"I'll Show You" is a song recorded by Canadian singer Justin Bieber for his fourth studio album Purpose (2015). Written by Bieber, Josh Gudwin, Sonny Moore, Michael Tucker and Theron Feemster, the song was produced by Skrillex and Blood. It was released as a promotional single from the album on November 2, 2015, by Def Jam. A mid-tempo Electronic pop ballad, the song includes trap percussion and synthesizer beds as its main instrumentation. Bieber's vocals on the track were considered emotional, lower, and calmer. Lyrically, "I'll Show You" was considered an autobiographical song about his public image, with lyrics about the pressure of fame and the need for human connection.

The song received acclaim from most music critics, who praised Skrillex's production and his chemistry with Bieber, while also noting his rawness and praising his vocals on the track. Commercially, the song was successful, reaching the top-ten in seven countries, including his native Canada, as well as the top-twenty in another six, including Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States where it received platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America. The song's music video was shot in South Iceland and released on November 2, 2015. It shows Bieber on lush mountainsides, gazing at nature from a cliff's edge, and skateboarding on top of a broken-down airplane. "I'll Show You" was included on his Purpose World Tour.
