Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In a time full of war, be peace
In a time full of doubt, just believe
Yeah, there ain't that much difference between you and me
In a time full of war, be peace
[Chorus]
In a world full of hate, be a light
When you do somebody wrong, make it right
Don't hide in the dark, you were born to shine
In a world full of hate, be a light
[Verse 2]
In a place that needs change, make a difference
In a time full of noise, just listen
'Cause life is but a breeze, better live it
In a place that needs a change, make a difference
[Chorus]
In a world full of hate, be a light
When you do somebody wrong, make it right
Oh, don't hide in the dark, you were born to shine
In a world full of hate, be a light
[Bridge]
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
[Verse 3]
In a race that you can't win, slow it down
Yeah, you only get one go around
'Cause the finish line is six feet in the ground
In a race you can't win, just slow it down
[Chorus]
In a world full of hate, be a light
When you do somebody wrong, make it right (Make it right)
Don't hide in the dark, you were born to shine (Don't hide in the dark)
In a world full of hate, be a light
[Outro]
Yeah, it's hard to live in color
When you just see black and white
In a world full of hate, be a light
