I will not fade I won't let my light go out I will not masquerade I know who i am, and what my purpose is all about (chorus) For all these years I've traveled on And you have cheered, Shine on, shine on What i am And who i am Is never gonna change The hits will come But i will not be swayed I've always been What i am The world can clearly see I won't fade away There is no life That i would rather live I will continue on Until you take me home (chorus) I don't run When stormy skies appear, i pray Oh the power I possess when skies turn black I still burn The light's on What i am And who i am Is never gonna change The hits will come But i will not be swayed I've always been What i am The world can clearly see I won't fade away What i am And who i am Is never gonna change The hits will come But i will not be swayed I've always been What i am The world can clearly see I won't fade away What i am...
