Lyrics

Hmmmm Hmmmm 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, there's a light in me (Haaah) That shines brightly (Haaah) They can try but they can't take that away from me (haaah) From me Hmmmm Nanadadadadada They-ee Oh, they, they can do Anything they want to you If you let them in But they wont 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 wont be afraid and the darkness will fade 'Cause there, there's a light in me That shines brightly, yes They can try but they can't take that away from me No (no), they can't take this precious love I'll always have inside me Certainly the Lord will guide me Where I need to go Oh, they can say anything they want to say (hmm hmm) Try to bring me down But I wont face the ground 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 'Cause there's a light in me That shines brightly, yes They can try but they can't take that away from me
