When it’s dark outside

Think about the light

When you’re feeling alone

Think about your life

It’s okay sometimes

Find your inner flame

Find it deep inside

Before it fades away

What’s the fire that drives you

What ignites your soul

What keeps pushing you forward

Down that broken road

Where do you see yourself

When the mirrors crack

Are you strong enough

To bounce right back

Do you stay on your knees

Let the weight pull you down

Stuck deep in a hole

Spinning circles around

Or you take control

Go all in, no fear

What’s inside of you

Let the whole world hear

Don’t hide it from yourself

Show it to the crowd

Make yourself useful

Turn the “me” into “us”

What you give comes back

Yeah believe that fact

You are your own luck

You are more than that

When it’s dark outside

Think about the light

When you’re feeling alone

Think about your life

It’s okay sometimes

Find your inner flame

Find it deep inside

Before it fades away

Gratitude is giving and receiving

Gratitude keeps us breathing

Gratitude on its own

Keeps life moving on

When it’s dark outside

Think about the light

When you’re feeling alone

Think about your life

It’s okay sometimes

Find your inner flame

Find it deep inside

Before it fades away

Yeah I had a father

Never really there

When I needed help

He disappeared

Hard to understand

But I made my peace

Found my own direction

Built myself from streets

The streets were my father

My closest guide

Everything and nothing

Living inside

Brothers and sisters

I thank you all

For the days behind me

For every fall

The streets shaped my skin

Even when they hit

I loved them always

They loved me back a bit

A sacred place

Where I learned it all

Thick skin, sharp eyes

Stand or fall

Quick decisions

When it had to be done

I love the streets

From the cradle to the gun

From the cradle to the grave

Yeah I stand and say

I love the streets

Thank you anyway

When it’s dark outside

Think about the light

When you’re feeling alone

Think about your life

It’s okay sometimes

Find your inner flame

Find it deep inside

Before it fades away
