part of you
- Once the magic is part of you
- Once the magic is part of you
- Once the magic is part of you
Book version[]
- [Sunset Shimmer]
- So you have magic, and it's not that great.
- But when it found you, it was fate.
- It's scary but it's wonderful, too.
- Just keep at it, and you'll agree.
- Embrace the magic, then you'll see.
- It's better once you know it's part of you.
- Oh, to have your energy!
- How amazing life would be!
- You can turn the everyday into a blast.
- Super speed, it's so much fun.
- In five seconds, you'll get it done.
- You really know what it means to be fast.
- If you embrace the magic,
- There is so much you can do.
- If you just embrace the magic,
- You'll find a better you.
- Super strength, what's there to say?
- There's nothing standing in your way.
- Moving things with ease? It must be swell!
- Crystal shield, it's more than bling.
- Protect your friends from anything.
- Even if that something is themselves!
- Animals, they're mysteries.
- To talk to them is quite a feat.
- I'm sure they have interestings to say.
- As for me, I've got the touch.
- Close to someone, I can learn so much.
- It's a power I hope never goes away.
- If you just embrace the magic,
- There is so much you can do!
