Not more than three short years agoI was abandoned and aloneWithout a penny to my nameSo very young and so afraidNo proper shoes upon my feetSometimes I couldn't even eatI often cried myself to sleep
But still I had to keep on goingNever knowing if I could take itIf I would make it through the nightI held on to my faith, I struggled and I prayedAnd now I've found my way
If you believe in yourself enoughAnd know what you wantYou're gonna make it happenMake it happenAnd if you get down on your knees at nightAnd pray to the LordHe's gonna make it happenMake it happenYou're gonna make it happen, oh, yeah
I know life can be so toughAnd you feel like giving upBut you must be strongBaby, just hold onYou'll never find the answersIf you throw your life awayI used to feel the way you do
Still I had to keep on goingNever knowing if I could take itIf I would make it through the nightI held on to my faith, I struggled and I prayedAnd now I've finally found my way
If you believe in yourself enoughAnd know what you wantYou're gonna make it happenMake it happenYou're gonna make it happenAnd if you get down on your knees at nightAnd pray to the LordHe's gonna make it happenMake it happen
If you believe in yourself enoughAnd know what you wantYou're gonna make it happenMake it happen, make it happenAnd if you get down on your knees at nightAnd pray to the LordHe's gonna make it happenMake it happen

Oh-oh, oh, make it through the nightI held on to my faithI struggled and I prayedAnd finally found a way
