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

If you cling to your pride and just push them aside
See I, I have learned
There's an inner peace I own

[Chorus]
'Cause there's
There's a light in me
That shines brightly

I will rise steadily sailing out of their reach
Oh, Lord, 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
[Chorus]
'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, no, no, no
