Disney’s Encanto captivated audiences worldwide, and its music, especially the song “All of You,” continues to resonate. Even months after the film’s release, the soundtrack remains incredibly popular, with “All of You” achieving significant chart success. This uplifting ensemble number serves as the movie’s grand finale, bringing together the Madrigal family in a powerful moment of unity and acceptance. Sung by Stephanie Beatriz, Olga Merediz, John Leguizamo, Adassa, Maluma, and the Encanto cast, “All of You” beautifully encapsulates the film’s core themes. Let’s delve into the “Song All Of You Lyrics” to understand why this track has struck a chord with so many listeners.
“All of You” emerges as a pivotal moment in Encanto, arriving after the family confronts their fractured relationships and individual struggles. The lyrics reflect a journey from despair and misunderstanding to hope and reconciliation. The opening lines, “Look at this home, we need a new foundation / It may seem hopeless but we’ll get by just fine,” immediately acknowledge the challenges the Madrigals face. However, they are quickly followed by a message of resilience and familial strength: “Look at this family, a glowing constellation / So full of stars and everybody wants to shine.” This contrast sets the stage for the song’s central theme: recognizing individual imperfections and embracing collective strength.
The lyrics then pivot to address the pressure of expectations and the burden of gifts, central conflicts throughout Encanto. “But the stars don’t shine, they burn / And the constellations shift / I think it’s time you learn / You’re more than just your gift.” This powerful stanza emphasizes the crucial message that each family member’s worth extends beyond their magical abilities. Mirabel, who has struggled with feeling inadequate, is reassured: “And I’m sorry I held on too tight / Just so afraid I’d lose you too / The miracle is not some magic that you’ve got / The miracle is you, not some gift, just you / The miracle is you / All of you, all of you.” This repetition reinforces the song’s title and core message of unconditional acceptance.
The song cleverly weaves in other key characters and plot points from Encanto. Bruno’s return and apologies are integrated seamlessly: “Okay, so we gonna talk about Bruno? (That’s Bruno) / Yeah, there’s a lot to say about Bruno.” This lighthearted acknowledgment of the film’s most talked-about song, “We Don’t Talk About Bruno,” adds a layer of meta-awareness and humor. Pepa and Félix’s lines, “Pepa, I’m sorry ’bout your wedding, didn’t mean to be upsetting / That wasn’t a prophecy, I could just see you were sweating,” and “That’s what I’m always saying, bro / Got a lotta ‘pologies I got to say,” further resolve past conflicts and contribute to the overall theme of forgiveness and reconciliation.
The community’s participation in “All of You” broadens the scope of acceptance beyond just the Madrigal family. “Hey / Lay down your load (lay down your load) / We are only down the road (we are only down the road) / We have no gifts, but we are many / And we’ll do anything for you.” This verse highlights the importance of community support and collective effort, reinforcing the idea that everyone has value, regardless of magical gifts.
Luisa and Isabela’s verses showcase personal growth and vulnerability. Luisa admits, “You’re so strong / Yeah, but sometimes I cry,” while Isabela embraces imperfection: “I may not be as strong but I’m getting wiser / Yeah, I need sunlight and fertilizer.” These admissions of vulnerability further humanize the characters and make them relatable. The lines “Come on, let’s plant something new and watch it fly / Straight up to the sky, let’s go” symbolize hope for the future and the potential for growth and new beginnings.
The song culminates in a powerful affirmation of self-acceptance and familial love. Julieta’s lines, “We see how bright you burn / We see how brave you’ve been / Now, see yourself in turn / You’re the real gift, kid, let us in / Open your eyes,” are directed at Mirabel, but resonate with everyone who has ever struggled with self-doubt. The final lines, “Abre los ojos / What do you see? / I see me / All of me,” mark Mirabel’s ultimate self-acceptance and the family’s complete embrace of her, and each other, for who they truly are.
Full Lyrics of All of You:
[Verse 1: Mirabel & Camilo]
Look at this home, we need a new foundation
It may seem hopeless but we’ll get by just fine
Look at this family, a glowing constellation
So full of stars and everybody wants to shine
[Pre-Chorus: Julieta, Agustín, Mirabel, & Camilo]
But the stars don’t shine, they burn
And the constellations shift
I think it’s time you learn
You’re more than just your gift
[Chorus: Mirabel & Family]
And I’m sorry I held on too tight
Just so afraid I’d lose you too
The miracle is not some magic that you’ve got
The miracle is you, not some gift, just you
The miracle is you
All of you, all of you
[Verse 2: Félix, Pepa, & Bruno]
Okay, so we gonna talk about Bruno? (That’s Bruno)
Yeah, there’s a lot to say about Bruno
I’ll start, okay
Pepa, I’m sorry ’bout your wedding, didn’t mean to be upsetting
That wasn’t a prophecy, I could just see you were sweating
And I wanted you to know that your bro loves you so
Let it in, let it out, let it rain, let it snow, let it go
[Verse 3: Pepa, Félix, & Bruno]
That’s what I’m always saying, bro
Got a lotta ‘pologies I got to say
(Hey, we’re just happy that you’re here, okay?)
Uh, But
Come into the light, the triplets all reunite
And no matter what happens we’re gonna find our way
Yo, I knew he never left, I heard him every day
[Bridge: Townspeople & Family]
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) What’s that sound? (Oh, oh)
I think it’s everyone in town
Hey
Lay down your load (lay down your load)
We are only down the road (we are only down the road)
We have no gifts, but we are many
And we’ll do anything for you
[Verse 4: Luisa & Isabela]
It’s a dream when we work as a team (all of you, all of you)
You’re so strong
Yeah, but sometimes I cry (all of you, all of you)
So do I
I may not be as strong but I’m getting wiser
Yeah, I need sunlight and fertilizer
Come on, let’s plant something new and watch it fly
Straight up to the sky, let’s go
[Verse 5: Agustín, Julieta, & Mariano]
The stars don’t shine, they burn
The constellations glow
The seasons change in turn
Would you watch our little girl go?
She takes after you
Oh
Hey Mariano, why so blue?
[Verse 6: Dolores & Mariano]
I just have so much love inside
You know, I’ve got this cousin too
Have you met Dolores?
Okay, I’ll take it from here, goodbye
[Verse 7: Dolores]
You talk so loud
You take care of your mother and you make her proud
You write your own poetry every night when you go to sleep
And I’m seizing the moment, so would you wake up and notice me?
[Chorus: Dolores, Mariano, & Townspeople]
Dolores, I see you (and I hear you)
Yes (all of you, all of you)
Let’s get married (slow down)
All of you, all of you
[Outro: Abuela & Mirabel]
Home sweet home
I like the new foundation
It isn’t perfect
Neither are we (that’s true)
Just one more thing
Before the celebration (what?)
We need a doorknob
We made this one for you
[Chorus: Julieta, Abuela, & Family]
We see how bright you burn
We see how brave you’ve been
Now, see yourself in turn
You’re the real gift, kid, let us in
Open your eyes
[Spoken Outro: Abuela & Mirabel]
Abre los ojos
What do you see?
I see me
All of me
