La canción Brave fue inspirada por una amiga cercana de Sara Bareilles que estaba luchando para salir del armario. Bareilles quería crear una canción que ofreciera ánimo y apoyo durante este difícil momento. La letra anima a las personas a decir lo que piensan y ser valientes ante los desafíos.

G
You can be amazing
G
You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug
Em
You can be the outcast
Em
Or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love
C
D
Or you can start speaking up
G
Nothing’s gonna hurt you the way that words do
G
And they settle ‘neath your skin
Em
Kept on the inside and no sunlight
C
Sometimes a shadow wins
D
But I wonder what would happen if you
G
Say what you wanna say
Em
C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
With what you want to say
Em
C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
D
I wanna see you be brave
G
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
D
I wanna see you be brave
G
Everybody’s been there, everybody’s been stared down
G
By the enemy
Em
Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing
Em
Bow down to the mighty
C
D
Don’t run, stop holding your tongue
G
Maybe there’s a way out of the cage where you live
