Life is a Runway is a song featured in the My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks animated encore short of the same name, which leads up to the third Equestria Girls film installment, Friendship Games.[8] It is performed by Rarity. The short and song were uploaded to the Hasbro Studios Shorts YouTube channel on April 1, 2015[9] before being made private and separately reuploaded on April 3, 2015,[10] both times alongside My Past is Not Today and Friendship Through the Ages; Hasbro's My Little Pony Facebook page uploaded on April 21, 2015,[11] and the Hasbro Studios Shorts YouTube channel uploaded a sing-along on May 20, 2015.[12] The short includes prominent appearances by human Lyra Heartstrings, Sweetie Drops, Roseluck, Cheerilee, Amethyst Star, and Derpy—notably, all but the last of whom comprise a wave of dolls[13]—and also includes appearances by human Bulk Biceps and many unnamed characters and silhouettes of Flash Sentry and some characters.

It serves as the third track on the soundtrack album My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Friendship Games - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, under the title Life Is a Runway.

Animated short synopsis[]

The short begins with Rarity in her workspace designing some fashions. In a fantasy sequence, Rarity struts down the street wearing her Rainbooms outfit. She gives magical makeovers to Derpy, Cheerilee, Lyra and Sweetie Drops. In the next fantasy sequence, they are all strutting down a runway joined by Roseluck and Amethyst Star. The short returns to reality as Rarity finishes sewing her fashions.

Lyrics[]

Rarity and friends pose on runway EG2
[Rarity]
Life is a runway (runway)
Listen, here's what it's all about
I tell you, life is a runway (runway)
Time to bring what's on the inside out
Into the light
Into the light
Life is a runway
When you see it my way
Take all the good inside
Make it beautiful
Fashion is a way to start
Showing what's in your heart
Call it superficial
I call it irrefutable
Oh-oh, oh wha-oh
Oh-oh, oh wha-oh
Oh-oh, oh wha-oh
Life is a runway
You can be the girl
That you want to be
With a little love
And some accessories (life is a runway)
Don't be scared to show you have
Personal style
Just go do your thing
You'll make everyone smile (life is a runway)
You can be the girl
That you want to be
With a little love
And some accessories (life is a runway)
Don't be scared to show you have
Personal style
Just go do your thing
You'll make everyone smile (life is a runway)
Life is a runway (runway)
I'll show you what it's all about
I tell you, life is a runway (runway)
Time to bring what's on the inside out
Into the light
Into the light
Into the light
Into the light
Into the light
