VS1:

Wakin up in the morning to hit the books again
Another final warning, I gotta turn it in
My friends would say it's just like me, to find myself in a jam
But why not adapt the system, to who I really am
It's just the way it is, don't see it changing
It all comes down to how I'm gonna make it happen

chorus

When you hit the limit, and losing time on things that you gotta do
You gotta make it work
When you're stepping in it, and find you're holding on just to get through
You gotta make it work
Hangin by a thread is not exactly right where you wanna be
You gotta make it work
If you're gonna save the day, I only know of one way
You gotta make it work

VS2:

It really doesn't matter, who I'm with, where I am
I can always find the ladder, out of the hole again
You'd think I'm like a chameleon, just the reverse you see
Instead of me fitting in with everything else, I make everything fit with me
It's just the way it is, don't see it changing
It all comes down to how I'm gonna make it happen
