Can't Take That Away
Mariah Carey
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's, there's a light in me that shines brightly
They can try, but they can't take that away from me
Oh, 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
See I have learned, there's an inner peace that 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, 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, oh, they can say anything they want to say, try to bring 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 in what I believe or lose faith in my dreams
'Cause there's a light in me that shines, brightly
They can try, but they can't take that away from me
From me
