Lyrics Mario Winans

Mario Winans

How I Made It

Yeah, this song right here

Is about a young man

Who's endured a lot of twists and turns in his life

Cause he always kept his head up, stayed focused

This man's name is Mario Winans, listen

What makes you think I can't make it?

Put me to the test, I'll take it

I've been through more trials

But I've overcome all of them

And I've never been one for faking

I kept on moving and shaking

And that's how I made it

I've seen it all

But I never let no one

Tell me it's right, when it's wrong

Cause I heard it all before

And it gives me a reason to fight for

A right for, to do what I gotta do

All of my life

I was told that you had to go through

Just to get where you want

And if you come across a storm

You just gotta keep holding on, and stay strong

And do what you gotta do

Hey yo I came from the bottom, worked my way up

Ran wit big dudes, had to get my weight up

Now my cake up, now it's lights, cameras, make up

Trips to Jacob, foreign countries

Reminisce of times when we all was hungry

Now I made it, and all y'all niggaz can hate it

Seeing that I sound like Mase and

Knowning that I came from the basement

Did my own thing, so face it

Now they coming wit cases, now wit this hand I'm racist

I'm so close I can taste it

Sometimes I just wanna grab toast and take it

But I'm a keep moving and shaking

Stay true to my faith and

I ain't worried about you, I'm a make it (I'm a make it)
