lyrics

Scatting…..
I’m gonna leave that fear to cower down in its own shadow
I’m gonna leave that doubt to close the door on itself
I’m gonna let that anger drown itself into the flames of judgement
I’m gonna let that righteous judgment sentence itself
I’m gonna leave those lies a fallen down into a cheating hole

I gotta get myself from the fallen angels
Up to where the big trees grow
I gotta get myself from Texas
I gotta get up to New Mexico

This little light of mine
Said I’m gonna let it shine
Yeah, won’t let no one put it out
I”m gona let it shine
Cause when you curse the darkness
You block the light
If you join the battle
You’ve lost the fight

Scatting…
I’m gonna let the pride get swallowed up by its own boasting
I’m gonna let that blind revenge devour itself
I’m gonna leave that jealousy ride envy into the grave
I’m gonna leave that hate a squeezing the blood from its heart

Walk through the valley of judgement
But myself I try to judge not
Was it not by the foolishness of judgement
All of these wars have been fought
This little light of mine
I’m gonna let it shine
And I won’t let no one put it out
I’m gonna let it shine
Cause when you curse the darkness
You block the light
If you join the battle
You’ve lost the fight
