Make It Last Lyrics by Alex Angelo

2025

[Verse]
At seventeen, I got my first paycheck to cash
Wasn't much, but it was more than I ever had
It was burning a hole in my pocket
Dad said, "Don't spend it just 'cause you got it."
It took every ounce of will for me to make it last
And no dog teaching me new tricks ever made much sense
But I've been so hard-headed on learning the hard way ever since he said:

[Chorus]
You could be the first to make a plan, but understand that it might change
You can get the truck to match the house; somebody еlse'll change the paint
Don't think you ain't on borrowеd time 'cause you only get one go at life
Pump the brakes before He takes you back
And if you're losin' track of days, you're goin' way too fast
'Cause it ain't a race to heaven, so I hope you make it last

[Verse]
At twenty-three, I heard the first "I love you" back
I never felt a feeling quite like that
Day one of forever with her
Momma told me to take a picture to make it last
Now, that's the only thing left of you I have

[Chorus]
And you could be the first to make a plan, but understand that it might change
You can get the truck to match the house; somebody else'll change the paint
Don't think you ain't on borrowed time 'cause you only get one go at life
Pump the brakes before He takes you back
And if you're losin' track of days, you're goin' way too fast
'Cause it ain't a race to heaven, so I hope you make it last

[Bridge]
I hope you don't beat your buddies to those gates
But if you do, there's no room for regrets in that suitcase

[Chorus]
And you could be the first to make a plan, but understand that it might change
You can get the truck to match the house; somebody else'll change the paint
Don't think you ain't on borrowed time 'cause you only get one go at life
Pump the brakes before He takes you back
And if you're losin' track of days, you're goin' way too fast
'Cause it ain't a race to heaven, so I hope you make it last
