Let Your Light Shine Lyrics

Let your shine even tho they try to shade you

Don't let the demons in the dark be the ones that make you

Stay true to the path tho they try to break you

You gotta learn to look within, the only thing that'll save you

I know I had troubled past, easily mistaken

I was kinda like my dad, a lotta things that shaped me

Passion bubbling, that made a nigga act crazy

Was playing games, i'm sorry for alla dat ladies

Was flippin packs, been wanting to get the mac lately

I need it bad, detached when i was done waitin

Guess im the villain but never listened to words of Satan

True love showed me that i can have patience

Was no thug, the hate u give is the bed you lay in

I sold drugs, fucked bitches and made babies

I tryta to change, i still see they be tryna frame me

Listen to your heart, your third eye will be awakened

[I've seen some dark times couldn't let it dimmen my light

I know the light i got within so i'm letting it shine]

Watch the people thats close

They be watchin all your moves and really know if the deceptive shit worked

Dont gotta listen to me but you heard it here first

Allow this word to be my testimony, target from birth

Individual living in divisible land

A lot of shady deals made by invisible hands

Dark money, jane mayer and permissible grants

Im tryna teach the kids early so that they got a chance

Tryna speak to you thru rap so you know who i am

I'm just a diligent man, living in a war zone tryna do what i can

Tryna find love i see it's not part of the plan

I guess i gotta spread love, im tryna build up the fam

[dark times still couldn't let it dimmen my light

I know the light i got within so i'm letting it shine

I've seen some dark times couldn't let it]

Fit the description, 6'2" black dude

Snap back he wore to the back, tryna act cool

Stealin hearts, tryna sell a dream, guess i talk smooth

Feel the passion, kep it in my chest, i cannot lose

Fought my way thru depression, knew once i had found you

Thought that i was stressin, but honestly that was not true

See you as my blessing cuz everything came so natural

Don't even gotta question, i know that i'll make it back to you

Every challenge bring a lesson set on makin you better

I aint holdin onto shit because i could not be tethered

I gotta mission, somethin like national treasure

Became a prophet by the way i pieced together the letters

People used to look at me like maybe he nice

But now they lookin back twice like they rollin the dice

They know im cut throat, chillin, but i walk with a knife

Be tryna have hope, still gotta fend for my life

[I've seen some dark times couldn't let it dimmen my light

I know the light i got within so i'm letting it shine

I've seen some dark times couldn't let it dimmen my light

I know the light i got within so i'm letting it shine]
