John Legend & The Roots - Shine LyricsJohn Legend & The Roots - Shine Lyrics

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 yesterday?
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 light 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

Stars flicker in the distance, lonely out in space
They sing out when we're not listening, because 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
Yeah Yeah
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
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Let them shine on
