[Intro]
(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)
(All black people to be free, to be free, to be free)
(All black people to be free, to be free, to be free)
[Verse 1]
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, yeah
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
I 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 you and me, life is not promised
Tomorrow may never appear
You better hold this very moment very close to you
(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)
(All black people to be free, to be free, to be free)
(All black people to be free, to be free, to be free)
[Verse 1]
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, yeah
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
Tomorrow may never come
For you or me, life is not promised

For you and me, this life is not promised
