Just As You Are

Taura Stinson/Darien Dorsey/Brittany Howard

Verse 1
Dare not look behind you,
You’ve come too far.
Let the tears you shed remind you of who you really are.
You searched the entire world just to find.
Everything you needed was right inside you.

CHORUS
…So turn on your light on.
Let us see who you are!
One in a million,
No one’s playing your part.
Don’t be perfect
But like the moon & the stars
You shine
Just as you are

Verse 2
When you can’t see the rainbow through the cloud…
When thunder breaks your voice and drowns you out.
Darkness can’t exist where there is light.
So get up on your feet now, baby rise and shine!

CHORUS
…So turn on your light on.
Let us see who you are!
One in a million,
No one’s playing your part.
Don’t be perfect
But like the moon & the stars
You shine
Just as you are
Turn your light on
Bring it out from within
If you feel broken
That’s how the light gets in
Don’t be perfect
Like the moon & the stars
You shine
Just as you are

Shine your light, shine your light, shine your light x3

I hope you know you know you’re beautiful!
I hope you know you’re magical!
I hope you shine all over the world!
I hope you know you’re beautiful!

(Shine your light. Shine your light. Shine your light.)
Dare not look behind you, you’ve come too far.
