Make It Happen — текст песни (Mariah Carey)

Not more than three short years ago
I was abandoned and alone
With not a penny to my name
So very young and so afraid
No proper shoes upon my feet
Sometimes, I couldn`t even eat
I often cried myself to sleep

But, still, I had to keep on going
Never knowing
If I could take it
If I would make it through the night
I held on to my faith
I struggled and I prayed
And, now, I`ve found my way

(Chorus:)
If you believe in yourself enough
And know what you want
You`re gonna make it happen
Make it happen
And, if you get on your knees at night
And pray to the Lord
He`s gonna make it happen
Make it happen

I know life can be so tough
And you feel like giving up
But you must be strong
Baby, just hold on
You`ll never find the answers
If you throw your life away
I used to feel the way you do

Still, I had to keep on going
Never knowing
If I could take it
If I would make it through the night
I held on to my faith
I struggled and I prayed
And, now, I`ve finally found my way

(Repeat chorus)

(Bridge:)
I once was lost; but, now, I`m found
I got my feet on solid ground
Thank You, Lord
If you believe within your soul
Just hold on tight and don`t let go
You can make it
(Make it happen)

You`re gonna make it happen
Gonna make it
Gonna make it
Gonna make it

(Repeat chorus 3x)
