We're Gonna Make It
LL Cool J

(feat. Mary Mary)


[Mary Mary:]

I know the Lord, will make a way

He will make a way, yessssssss he will

Yessssss, he willlllll


Ohhh, I do believe that we will make it

Yeahhh, yeahhh, yeahhh, yeahhhh


[Ll Cool J:]

Uhh uhh

I was at rock bottom, my whole life was mo' problems

Reincarnation of a slave pickin cotton

Stress beamin down like the sun I felt rotten

To the core, was at war, cause the enemy is plottin

I hear him knockin, sayin that we got him

Hot like solar, he wanna burn my soul up

World on my shoulders but I roll back ya boulders

Words have a funny way of comin back to scold ya

Watch what come out of your mouth, you crack a molar

I tried to told ya, hehehe

Enemies gunnin, true believers ain't runnin

Or duckin, we ain't scared of nuttin, ya feel me?

They wanna test me and press my buttons, oh really?

Allow Uncle L to hip y'all to somethin, uhh, uhh

Yeah, uhh, check it out

There's a living power, make a man out a coward

Rebuild your strength like the new Trade Towers

I thought that I was over, my life got devoured

Now I'm on top and I pray for all the doubters

Time to shout it, sing it louder


[Chorus - Mary Mary:]

Yeahhhhh, we're gonna make it

We're gonna make it (we're gonna make it)

Thank God we made it (yeahhhhhhhhhhh)

And I mean it, yeah yeah, oh yeah


[Ll Cool J:]

I was feelin like my whole world was spinnin and spillin

On the ground and that God wasn't willin

It seemed like the only ones ballin was the villains

Dollar signs in they eyes, lyin to our chill'un

I wanna kill 'em, I'd rather God hit 'em

They sellin venom and we buyin it like denim

These world wide webs they weave, we caught in 'em

Old folks is dyin and ceo's skimmin

The bat's in your hand and this is the 9th inning

Keep your eyes on the ball when you swingin

Don't be confused, don't be fooled by the wind-up

Start switchin your position, make your mind up

Pull your bootstraps tight, get your grind up

Get your life lined up before time's up

Yo, yo, you know what?

Take ten percent of that, dough you tryin to stack

Send it up to God, I guarantee he send it back

Multiply it by a hundred times, y'all remember that

That's just a little jewel to get the monkey off your back

Uhh, yeah, sing it out now


[Chorus with ad libs]


[Ll Cool J:]

In the darkest valley, through the loneliest alley

Never give up, press on through the storm

Weepin man fall, for the night seem long

But if you stand strong joy come within the morn'

And it goes, on and on and on and on and on and-ah

I know it feels like your back's to the wall

Who's sittin in the crib, and you don't know who to call

(Jesus!) Hangin on a tight rope, fingers slippin off

But you ain't by yourself dawg, we all been lost

Stay on your course, carry your cross

Ain't no stoppin, got to keep it poppin

You want it, you can get it, believe me the king did it

Nothin gonna hold you back, there's no limits

I'm sent to bring truth to rap, not gimmicks

And I'm not finished, man listen

Here's the moral to the thesis, y'all cats need Jesus

He put your life back together, pick up the pieces

Word to the masses, I heard God asked us

For less fake rappers, and more real pastors

Uh-huh, uh-huh, so hereafter


[Chorus 2x with ad libs]


[Mary Mary + (Ll):]

We made it, we made it

Through the storm and rain, yeahhhhhhh

You can make it, yes you can

You can make it, you got me

I know you can, I know you can

I know you can, yessssss, yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I do believe we'll make it (Hallelujah!)

(Glory! Glory!)
