Can’t Take That Away by 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 a light in me that shines brightly 

They can try but they can’t take that away from me

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 I own 

Something in my soul 

That they cannot possess 

So I won’t be afraid 

And the darkness will fade

Cause there’s a light in me that shines brightly 

They can try but they can’t take that away from me

No they can’t take this precious love I will always have inside me 

Certainly the Lord will guide me where I need to go

They can say anything they 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
