Songtexte: Ashanti. The Declaration. Shine.

They'll try to make you feel
That you're not good enough
You feel so incomplete
Don't let them change you
Show this whole world that you were made to

Shine, they can't shut out your light
No matter how hard they try
They try but they never can win
'Cause they can't stop what's inside
They'll try to take you, try to break you down
Remember you were born to shine

Don't let them make you think
That you're not pretty enough, no, no, no, no
Your beauty runs so deep
So deep inside you, you know that's the reason why you

Shine, they can't shut out your light
No matter how hard they try
They try but they never can win
'Cause they can't stop what's inside
They'll try to take you, try to break you down
Remember you were born to shine

There's a fire inside of you
That they can never ever understand
Take their light and burn strong and bright and

Shine, they can't shut out your light
No matter how hard they try
They try but they never can win
'Cause they can't stop what's inside, no

They'll try to take you, try to break you down
Remember you were born to shine
They'll try to take you, try to break you down
Remember you were born to shine
They'll try to take you, try to break you down
Remember you were born, you were born to shine

You're born to shine
You're born to shine
Say you're born to shine

You're born to shine
You're born to shine
You're born to shine

You're born to, you're born to
Say you're born to
You're born to shine, shine and shine

You're born to, you're born to
You're born to
