"What It Takes" lyrics

Sometimes that mirror ain't always fair to me
It doesn't see who I am
I'm on my way to who God wants me to be
That bigger plan ain't in my hands

If I could write a note to younger me
Line-by-line, here's what it would read

I'm worthy of a love that lasts a lifetime
And a smile that lights the world up like the sunshine
Happiness ain't found, it's created
And I've got what it takes to make it

I'm making friends that feel more like family
Making this little house my home
Ain't chasing spotlights, I'm chasing memories
Making this little life my own

I'm worthy of a love that lasts a lifetime
And a smile that lights the world up like the sunshine
Happiness ain't found, it's created
And I've got what it takes to make it

Through the ups and the downs
I'll make it work to all work out
Every dream that's ever seemed too far to chase it
Oh I've got what it takes to make it

I'm worthy of a love that lasts a lifetime
And a smile that lights the world up like the sunshine
Happiness ain't found, it's created
And I've got what it takes to make it

Oh. I've got what it takes to make it
