Make It Happen - Mariah Carey

Lyrics by：Robert Cliv

Composed by：Walter Afan

Not more than three short years ago

I was abandoned and alone

Without 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

If you believe in yourself enough

And know what you want

You're gonna make it happen make it happen

And if you get down on your knees at night

And pray to the Lord

He's gonna make it happen make it happen

You're gonna make it happen oh yeah

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

If you believe in yourself enough

And know what you want

You're gonna make it happen make it happen

And if you get down on your knees at night

And pray to the Lord

He's gonna make it happen make it happen

If you believe in yourself enough

And know what you want

You're gonna make it happen make it happen

And if you get down on your knees at night

And pray to the Lord

He's gonna make it happen make it happen

Make it happen

Oh yeah

Make it

You're gonna make it

Make it

Oh baby

Oh oh-oh-oh

Oh make it through the night

I held on to my faith

I struggled and I prayed

And finally found my way

If you believe in yourself enough

And know what you want

You're gonna make it happen make it happen

And if you get down on your knees at night

And pray to the Lord

He's gonna make it happen make it happen

If you believe in yourself enough

And know what you want

You're gonna make it happen make it happen

And if you get down on your knees at night

And pray to the Lord

He's gonna make it happen make it happen

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

Yeah

You can make it

Make it happen

Gonna make it

Gonna make it

You're gonna make it

If you believe in yourself enough

And know what you want

You're gonna make it happen make it happen

And if you get down on your knees at night

And pray to the Lord

He's gonna make it happen make it happen

If you believe in yourself enough

And know what you want

You're gonna make it happen make it happen

And if you get down on your knees at night

And pray to the Lord

He's gonna make it happen make it happen
