Made It

(الألبوم: The Compass Project - East Album - 2023)

Two small town kids running wild, flipping laps, burning gas, nothing better to do
Two lives, of the sides of the tracks
Falling fast, my family wanted nothing to do with you
Like a backroad Romeo and Juliet
Couldn't stop my heart from beating outta my chest
They knew better but we knew best

We might as well have come from different planets
Yeah, nothing 'bout us really adds up
We were pulled together, just like magnets
When everyone was tryna break us up

Girl, we never should've made it
I hate to say it but it's true
Every card was stacked against us
Didn't think we'd make it through
But look what fate did
Showed everybody what we knew
All along, our love was strong, they couldn't break it
Yeah, girl, we made it

Yeah, we made it

Nineteen, two jobs, big city, no money, rent due, didn't have a thing
So, I called a guy, got a gig, made a deal
Spent every last dime on a diamond ring
Two crazy kids taking on the world
Diving in the deep end, going headfirst
When everybody said we'd never work

We cried, we fought, and oh my God, we struggled
But we never gave up or caved in

When we never should've made it
I hate to say it but it's true
Every card was stacked against us
Didn't think we'd make it through
But look what fate did
Showed everybody what we knew
All along, our love was strong, they couldn't break it
Yeah, girl, we made it

Yeah, we made it

One day, when we're old and gray
Kids moved away, I can proudly say that
"I would do it all over again"
The valleys, the mountains, the highs and the lows
The hell we survived, now, everyone knows
Exactly where we stand

When we never should've made it
I hate to say it but it's true
Every card was stacked against us
But somehow we make it through
Now, look what fate did
Showed everybody what we knew
All along, our love was strong, they couldn't break it
Yeah, girl, we made it

Yeah, we made it
Well, girl, we made it
Yeah, we made it
