Little Light

Little Light 
Am laying here in this dark room dreaming of my bright future From where I am,
the light is Deem to shine throughout the night skies
It sees my closed eye illusion
Little light, little light in the dark, let me shine Little light, 
little light in the sky for you know who am I 
I see in private what ought to be 
But my existence oppresses me 
Little light, little light among the black you are white 
I enlightened my thoughts with knowledge of the wise 
But yet Little light, little light extract me from the blind 
I was engulfed by darkness for I had no sight 
Little light, little light you gave me power to fight 
Little light, little light you were the hope in me that never died.
