Lyrics : Make It Happen (Live At Live 8, Hyde Park, London, 2nd July 2005)

What's up everybody!
We're gonna try and make it happen for you tonight
Is that alright?

Not more than three short years ago
(I was abandoned and alone)
Without a penny to my name
(So very young and so afraid)
No proper shoes upon my feet
(Sometimes I couldn't even eat)
I often cried myself to sleep
(But still I had to keep on going)
Never knowing if I could take it
If I would make it through the night
I held on to my faith
I struggled and I prayed
And now I've found my way

If you believe in yourself enough
And know what you want
You're gonna make it happen
Make it happen, that's right
And if you get down on your knees at night
And pray to the Lord
He's gonna make it happen
Make it happen
