Mandisa and Britt Nicole's "What You're Worth" is an empowering Christian pop anthem that encourages listeners, especially women, to recognize their inherent value and identity in God. The song addresses the pressure to conform and the pain of being dragged down, but insists that no one can take away your soul or worth. It calls for standing strong, letting your inner fire burn, and boldly showing the world your true value. The lyrics reference being created for a purpose solely God's and finding strength in Jesus, who sticks closer than a friend. The overall message is one of confidence, resilience, and faith in God's design.

[Mandisa:]
Come on, ladies!
Who you gotta be, what you gotta do, what you gotta say
If you gotta bend too far to please, you're gonna break
Yeah they dragged you down
And left you low
But they can't take your soul
Set it free
Set it free
Let it go
You gotta fight
Stand up strong
You got a fire
So let it burn on
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em whatcha
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
You gotta roar
Get up and shout
Ain't gotta blend in
Go on and stand out
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em whatcha
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em whatcha
(Sing, Britt!)
[Britt Nicole:]
They might think those dark deeds hide behind the veil
But the light shines in and innocence has never been for sale
Yeah they dragged you down
And left you low
But they can't take your soul
Set it free
Set it free
And let it go (yeah!)
[Mandisa:]
You gotta fight
Stand up strong
You got a fire
So let it burn on (Let it burn on!)
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em whatcha
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
You gotta roar
Get up and shout
Ain't gotta blend in
Go on and stand out (Go on and stand out!)
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em whatcha
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em whatcha
[Mandisa & Britt Nicole:]
Show show show show
Show 'em what you're worth (Show 'em watcha)
Show 'em what you're worth (Show 'em watcha)
Yeah, yeah
Show show show show
Show 'em whatcha
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
[Mandisa:]
I got this funky kinda swagga
Only some can understand-a
The kinda swag that only comes from my designer
See, I'm not sensitive
To who you think I is
I've been created for a purpose that is solely His
Know what I'm worth and, aye!
Don't plan on playing games
I'm a destiny's child
I say His name, say His name
Jesus the only one
Stick closer than a friend
And watch that fire deep inside you never die again
[Mandisa & Britt Nicole:]
You gotta fight
Stand up strong
You got a fire
So let it burn on (Let it burn on!)
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em whatcha
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
(Come on and show 'em what you're worth!)
You gotta roar
Get up and shout
Ain't gotta blend in
Go on and stand out
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em whatcha
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em whatcha
Show 'em what you're worth
Show 'em what you're worth
