Watch me as I dance under the spotlight
Listen to the people screaming out more, and more
'Cos I create the feeling that keep 'em coming back
Yeah, I create the feeling that keep 'em coming back
So captivating when I get it on the floor
Know y'all been patiently waiting, I know you need me, I can feel it
I'm a beast, I'm an animal, I'm that monster in the mirror
The head liner, finisher, I'm the closer, winner
Best when under pressure with seconds left I show up
If you really want more, scream it out louder
If you on the floor, bring out the fire
And light it up, take it up higher
Gonna push it to the limit, give it more
If you really want more, scream it out louder
If you on the floor, bring out the fire
And light it up, take it up higher
Gonna push it to the limit, give it more
Get up both your hands, I'm in the zone, tight
Put them in the air, if you more and more
'Cos I can't wait to feel it
I go hard, can't stop
But if I stop, just know that Imma bring it back
Never quitting, don't believe in that
Know y'all been patiently waiting, I know you need me, I can feel it
I'm a beast, I'm an animal, I'm that monster in the mirror
The head liner, finisher, I'm the closer, winner
Best when under pressure with seconds left I show up
If you really want more, scream it out louder
If you on the floor, bring out the fire
And light it up, take it up higher
Gotta push it to the limit, give it more
If you really want more, scream it out louder
If you on the floor, bring out the fire
And light it up, take it up higher
Gonna push it to the limit, give it more
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Gotta push it to the limit, give it more
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Gotta push it to the limit, give it more
If you really want more, scream it out louder
If you on the floor, bring out the fire
And light it up, take it up higher
Gotta push it to the limit, give it more
If you really want more, scream it out louder
If you on the floor, bring out the fire
And light it up, take it up higher
Gonna push it to the limit, give it more
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Gotta push it to the limit, give it more
About This Song
"More" is a high-energy declaration of artistic dominance and crowd control that showcases Usher at his most confident and commanding. The song operates on multiple levels - literally about his ability to electrify audiences and leave them wanting more of his performance, but metaphorically about his hunger for continued relevance and supremacy in a competitive music landscape. Usher positions himself as both entertainer and predator, using animalistic imagery ("beast," "animal," "monster") to convey his relentless drive and stage presence. The track's pulsating electronic production, built around heavy synths and a club-ready beat, creates an atmosphere of controlled chaos that mirrors the intoxicating power dynamic between performer and audience. Released during a pivotal moment in his career on "Raymond Vs. Raymond," the song reflects Usher's need to reassert his position as R&B royalty while adapting to the evolving hip-hop influenced landscape of 2010. The lyrics reveal an almost addictive relationship with fame and performance - he "creates the feeling" that keeps audiences returning, suggesting both his artistic mastery and his own dependence on that validation. The song resonated because it captured the essence of live performance energy in a way that felt both celebratory and slightly dangerous, embodying the magnetic pull of a true entertainer who understands his power over a crowd. Ultimately, "More" functions as both a boast track and a meditation on the performer's eternal quest for audience satisfaction and personal fulfillment through artistry.
