Nothin’ Grows In Shadows
[Verse 1]
Hey you kids, bullying the kids down at your school
One of these days you're going to grow up, be ashamed
Who gave you the right to decide who is and who isn't cool
Who could sit at your table and be on your team and play your games

[Chorus]
Let them shine, shine like a diamond
Give them time and you'll fine theres not cover rose
God's light shines for everybody
So get out of His way
Nothing grows in shadows

[Verse 2]
Hey fathers, screaming at your kids from the bleachers
Saying "quit acting like a sissy, suck it up and win"
Maybe you ought to stop and think about what you're teaching
Yeah you talk about a loser, I dont think it's them

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Well I am not saying I am not been a shadow myself
A dark cloud that rained on somebody else
Well I learned a lesson that I need to tell
The doctor that saved my mommas life
Helped beat her cancer, made sure she got well
Was a kid I went to school with all my life
Man I used to give him hell
[Chorus]

[Outro]
Oh get out of His way
Nothing grows in shadows
