I'll Make It On My Own - Cecil Lyde

(Cecil Orlando Lyde; J Stephens) 1981

Once a wise man said to me

Listen my son I will give you freedom

You can change your destiny

Shine the star you are meant to be

That's why 

I'll make it on my own

Even though I wrong the life alone

I'll make it on my own

Even though I wrong the life alone

I was so blind I could not see

I could not see the future there ahead on me

Love has brought me back from my hiding place

Now my world is grooving I gotta tell the human race

That 

I'll make it on my own

Even though I wrong the life alone

I'll make it on my own

Even though I wrong the life alone

(He's gonna make it, yeah)

(He's gonna make it, yeah)

(He's gonna make it on his own)

(He's gonna make it, yeah)

(He's gonna make it, yeah)

(He's gonna make it on his own) Oh oh 

I'll make it on my own

Even though I wrong the life alone, ooh ooh

I'll make it on my own

Even though I wrong the life alone

Loving may have

Far from me have

But God blessed good child gotting home

I'll gonna make it every night

I'm on my way

People can you hear me say
