I wouldn¥t ask if you weren¥t able
I wouldn¥t up and waste your time
But all I see are written fables
All these people lost in rhymes
A couple smokes now
In the dark
A couple dreams gone unheard
Life¥s a work of art
I see that boy there
Whitest lies
He¥s got the makings but he
Doesn¥t want to try
But everything you see and do
It¥s all reflection you
You gotta raise those fists and fight
C¥mon boy now be a light
You take the pain turn it
Into a sunrise
You wrestle fear and envy
Don¥t believe the lies
I know you got it in you
To do what¥s good and right
I know you love with all of you
Go on be a light
The subway screeches to a dead halt
A passenger can only ride
But everyday you¥ve lived your truth
Followed did all you could do
You gotta know that it¥s alright
All you can do is be a light
You take the pain turn it
Into a sunrise
You wrestle fear and envy
Don¥t believe the lies
I know you got it in you
To do what¥s good and right
I know you love with all of you
Go on be a light
I wanna thank you for believing
For knowing that you¥d make it through
It¥s all a legend that you¥re leaving
Another day for me and you
A couple smokes now
In the dark
