I'm gonna make it this time
I'm gonna make it
Make it, this time

When the curtain goes up
And the audience sits down
I will be singing and wearing my crown
Because I'm gonna make it
I'm gonna make it
I'm gonna make it this time

I've got a lot to give
I've got so much of myself to give
And as long as I live, I have to keep on giving

Because I'm gonna make it
I've told myself before, but I mean it this time
I'm gonna make it
Got to, to, to, to
Make it, make it
This, this, this time

When the curtain goes up
And the audience sits down
I will be standing on a mountaintop, looking down
And wearing a crown

With a little help from my friends, I am gonna make it
I've told myself before, but I mean it this time
I'm gonna make it

Got to, to, to, to
Make it
This time, time

I've paid my dues
And I know I qualify, sanctify, bonafide
I've been trying so damn long
And making so many
And making so many
Hard years

Only the strong shall survive
And the weak shall fade by the wayside
They say there is no rest for the weary
But you have to be strong to survive this
You are never supposed to give up
You are never supposed to give up
Keep on struggling
Make it, make it
Make it to the mountain top
Make it to the mountain top
Make it to the mountain top
