Lyrics for "You Can Make it Happen" (CD to follow)
MY NAME IS CHRIS YOUNG, I ATTENDED SAN DIEGO HIGH CLASS OF '07
AND I JUST WANNA CONGRATULATE YOU ON YOUR SUCCESS IN SCIENCE
I WANT TO GIVE A SHOUTOUT TO EVERYONE AT I.S.
WHO REALLY MADE ME SEE THE POSSIBILITIES...
SOMETIMES YOU'RE YOUNG AND YOU CANT FULLY APPRECIATE SOMETHING RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU...
The same ones who thought they knew it all had to see
Popularity can't help you escape reality
And Friends were the glue, connecting the youth
To the very self, so we all find the truth
And there's a progression when they focus on you
And the time is now, I hope it's on you
I took a yellow bus that attracted like a magnet
Put me in the upperclassmen type classes
Just Freshman in biology
Ms.Berman acknowledged me
said, "You'll be a genius see"
And I didn't believe that
Cuz I ain't get the "As"
It wasn't fresh
Up In I.S, all I got was an F
Yep!
And then we had to feel harder and rough
Cuz its clear, I can't compare myself to my peers
Then I grew up every year
Now my mind steers
JUST LISTEN, JUST DEVELOP A VISION
AND IT, will happen
AND IT, will happen
See I told you first
School is the mice race
And the rat race is happening on earth
You gotta run hardest first
Across the universe
(I had some struggles in high school, but it's like...making it through all that is a big deal. Then you see, man if this could be mine? Maybe the world is mine?)
These are the words that I want you to hear
When it's hard to choose love over fear
I mean, man, we come from different type of homes
Different type of skin tones
But hey, we could fly from the same sky
Can't you listen when you giving high fives
To the people that's accepted into college why
I GOT INTO UC DAVIS
I GOT INTO UC IRVINE
I remember I ain't get none of the typical design
But I knew I would see
There was a educated mind that was made in me
And when your visions can become a reality
You'll be an adult, and you'll be smiling--
Like man, I manifested, addressed it man I'm doing it clear
Love yourself and school can't give you the fear
Just a lesson
And in life when your heart feels broken,
Keep your ears washed and keep your eyes open to: THE UNIVERSE
Feel me?
Cuz anything's possible y'all.
Keep it open to the universe
And Keep progressin
Stay intelligent
And keep reading
And keep learning
And keep earning
More
You can glow
You can do anything nothing is impossible, matter of fact
You can do anything nothing is impossible, matter of fact
You can do anything nothing is impossible
You were born divine, your spirit is unstoppable
Every obstacle is just a test
Digress, then you'll see through percepts
Progress is a process
Take a second, don't be hatin
Just be waiting, just be waitin
Yeah, you never learned that thing called Patience
Activity and action are two different things
Break the hand of the slapping queen just to become a queen
Tell her no, I can't take the evil that you give to me
Tell her yes, positivity over the negativity
Say, I inhale when I'm mad just to breathe and realize all I need is me
The Universe will provide.
My name is Chris Young, I went to San Diego High School just like you did, and just like other people went to other schools.
And I want you to know I am a representation and YOU are a representation of right now. And right now, the World is yours.
I'm a big fan that graduated high school couple years ago and this is perfect just absolutely perfect. Take this advice and every advice Chris young has to offer, he speaks the truth
