Paroles
I don’t wanna write this down,
I wanna tell you how I feel right now
I don’t wanna take no time to write this down,
I wanna tell you how I feel right now, hey
Tomorrow may never come
For you or me Life is not promised
Tomorrow may never show up For you and me This life is not promised
I ain’t no perfect man
I’m trying to do, the best that I can,
With what it is I have
I ain’t no perfect man
I’m trying to do, the best that I can,
With what it is I have
Put my heart and soul into this song
I hope you feel me
>From where I am, to wherever you are
I mean that sincerely
Tomorrow may never come
For and me Life is not promised
Tomorrow may never appear
You better hold this very moment very close to you
Very close to you
So close to you, So- close to you
Don’t be affraid, to let it shine
My Umi said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
My Abi said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
My Abi said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
My Umi said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
Sometimes I get discouraged
I look around and, things are so weak
People are so weak
Sometimes,
Sometimes I feel like crying
Sometimes my heart gets heavy
Sometimes I just want to leave and fly away
Sometimes I don’t know what to do with myself
Passion takes over me I feel like a man
Going insane
Losing my brain
Trying to maintain
Doing my thang
Hey hey hey hey hey
Put my heart and soul into this y’all
I hope you feel me Where I am, to wherever you are
Sometimes I don’t want to be bothered
Sometimes I just want a quiet life, with
Me and my babies, me and my lady
Sometimes I don’t want to get into no war
Sometimes I don’t wanna be a soldier
Sometimes I just wanna be a man, but
Umi said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
My Abi said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
My dreamers (?) said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
My elders said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
I want black people to be free, to be free, to be free
All my people to be free, to be free, to be free
Oh black people to be free, to be free, to be free
Oh black people to be free, to be free, to be free
That’s all that matters to me (x7)
Black people unite and let’s all get down
Gotta have what,
Gotta have that love
Peace and understanding
One God, one light
One man, one voice, one mic
Black people unite come on and do it right
Black people unite come on and do it right
Black people unite come on and get down
Gotta have what,
Love, peace and understanding
One God, one voice, one life
One man, gon' shine my light
Black people unite, now hop up and do it right
Black people unite, now come on and do it right
Yeah baby that’s what I like
Yeah baby that’s what I like
Yeah baby that’s what I like…

Mon Abi dit brille ta lumière sur le monde

Je veux que les noirs soient libres, libres, libres
Tout mon peuple d'être libre, être libre, être libre
Oh peuple noir d'être libre, être libre, être libre
Oh peuple noir d'être libre, être libre, être libre
C'est tout ce qui compte pour moi (x7)
Les noirs s'unissent et descendons tous
Dois avoir ce qu',
Je dois avoir cet amour
De la paix et de la compréhension
Un seul Dieu, une lumière
Un homme, une voix, un micro
Les noirs s'unissent allez et faites le bien
Les noirs s'unissent allez et faites le bien
Les noirs s'unissent venez et descendez
Dois avoir ce qu',
Amour, paix et compréhension
Un seul Dieu, une voix, une vie
Un homme, gon' briller ma lumière
Les noirs s'unissent, maintenant sautez et faites-le bien
Les noirs s'unissent, maintenant allez-y et faites-le bien
Oui bébé c'est ce que j'aime
Oui bébé c'est ce que j'aime
Oui bébé c'est ce que j'aime…
