Everybody's trying to tell me what to do
It's my life and I'm the man
Who are they to try to pass advice
About my life?
Not like they don't understand

So if I make the wrong decisions
As I go
It's my fault and I'm to blame
You thank God, you think you see the light
And I don't
It won't make me feel ashamed

I'mma tell you why

I'm gonna make it after all
I'm too strong to make a fall
Determination's on my side
I'm standing tall with pride

I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it)
I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it)
I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it)
I'm gonna make it

So if I make the wrong decisions
As I go
It's my fault and I'm to blame
You thank God, you think you see the light
And I don't
It won't make me feel ashamed

I'mma tell you why

I'm gonna make it after all
I'm too strong to make a fall
Determination's on my side
I'm standing tall with pride

I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it)
I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it)
I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it)
I'm gonna make it

Hey

Hey
I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it, ooh)
I'm gonna make it after all

I'm gonna make it after all
I'm too strong to make a fall
Determination's on my side
I'm standing tall with pride

I'm gonna make it after all
I'm too strong to make a fall
Determination's on my side
I'm standing tall with pride

I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it)
I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it)
I'm gonna make it
(I'm gonna make it)
I'm gonna make it
