Hey you kids, bullying the kids down at your school
|
one of these days you're gonna grow up, be ashamed
|
who gave you the right to decide who is and who aint cool
|
who could sit at your table and be on your team and play your games
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
let 'em shine, shine like a diamond
|
give 'em time and you'll fine theres not cover rose
|
God's light shines for everybody
|
so get outta His way
|
nothin grows in shadows
|
|
hey fathers, screamin' at your kids from the bleachers
|
saying "quit actin like a sissy, suck it up and win"
|
maybe you ought'a stop and think about what you're teaching
|
yeah you talk about a loser, I dont think it's them
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
let 'em shine, shine like a diamond
|
give 'em time and you'll fine theres not cover rose
|
God's light shines for everybody
|
so get outta His way
|
nothin grows in shadows
|
|
well I aint sayin' I aint been a shadow myself
|
a dark cloud that rained on somebody else
|
well I learned a lesson that I need to tell
|
the doctor that saved my mommas life
|
helped beat her cancer, made sure she got well
|
was a kid I went to school with all my life
|
man I used to give him hell
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
let 'em shine, shine like a diamond
|
give 'em time and you'll fine theres not cover rose
|
God's light shines for everybody
|
so get outta His way
|
nothin grows in shadows
|
|
oh get outta His way
|
nothin grows in shadows
|
