Make it Happen (Caver Anthem)

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.
