Make It In America
Cast Of Victorious Lyrics

Got a one ticket down a two-way street
I am taking a single ticket down a street that goes both ways.

Got the wind in my hair and there's dust on my feet
I feel the wind blowing through my hair and my feet are dusty from walking.

I'm just trying to make it in America
I am attempting to achieve success in America.

Only thing to my name is in old t-shirt
The only item I have that belongs to me is an old t-shirt.

Faded 1985 from the Stones concert
The shirt is so old that it has a faded print from a 1985 concert by The Rolling Stones.

And I'm dying to make it in America
I am eager and determined to succeed in America.

And I'm singing the words to my favorite song
I am singing along to the lyrics of my favorite song.

With the rag top down and my glasses on
As I am driving, the convertible roof of my car is down and I am wearing sunglasses.

And I'm driving straight through America
I am travelling across America without any detours.

I wanna taste the sun
I desire to experience the warmth of the sun on my skin.

Cause baby I'm born to run
I am destined to run and constantly stay in motion.

I gotta feeling that I'm not the only one
I believe that there are other people who share the same aspirations as I do.

And I, I wanna show some skin
I want to be free and expose my skin.

Yeah, baby I need the ocean
I crave the vastness and openness of the ocean.

And you can't stop me now I've got my heart in motion
I am unstoppable now because I am determined to succeed.

And I wanna make it in America
I aspire to achieve success in America.

Make it in America
I want to succeed in America.

I can see my stars sunset and vine
I can envision myself achieving fame and success in Hollywood.

Gonna carve my name in the Hollywood sign
I will make a name for myself and leave a mark on Hollywood.

Yeah, I gotta, gotta make it in America
I absolutely need to achieve success in America.

See me wearing a smile even if I'm broke
I will remain happy and positive even if I have no money.

I'll be singing the words from a song I wrote
I will sing lyrics from songs that I have written.

And I called it make it in America
I have written a song titled 'Make It In America'.

I can feel the sweat dripping down my face
I can physically sense sweat falling down my face due to working hard.

I can hear my heart as it starts to race
I can hear my heart beating faster as I exert myself.

And sometimes it's worth such a lonely place
The tough journey to success can be very lonely but it can also be worthwhile.

If a just push on I know that
If I continue to persevere, I know that I will eventually succeed.
