When it gets dark and nobody can see
I reach for this light burning inside of me
Let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Just let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Just let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Just let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Are you scared of the dark as the nightmares were hard
On your dreams and desires of your heart
See I was a loner, stuck in personnas of cool kids and stoners,
Getting high just to feel the void aparts
I wanna be the star for my city so I work hard
I would call into god, but god don’t call the guard
Just some pocket change, and this empty room
Did daddy can we leave I can’t take the fumes
I know you scared that your life ain’t what is sposed to be
But my mama ain’t to blame for your tendencies
Watching she get the blood of your misery
I really wish you could change what they heard from me
Thank God ain't prayers any cheaper, cause we can only aford a pair of the filas
But jordans make em cool I wanna be cooler
Popping them but never lazy to get the mula, so I say

When it gets dark and nobody can see
I reach for this light burning inside of me
Let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Just let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Just let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Just let me shine, ah, ah, ah
I’m talking same blood, same bottles, same pain, same song
Same heart, same buckle we run it for them all
For my city and my fans, for all the lonely kids screaming in the stands
For the addicted tuition single mother misses that the father went missing
But now they crying in the kitchen, hold your head, don’t be scared
Look out the window, red as rain, the rain gonna follow
Let it shine, I thought that I was strong
Had my last dollar and they kicked me out of school
Architecture major can these angers still grow
Can I get along, to finish what I drove
Finish what we started, coming from the bottom
Dearly departed where light shows a warning
Windy shadows play at night not day
Excluded in my rumors like this flu now watch me fly, burn!
[Hook]
When it gets dark and nobody can see
I reach for this light burning inside of me
Let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Just let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Just let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Just let me shine, ah, ah, ah
Now everybody sing, hey ho, oho, oho, oho, hey ho,
Hey ho, oho, oho, oho, hey ho,
Say this little light of mine, I’m gonn let it shine
Say this little light of mine, I’m gonn let it shine
