Only What You Make Of It Lyrics

You're like everybody else Gotta deal with what you're dealt You choose the story that you tell Blame the world or blame yourself Sometimes life comes at you hard And it's easy to let it drag you down
Yeah, I get it, it's a mess It's a struggle, it's a test But can you find a place to rest In a house of bitterness? Just 'cause it ain't what you planned Don't mean it ain't what it oughta be
'Cause it's only what you make of it Yeah, it's only what you make of it Yeah, it's only what you make of it And you make it so hard on yourself
What you do and what you won't What you will and what you don't What you take and you give up What you're risking when you love
Bet you where you're looking from If you walk or if you run You take the long way there
'Cause it's only what you make of it Yeah, it's only what you make of it Yeah, it's only what you make of it And you make it so hard on yourself
You go looking for the darker side of anything You know you're gonna find it You can hold on to it till it takes you under Or you can let it go, oh, let it go
No, it ain't all your fault No, it isn't right It ain't always fair
But it's only what you make of it Yeah, it's only what you make of it Yeah, it's only what you make of it And you make it so hard on yourself You make it hard
It's only what you make of it It's only what you make of it It's only what you make of it Only what you make of it Yeah, it’s only what you make of it Only what you make of it
It's only what you make of it Only what you make of it It's only what you make of it Only what you make of it
