[Intro 2]
Na na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na na, na na

[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't gon' tell no lie, yeah, I been through the fire
But I'm still gon' shine, yeah, 'cause I got the light, yeah
Ain't no way to stop the wave, the Devil is a liar
Ain't no pain that I can't take, when the sun is shinin'

[Chorus: Choir & Swoope]
And it's all right, a'ight, a'ight
And it's all right, a'ight, a'ight
And it's all right
This little light of mine, yeah
I'm gonna let it shine, yeah
And it's all right

[Verse]
Yeah
I don't know what you was expecting but you listenin' to a miracle
I know it's kind of a confusin' reflection
I don't look like what I been through
I thank God for the mercy on me
I pray to God 'cause this work is lonely
For every time I was chasing the check
I pray to God "Keep working on me", uh
Prayin' hands, then an umbrella, then a one-hundred, then a church emoji
Man, I'm thanking God for raining blessings down on the real doing his work
It's only one life that we got so we gotta live it like this is not only for existin'
Time's a commodity, come out of the illusion that you got time for chillin'
I ain't have a choice so I took a chance
I ain't have a voice so I took the stance
I can keep it real or I can keep it moving
You can't keep me still so I'ma keep improvin'
'Cause everybody with a dream don't chase it
Everybody with some talent don't make it
Everybody got time, don't waste it
The wave is celebratin' God's graces
[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't gon' tell no lie, yeah, I been through the fire
But I'm still gon' shine, yeah, 'cause I got the light, yeah
Ain't no way to stop the wave, the Devil is a liar
Ain't no pain that I can't take, when the sun is shinin'

[Chorus: Choir & Swoope]
And it's all right, a'ight, a'ight
And it's all right, a'ight, a'ight
And it's all right
This little light of mine, yeah
I'm gonna let it shine, yeah
And it's all right
