[Intro: Background]
We're gonna make it, gonna make it, gonna make it, gonna make it
We're gonna make it, gonna make it, gonna make it, gonna make it

[Verse 1: Mariah Carey]
When you get caught in the rain
With nowhere to run
When you're distraught
And in pain without anyone
When you keep crying out to be saved
But nobody comes
And you feel so far away
That you just can't find your way home
You can get there alone, it's okay
Once you say

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & Background]
I can make it through the rain (Make it)
I can stand up once again
On my own and I know
That I'm strong enough to mend
And every time I feel afraid (Afraid)
I hold tighter to my faith
And I live one morе day
And I make it through the rain

[Post-Chorus: Background]
Make it, wе're gonna make it
Make it, make it through the rain
Make it, we're gonna make it
Make it, make it through the rain

[Verse 2: Mariah Carey]
And if you keep falling down
Don't you dare give in
You will arise safe and sound
So keep pressing on steadfastly
And you'll find what you need to prevail
Once you say

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & Background]
I can make it through the rain (Make it)
I can stand up once again
On my own and I know
That I'm strong enough to mend
And every time I feel afraid (Afraid)
I hold tighter to my faith
And I live one more day
And I make it through the rain

[Bridge: Mariah Carey & Background]
And when the wind blows (Wind blows)
And shadows grow close (Grow close)
Don't be afraid (Afraid), there's nothing you can't face
And should they tell you (Tell you)
You'll never pull through (Pull through)
Don't hesitate (Hesitate)
Stand tall and say (Stand tall and say)

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & Background]
I can make it through the rain (Make it)
I can stand up once again
On my own and I know
That I'm strong enough to mend
And every time I feel afraid (Afraid)
I hold tighter to my faith
And I live one more day
And I make it through the rain

[Outro: Mariah Carey]
I can make it through the rain
And stand up once again
And I live one more day
And I make it through the rain

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
