Discover the story of the song > Make It – Aerosmith

This song is about staying positive and not letting life's challenges get you down. The protagonist is telling the listeners that when they face difficult situations or people that make them angry, they should think about what they need to do to achieve their dreams. They should focus on making their dreams a reality, rather than letting these challenges break them. The protagonist reminds everyone that history repeats itself and others have faced similar challenges, so they need to think quickly and figure out how to make their dreams last. They emphasize that if they let the challenges break them, they will feel like the whole world is falling apart.

They emphasize that they will eventually overcome these challenges and have better times if they keep themselves together and don't let the sadness (the blues) affect them. They remind everyone that they have nothing to lose and by staying positive and focusing on their dreams, they will eventually succeed.
