The Dimming

I used to think I had to be
A certain type of way to make the faces smile on me
The clothes I wear, the words I speak
Do my make up like a close-up on the TV screen

But there's a beat inside my chest
A drummer calling me to do my best

I ain't gonna dim my light for no one
Baby, we were meant to shine forever
I ain't gonna dim my light for no one
Baby we got all we need

I see your head is hanging low, low, low
Doing all you can to keep the spark inside your soul
Wish you could see you like I do
You're original
You're powerful
You're something new

Can't wait to see just where you go
I do believe you're gonna let them know

I ain't gonna dim my light for no one
Baby, we were meant to shine forever
I ain't gonna dim my light for no one
Baby we got all we need

You are a supernatural being
You eat stardust for breakfast
Don't dim your light for no one
Gravity can't hold you
Time can't stop you
Don't dim your light for no one
