Shine Lyrics - Wake Up! - John Legend & The Roots

They wait to plead their case 

Unknown, cast aside 

I love to see their face 

Can we spare the light? 

 

Are we afraid to see 

The prisoners of history? 

These beautiful minds, trapped inside 

Bring them back to life 

 

Let them shine 

Let them shine on 

Let them shine 

Let them shine on 

 

So dark, but I see sparks 

If we don't snuff them out 

We gotta let them flame, let them speak their name 

Let them reach up to the clouds

Can't eat if we don't feed them 

Can't read if we don't teach them 

There's no line if we just hide them 

Don't just let them die 

 

Let them shine 

Let them shine on 

Let them shine 

Let them shine on 

 

Let them shine on 

Let them shine on 

Let them shine on 

Let them shine on 

 

Stars flicker in the distance 

Lonely out in space 

They sing out when we're not listening 

'Cause we don't see their face

We can let them die, we can make them high 

Hold the little miracles that live inside 

Let them shine 

 

Let them shine 

Let them shine on 

Let them live 

Let them shine on 

 

Let them read on 

Let them shine on 

Let them grow 

Let them shine on 

 

Come on, let them love 

Come on, let them love 

Come on, let them love 

 

Hold them close, let them know 

They'll get through the night 

Ordinary people could be a hero 

Don't blow out the light 

 

Let them shine 

Let them shine on 

Let them shine 

Let them shine on 

 

Let them shine on
