Can't Take That Away

I used to like Mariah Carey, bought her cassette tapes to CD's, watched her videos and even wanted to be like her. 'Til the time came when I couldn't take looking at her anymore, but still, I listen to her songs all the time. I still love the way she sings and I love her songs especially her inspiring ones. So I'd like to share with you a song from her that keeps me company when I need it the most:

Can't Take That Away

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

'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, 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

'Cause there's a light in me that shines brightly
They can try but they can't take that away from me

No oh...
They can't take this precious love I'll always have inside me
Certainly the Lord will guide me, where I need to go, oh....

They can say anything they want to say
Try to bring 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

'Cause there's a light in me that shines brightly...
They can try but they can't take that away from me
