lyrics

When Will I Make It

Imagine being free
Wonder what life is gonna be like if I
Get myself out of this room

Would the light stay if I just
Threw my fears away would I be
On my way up sometime soon

I can see the shimmering light in the distance
I can hear the good times so clear far from here

Dark clouds I’m standin under
Slick rain and roarin thunder
Hard times will make you wonder
How long to fight it

High hills put me on hold
Half of my story untold
The cards I’m playing all fold
When will I make it
When will I make it
When will I make it over

I can see myself a few more years under my belt
Remembering how I got over the hill
And maybe looking back I will see
The train was off the tracks and I’ve got
So much more work to do still

I can see the shimmering light in the distance
I can hear the good times so clear far from here

Dark clouds I’m standin under
Slick rain and roarin thunder
Hard times will make you wonder
How long to fight it

High hills put me on hold
Half of my story untold
The cards I’m playing all fold
When will I make it
When will I make it
When will I make it over

If you haven’t found the right way to go
And you have to tell yourself
How to win this fight
You’ve got higher hills to climb
But the highest hill won’t stop a dream from climbin’
And no matter what you’re still wonderin’

When will I make it
When will I make it
When will I make it over
