Can't Take That Away

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 doing 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
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

Say
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
They can try
But they can't take that away from me

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

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

Oh, Lord
They do try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter doing 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
