Hey, what would you say If I can't play the hero tonight 'Cause lately I've been feelin' like I can't get anything right
I've been fading into the woodwork again And I'm feelin' like I just want to hide But guess what I'm gonna try something just a little bit different this time
I'm gonna give myself permission to shine I'm gonna shine so bright Gonna make every head want to turn You're finally gonna see me Give myself permission to shine Gonna light up the night Shine a little of my light on the world
I've been crazy I've been holdin' myself back for so long But I've got so much I can give Don't want to be afraid to be wrong
You know I'm not too good at too many things But I've been gettin' real good at gettin' down on myself But guess what I'm gonna try to break free from this prison I\"ve built
I'm gonna give myself permission to shine I'm gonna shine so bright Gonna make every head want to turn You're finally gonna see me Give myself permission to shine Gonna light up the night Shine a little of my light on the world
Oh, that's right I'm gonna try something just a little bit different this time
I'm gonna give myself permission to shine I'm gonna shine so bright Gonna make every head want to turn You're finally gonna see me Give myself permission to shine Gonna light up the night Shine a little of my light on the world
(Give myself permission to shine) I want to light up the night Shine a little of my light on the world
