They can say anything they want to say
Try to bring me down
But I will not allow
Anyone to succeed
Hanging clouds over me
And they can try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter in what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams
Cause there's, there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me
From me…
Oh, they, they can do anything they want to you
If you let them in
But they won't ever win
If you cling to your pride
And just push them aside
See I,
I have learned there's an inner peace I own
Something in my soul
That they cannot possess
So I won't be afraid And the darkness will fade
Cause there's, there's a light in me
That shines brightly
Yes, they can try
But they can't take that away from me
They can't take this
Precious love I'll always have inside me
Certainly the Lord will guide me
Where I need to go…
They can say anything they want to say
Try to break me down
But I won't face the ground I will rise steadily
Sailing out of their reach
They do try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter in what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams
Cause there's a light in me that shines brightly…
Yes, they can try
But they can't take that away from me
From me…
