I won’t melt when the rain falls down
I will sing and dance around
I shall grin I shall not frown
And when it floods I will not drown
If the lightning strikes my head
It’s not something that I dread
Because it can’t make me drop dead
It ignites my mind instead
Thunder does not frighten me
It’s drums that make my dance more free
As it resounds threateningly
My feet will glow vibrantly
And as my light sees the sky
It shall sprout wings so it can fly
It will rocket up so high
And rain joy down on passersby
The sun will see and fight the clouds
Rising again to defeat rains shroud
I’ll light up again and scream so loud
And share my delight with all the crowds
One day warmth will cover you
The ones who dance are very few
We’re all bright colors with a unique hue
Some are purples, greens, reds, and blues
And if we all just could shine bright
We would overcome the night
The battle is never a fair fight
But friend, you’ll win if you’ll shine your light

It’s drums that make my dance more free

And as my light sees the sky
It shall sprout wings so it can fly
It will rocket up so high
And rain joy down on passersby
The sun will see and fight the clouds
Rising again to defeat rains shroud
I’ll light up again and scream so loud
And share my delight with all the crowds
One day warmth will cover you

Some are purples, greens, reds, and blues
And if we all just could shine bright
We would overcome the night
The battle is never a fair fight
But friend, you’ll win if you’ll shine your light
