CAN'T TAKE THAT AWAY
by Mariah Carey

They can say
Anything they want to say,
Try to bring me .
But I will not allow anyone to succeed
clouds over me.
And they can try
Hard to make me feel that I
Don't matter at all.
But I refuse to in what I believe
Or lose in my dreams.

'Cause there's, there's a light in me
That shines .
They can try,
But they can't take that away from me,
From me. No, no, no.

Oh, they, they can do
Anything they want to you,
If you let them in.
But they won't ever win,
If you to you pride,
And just push them aside.
See, I, I have learned,
There's an peace I own,
Something in my soul
That they cannot possess.
So I won't be afraid
And the will fade.

'Cause there's, there's a light in me
That shines .
They can try,
But they can't take that away from me,
From me. No, no, no.

They can't take this love
I'll always have inside me.
Certainly the Lord will guide me
Where I need to go.

They can say
Anything they want to say,
Try to bring me .
But I won't face the .
I will rise steadily,
Sailing out of their .
Oh, Lord, they do try
Hard to make me feel that I
Don't matter at all.
But I refuse to in what I believe
Or lose in my dreams.
'Cause there's a light in me
That shines .

They can try
But they can't take that away from me,
From me. No, no, no.
