When the boys light up, light upWhen the boys light up, light upWhen the boys light up, light upBack and forth like a daytime dramaUp and down like a yo-yo mamaSay there's gonna be days like this'Cause light and dark don't coexistHow you gonna see through this fog?How you gonna get back on course?You ain't never gonna feel the forceIf you don't connect to a power source'Cause you been swapping out day for nightBut you see a lamp light burning brightIf you get your flip-flops off the porchWe're passing you the torchWhen the boys light up, you knowWho gets the praise who owns the showWhen the boys light up, it's onWe ain't stopping till we're doneWe ain't nothing but the conduitsHe's got the power, He'll flip the switchLeaving the dark behindLight up and let it shineWhen the boys light up, light upWhen the boys light up, light upI was feeling all overcomeHad a faith gone dim and then someGotta call from a band of brothersTurn the mic on, flash the NikonsAll the doubters, I heard 'em sayNow the band's gonna fade awayBut the boys are back for a second actNo excuses, we're lighting fusesYou're in the dawn of your finest hourSo get wired to the highest powerIf you're down pick any sightGet ready to igniteWhen the boys light up, you knowWho gets the praise who owns the showWhen the boys light up, it's onWe ain't stopping till we're doneIf we ain't nothing but the conduitsHe's got the power, He'll flip the switchLeaving the dark behindLight up and let it shineWhen we walk in His footstepsIt's a brighter dayWhen we follow His wordHe lights the wayWhen we lift up His banner and raise it highWe light up the skyWhen the boys light up, light upWhen the boys light up, light upWhen the boys light up, you knowWho gets the praise who owns the showWhen the boys light up, it's onWe ain't stopping 'till we're doneWe ain't nothing but the conduitsHe's got the power, He'll flip the switchLeaving the dark behindWhen the boys light up, you knowWho gets the praise who owns the showWhen the boys light up, it's onWe ain't stopping 'till we're doneWe ain't nothing but the conduitsHe's got the power, He'll flip the switchLeaving the dark behindLight up and let it shine
