    A miracle of believing
    *
    Never let the sun 
    goes down on you
    The dark is more scary when 
    alone in its tunnels of sins 
    Evil is next to you every time

    Light - a beam of hope
    Light - a resurrection of soul
    Light - a way home for lost ships
    Light - needs awaken eyes to burn

    Oppressed mind rises on dusty streets
    Townships of ghettos bears fruits
    With the nectar of presidency at times
    Where there's a light there's a way

    Crossed, I wasn't born 
    with the silver spoon
    I was born on the other 
    side of the fence looking in

    Looking in, other kids 
    were whiter than I was
    Enjoying all kinds of privileges, 
    that almost burned out my light

    A miracle of believing in me
    Came with the light of success
    The candle of hope breathed life into me
    A miracle of believing has no color
