Make It Happen
Mel Holder Lyrics

Not more than three short years ago
It was only three years ago that I faced my toughest challenges, and now I'm in a much better place.

I was abandoned and alone
I didn't have anyone in my life to turn to and support me through the difficult times.

Without a penny to my name
I was broke and had no financial security whatsoever.

So very young and so afraid
Despite being young, I felt scared and uncertain about my future.

No proper shoes upon my feet
There were times when I couldn't even afford to buy good shoes for myself.

Sometimes I couldn't even eat
There were days when I didn't have enough money to buy food and went hungry.

I often cried myself to sleep
My situation felt so overwhelming that I would often break down in tears at night.

But still I had to keep on going
Despite everything, I didn't give up and continued to persevere through the difficult times.

Never knowing if I could take it
There were moments when I doubted my ability to overcome my challenges.

If I would make it through the night
I never knew if I would be able to get through the toughest moments of each day.

I held on to my faith
In spite of everything, I believed in something greater than myself to guide me through.

I struggled and I prayed
I put in the effort and asked for guidance from a higher power to help me through my struggles.

And now I've found my way
Eventually, I was able to overcome my obstacles and find a path towards a better life.

If you believe in yourself enough and know what you want
To make your dreams come true, you need to have faith in yourself and clarity about your goals.

You're gonna make it happen (make it happen)
By putting in the effort, you have the power to achieve what you set out to do.

And if you get down on your knees at night
When things get really tough, it's important to reach out for support from a higher power.

And pray to the lord
Asking for guidance and support from a higher power can help give you the strength you need to persevere.

He's gonna make it happen (make it happen)
Believing in a higher power can help open up new opportunities and avenues to make your dreams come true.

I know life can be so tough
Life is never simple, and there will certainly be obstacles and challenges along the way towards your dreams.

And you feel like giving up
When things get tough, it's natural to feel like throwing in the towel and giving up.

But you must be strong
At times like these, it's important to hold on and stay strong in the face of adversity.

Baby just hold on
Even when things feel impossible, holding on can give you the extra time you need to make things work out.

You'll never find the answers
If you give up, you'll never be able to find the answers to the obstacles that stand between you and your dreams.

If you throw your life away
Giving up when the going gets tough is like wasting your life away instead of fighting for what you really want.

I used to feel the way you do
I understand that it's hard to deal with the tough moments, because I've been there too.

Still I have to keep going
Even though I've come a long way, there are still challenges ahead that I need to overcome.

I once was lost
There was a time when I didn't know how to get out of the difficult situation that I faced.

But now I'm found
Despite the obstacles, I was eventually able to find a path forward that led me towards a better life.

I got my feet on solid ground
Now that I've found a better place, I feel more stable and comfortable in my life.

Thank you lord
I'm grateful to a higher power for providing the support and the strength that helped me through the tough times.

If you believe within your soul
To make your dreams come true, you need to have a deep sense that it's possible within your core.

Just hold on tight and don't let go
Through the ups and the downs of life, it's important to hold on tight to your dreams and never let them slip away.

You can make it happen (make it happen)
By holding on tight and putting in the effort, you have the power to make your dreams come true.
