There are times in life, so hard to bear.
But new chances still around somewhere.
Though the world seems so big and yourself so small,
you can find your strength, you can face it all.
We are on our way and the way is long.
You are not alone, together we are strong.
We have come so far, we have made it through.
I know we can make it – together, me and you!
[A]
This is the time and this is who we are!
Together we stand, together we’ll go far!
[Chorus]
We can make it – together, if we try!
I know that we can make it – together, if we try!
We are on our way – together.
We are growing strong – together.
We can make it – together, if we try, together, if we try!
We must play the game and live our lives,
overcome the wars, the quarrels and strives.
Sometimes easy to say, sometimes hard to do,
but we’ll start today, together, me and you!
[B]
So raise your hands – (Hands up!) – if you do believe it!
Get your hands up – (Hands up!) – if you do believe it!
Keep your eyes
on the prize! (on the prize!)
We can make it – together, if we try!
I know that we can make it – together, if we try!
We are on our way – together.
We are growing strong – together.
We can make it – together, if we try, together, if we try!
[C]
Yes, I will stand by you – we’ll make it!
And you will stand by me – we’ll make it!
Keep your eyes
on the prize! (on the prize!)
We can make it…
