They'll Try to Make You Feel
That You're Not Good Enough
You Feel So Incomplete
Don't Let Them Change You
Show This Whole World
That You Were Made to Shine
They Can't Shut Out Your Light
No Matter How Hard They Try
They Try, But the Never Can Win
'cause They Can't Stop What's Inside
They'll Try to Take and Try to Break You Down
You Ought to Shine
They Can't Shut Out Your Light
No Matter How Hard They Try
They Try, But They Never Can Win
'cause They Can't Stop What's Inside
They'll Try to Take and Try to Break You Down
You Ought to Shine
There's a Fire Inside of You
That They Can't Ever, Ever Understand
Check the Light From Strong and Bright
And Shine
They Can't Shut Out Your Light
No Matter How Hard They Try
They Try, But They Never Can Win
'cause They Can't Stop What's Inside
They'll Try to Take and Try to Break You Down
They'll Try to Take and Try to Break You Down
You're Born to
You're Born to
You're Born to
You're Born to
You're Born to
You're Born to
You're Born to
You're Born to
Shine
