Diamond In The Sun
Now I've been tryna keep it down
And I know this world can be uptight
I get sideways looks everywhere I go
Well, if following my heart is wrong
I don't want to be right
See I'm a wildfire but all I do is glow
And in my heart I got a marching band
And a beating drum singing
You've been quiet for much too long
And the tensions rise and I'm 'bout to blow
I can't stay in the box you made for me, no, no
Can't hold it in no more
I can't bite my tongue
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that must be sung
I can't hold it in no more
My time has come
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond in the sun
Shimmy-shimmy shine with me now
Hey
Woo-ooh
I said "Hey"
Woo-ooh
Shimmy-shimmy shine with me now
Hey
Woo-ooh
I said 'Hey'
Woo-ooh (hey)
So world you best get ready
There is no one quite like me
No copies of my soul that I have seen
And I'm on this earth for something
And that something is unique
Falling in line is not the kind I wanna be
'Cause in my heart I got a marching band
And a beating drum singing
You've been quiet for much too long
And the tensions rise and I'm 'bout to blow
I can't stay in the box you made for me, no, no
I can't hold it in, no more
I can't bite my tongue
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that must be sung
I can't hold it in, no more
My time has come
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond in the sun
Shimmy-shimmy shine with me now
Hey
Woo-ooh
I said "Hey"
Woo-ooh
Shimmy-shimmy shine with me now
Hey
Woo-ooh
I said "Hey"
Woo-ooh
So I'ma shine
Oh, I'ma shine on through
Whether you like my shine or not
At least it's true
I can't hold it in, no more
Can't bite my tongue
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that must be sung
I can't hold it in, no more
My time has come
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond in the sun
I can't hold it in, no more
Just havin' fun
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that must be sung
I can't hold it in, no more
My time has come
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond in the sun
Shimmy-shimmy shine with me now
Hey
Woo-ooh
I said "Hey"
Woo-ooh
Shimmy-shimmy shine with me now
Hey
Woo-ooh
I said "Hey"
Woo-ooh
And I know this world can be uptight
I get sideways looks everywhere I go
Well, if following my heart is wrong

See I'm a wildfire but all I do is glow
And in my heart I got a marching band
And a beating drum singing
You've been quiet for much too long
And the tensions rise and I'm 'bout to blow

I can't bite my tongue
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that must be sung
I can't hold it in no more

Shimmy-shimmy shine with me now
