When I was young, I tried to build a paper plane, but

My head told me no

My parents sat me down and they tried to explain, that

I had some time to grow

But I stayed up all night until I got it right

And in the morning, I screamed, "hey, look, I made it"

When I was young, I tried to build a paper plane, but

My head told me no.

But I knew I was special and when I didn't believe

I'd remember the moments when my family's waiting for me

And if I had a dollar from the ones that didn't believe

I could sail away and live my life at sea.

'cause I made it

Yeah, damn, I made it

Oh, I made it

'cause I made it, yeah...

'cause I made it

Yeah, damn, I made it

Oh, I made it

Mmm, 'cause I made it.

Sometimes I think about why we do what we do, and

The world tells us no

These walls were made to break and I am breaking through

At times it's hard to show

And even though I'm scared, I know that I'm aware

That I'm exactly where I'm meant to be

So, when I think about why I do what I do

It's everything to me.

And I knew I was special and when I didn't believe

I'd remember the moment when my family's waiting for me

And if I had a dollar from the ones that didn't believe

I could sail away and live my life at sea, oh...

'cause I made it

Yeah, damn, I made it

Oh, I made it

'cause I made it, yeah...

'cause I made it

Yeah, damn, I made it

Oh, I made it

Mmm, 'cause I made it.

We made it, we made it, we made it, we made it

Out, we made it out, we made it out

We made it, we made it, we made it, we made it

Out, we made it out, we made it out.

'cause we made it

Yeah, damn, we made it

Oh, we made it

'cause we made it, yeah

'cause we made it

Yeah, damn, we made it

Oh, we made it

'cause we made it.
