When Harry Styles croons, he does so with a cryptic charm that leaves us all in a tizzy. "Lights Up" is no exception. This tune is an anthem of self-discovery and acceptance, wrapped in the silky threads of introspection. Styles challenges us with the question, 'Do you know who you are?', nudging us to embark on our own journey of self-exploration. The lyrics convey his refusal to regress into past versions of himself, even if it might be easier or more comfortable. He's stepping into the light - embracing his true identity, regardless of how blindingly bright it may be. In essence, this song is like a love letter to authenticity and growth - because nothing can snuff out the light that shines from within when we truly know ourselves.
