Can't Take That Away Lyrics

by Mariah Carey

They can say anything they want to say
Try to bring me down
But I will not allow, anyone to succeed hanging clouds over me
And they can try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter in what I believe or lose faith in my dreams

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e17758-mariah_carey~cant_take_that_away_lyrics.html ]
Chorus :
'Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me
From me

They can do anything they want to you
lf you let them in
But they won't ever win
If you cling to your pride and just push them aside
See
I have learned there's an inner peace I own
Something in my soul that they cannot possess
So I won't be afraid and darkness will fade

[Chorus]

No
They can't take this
Precious love, l'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 break me down
But I won't face the ground
I will rise steadily sailing out of their reach

Oh Lord
They do try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter in what I believe or lose faith in my dreams

[Chorus]
