VERSE I

BIG BROTHER TOLD ME YE GOTTA SHINE ON
TOLD ME NO WAY YOUR GONNA DIE YOUNG
YOU’LL LIVE A LONG LIFE
HAVE A CUTE WIFE
BE THAT BRIGHT STAR
SHINE IN THE MOON LIGHT
GO GET IT
GO GET IT
I’M WIT IT HE SAID IT
UH HUH

IS IT A GRAMMY
AM I PREACHING
IS IT AN OSCAR
KIDS CALL ME FATHER?
FEELING LIKE STEVE JOBS
ONLY GOT ONE CHANCE
ONE SHOT, ONE LIFE
DON’T WANNA MESS IT UP
WHEN THE STAKES ARE UP
WON’T SPILL MY CUP
WHEN I OWE TOO MUCH

NOT GOING SULK AND WORRY ABOUT IT
I’M A STAND UP AND SHOUT ABOUT IT
FIND THE GIRL & HOLD HER AROUND ME
GET STOKED CAUSE YOU KNOW

CHORUS
I WANNA SHINE IN THE LIGHT
GLOW IN THE DARK
STRIKE LIKE A MATCH
ON A BURNING HEART
SHINE LIKE THE SUN
LIGHT UP THE GLOBE
CAUSE MAMA DIDN’T RAISE NO ROLLING STONE

VERSE II
BIG SISTER CALLED ME THE HERO
YOU CAN SAVE US ALL FROM ZERO
NO CAPE OR SUPER POWERS
BUT FEARS IT COWERS
AND FAITH IT SHOWERS
NO SAVIOR
BUT I’LL BE YOUR NEIGHBOR
HELP THOSE FROM HERE TO ASIA
JUST CALL LIKE YE NEED A FAVOR
HIGH FIVE TILL I SEE YE LATER

OH OH OH OK, OK
MISSED IT TODAY
NO WAY
PICK UP WHERE I LEFT OFF
SHINE ON, SHINE ON
ARMY STYLE RE-CON
TIME ON
TIME ON

ONLY GET ONE CHANCE, ONE SHOT
ONE LIFE, CAN’T STOP
DON’T WANNA MESS IT UP
WHEN THE STAKES ARE UP
WON’T SPILL MY CUP
WHEN I OWE TOO MUCH, HEY

CHORUS
I WANNA SHINE IN THE LIGHT
GLOW IN THE DARK
STRIKE LIKE A MATCH
ON A BURNING HEART
SHINE LIKE THE SUN
LIGHT UP THE GLOBE
CAUSE MAMA DIDN’T RAISE NO ROLLING STONE
SHINE IN THE LIGHT
GLOW IN THE DARK
STRIKE LIKE A MATCH
ON A BURNING HEART
SHINE LIKE THE SUN
LIGHT UP THE GLOBE
CAUSE MAMA DIDN’T RAISE NO ROLLING STONE

BRIDGE
YOU RAISED ME
SAVED ME
I’M NEVER ALONE
I GAVE IT
MADE IT
NOT ON MY OWN

SOMETIMES WHEN I FEEL ALONE
GET SO LOW LIKE I”M IN A ZONE
FELL ASLEEP LIKE A WEEK AGO
WOKE UP TRIPPING LIKE WHERE’D I GO

GIVE ME SOME OF THAT ANTIDOTE
GET ME UNDER THAT RAINBOW
HATERS WANNA TRY AND STOP THE SHOW
KEEPING ON SHINING THROUGH YOUR WINDOW

CHORUS
I WANNA SHINE IN THE LIGHT
GLOW IN THE DARK
STRIKE LIKE A MATCH
ON A BURNING HEART
SHINE LIKE THE SUN
LIGHT UP THE GLOBE
CAUSE MAMA DIDN’T RAISE NO ROLLING STONE
SHINE IN THE LIGHT
GLOW IN THE DARK
STRIKE LIKE A MATCH
ON A BURNING HEART
SHINE LIKE THE SUN
LIGHT UP THE GLOBE
CAUSE MAMA DIDN’T RAISE NO ROLLING STONE
