lyrics

Be The Light
By Bayou City Comeback Chorus featuring Nick Connors
Music and Lyrics By Kam Franklin

Chorus
How am I supposed to be the light
When I can’t breathe at night?
How am I supposed to see the light when I can’t even sleep at night?

Verse 1
We all want a clear view
A grand escape from today, but
Everything that happens makes me feel like things have gone astray
I try ways to heal that won’t block how I feel
Nor my words or my thoughts cuz I lead with that real

All we’re seeking is peace while sleeping and equal opportunities without asking

Chorus
How am I supposed to be the light
When I can’t breathe at night?
How am I supposed to see the light when I can’t even sleep at night?

Verse 2
Don’t feel bad they held back a few thousand truths
We’ve got to refocus on saving our youth
Educate
Lead with love
We fall down, get back up
Only so much time
Won’t always be behind

All we’re seeking is peace while sleeping and equal opportunities without asking

Chorus
How am I supposed to be the light
When I can’t breathe at night?
How am I supposed to see the light when I can’t even sleep at night?

Chorus
