i swear artist always sound the best when they aint got shit
***** yeah cause when they have it, it's like "fuck it, i got it already"
+dirtyplaya OHHHH MY GOSH! yesssssss bruh, then when they make it, it's like "ehhh i ain't gotta try so hard now"
We were 18yo with nothing when we heard this song and played it over and over. Both had terrible home lives. We always stuck together and I say we because we’re now married for 10 years with 2 beautiful girls and just bought a home. I get teary eyed every time I hear this song. Got us though ❤
Tmaugo you are going home and the first one is the only way you were in my friend request for the same number kg so I have ever seen a chance to work with your friends with me fkhoh fig fkhoh and then we have to get ready to do the other one and the other one is my favorite store in the morning anwof am going to work for a while back to the first one in my account was the other two and then get the other side and the other side of life is good and then we have been with them and the first one in your phone number and then you have left and it doesn't have the Idaho State drive to work for a while to get ready for the day and then we have been good for the first time in my life and then get the other side and then o years old and the other one is the only one that has
You were 18, I was 12/13! You old! 😂 We were evacuating New Orleans for Hurricane Katrina 🌀. And yup...this song helped us "make it"!
Gerald Levert in the barbershop..rest in peace❤ take me back!!
If you see Gerald Levert in a young person's video you know the song is good
This album was Trey's 'Get rich or die tryin'. The hunger, passion, lyrics, vocals were on point. Not saying Trey hasn't delivered quality music since, but if I had to choose a Trey album to keep for life. It would be this one, with Trey Day a close second.
I Gotta Make It is Trey Songz's best album because Trey was singing about different subject matters like From A Woman's Hand singing about black fathers absent from their sons life, Set Of Wings singing about his fallen friend Mr. Hill, Just Gotta Make It singing about getting out the hood and living a better life and he was also singing about relationships and love, after l Gotta Make It and Trey Day and and the death of the Cornrow Braids, Trey's music went downhill and he started singing all about Sex, l like the old Trey Songz's music better because he sings the soul from his heart.
I agree 1000 percent. I brought two CDs when this album came out and still got them. This is one of my fav albums hands down
Man! I remember when they introduced him as a new artist and premiered this on 106th and Park, when the show was actually good. #timeflies
Blue Art I remember that too. I used to Love 106 and Park and I just happened to tune in right when they premiered thia video. I have been a fan of his music ever since
R.I.P the great Gerald Levert🙏🏾
This wasn't just music ,this was AFFIRMATION. Keep going #2020
PERIOD. AND EVERYTHING I THINK SHIT GETTING HARDER I COME BACK TO THIS SONG!! FOR MYSELF, MY CHILDREN, MY FAMILY, AND THE WORLD!!!
This song is super duper underrated
For real it should still be playing in 2020 every, day 1 Nigga n Shorty can relate that as each other back from the jump through thick n thin, it's 2020 n whenever I'm having a bad day n want to chair up it's 1 of my go to songs, big up to Trigga n Twiss. Jamaica in the building 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yup but if no one never tells him they love this I'll tell it from the hilltops !! 💕💕💕💫🔥🔥🔥
@@jazzyjbutterfly4929 I'm a Jamaican I love it so much so thank to Trey Songz 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💯🔥👍
Smh. It was only like the hottest song when it dropped..lol smh the message was profound
2022 and still vibing 😎. Music that has a feeling will never go wrong. No matter what genre.👑👑 #rnb
The salary nashardi all I got is a dollar in the dream which is going roll with me roll I can get it and have his living good and you feel me oh but I ain't living here with me and taking the bus for somebody's going to kill him I got to turn it around hell as long as you're down and I know looking like today I know why
“ *Everything* I do, I do *for you* “
How can such a little line feel so damn profound. Anyone who love someone and working to make their combined situations better relates to this so much…
When you going through something and you need to be reminded to stay positive....just listen to this song and stay strong and keep going !!!!! ☺️

Best song of him ever. Period
+manon vandervelden I agree but I really like missing you, heart attack and cant help but wait. But this considering the first song I heard from him I always enjoy it.

I love the HD version i watch it everyday .... love it the song sounds even better . all the way from Nairobi .....🇰🇪😍🥰😘♥️♥️♥️t
This song makes me cry I play it over and over we need more off this song in r.n.b
This was my anthem, studying for the lsat exams. I made it mom, we made it mom, love you forever mom! Trey Songz, you took what I was feeling and memorialized it with a song! I am forever indebted to you trey!
That gotta be the best feeling in the world. Working some bs job, and you get a call from a label wanting to have a meeting with you about your music. I felt this song and visual
When he said see I tried the 9 to 5 and it just don't fit me....on my life I felt that at the age of 37!! LMAO
Man I always loved this song when I was younger but coming back to this song at 25 years old and really feeling the lyrics and the message hits different😩🔥 cause I’m definitely at the point in my life where jobs just don’t satisfy me. I’ve got bigger dreams
God Rest 🕊️🕊️😭🙏🏽🙏🏽@ArethaFranklinSoul😭😇💜💙💖💕❤️🧡💋But She Was The One/1 Too informed Trey That He Was Going too make it for sure God Used Aretha Franklin Too Encourage Trey Songz From The Very First/1ST Beginning Of Trey Music Career Aretha Told Him From Jump Yes You're Going too make it🏆🏆🏆🎗️🎖️🏅🙏🏽🙏🏽🔥🔥And Yes Trey Made It All Praises, Glory, & Honour Goes Too The Lord Jesus Christ AMEN!🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤😄😁😎🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽👏🏽
R.I.P. Gerald Levert
trey needs to make more songs like this instead of songs about sex all the time
Always good to see Petersburg in this video. Showing where he really came from. 804!
Rip levert. Seen this video a million times and didn’t realize he was in this video
"Gotta make it" and "Can't help but wait" are the only songs of Trey's that I can really relate to, "Gotta make it" is the most relatable to me.
R.i.p Gerald levert
2021 times are hard but this song let me know I’m not struggling alone WE GOT THIS YALL ❤️
this nigga really made it
Before Trey was problematic 😒
This song takes me back to 2005 every single time. Packed with memories and emotion. What a time it was. 😂
2020 we here , remember this premiering 106 & park
See it’s 2020 and I’m still vibing to this song as if it just came out! “Shortyyy all I got is a dollar and a dream is you gonna roll with me, see I tried the 9-5, but that just don’t fit me”! ...🤷🏽♀️
2021????
Damn I’m emotional as hell watching this video rn. Song came out when I was 12. Song has gotten me through so much over the years. And just always staying positive and believing. Fast forward, I have an amazing gf, a beautiful daughter, I have a great job. And all those years are finally over now I have a brand new Mercedes Benz. And just looking at this video and watching how things can change if you be patient and stay down. Now I don’t got holes in my clothes, don’t gotta be working these nickel and dime jobs. Don’t gotta ride the bus no more. And just thinking about where I was when I’d listen to this song to now. Just made me emotional af 😭😭
And to even add before I got this job I didn’t have a job for 8 months due to Covid. And just when I got home. Got a call with a job offer paying me $6 more than the job I had lost. God is real I promise you all
I remember seeing this for the first time, I've been a FAN EVER SINCE. twister killed his part 2019 always on
REPEAT 👍👍
IT'S CRAZY THAT MOST ARTIST MAKE THEIR BEST MUSIC WHEN THEIR GRINDING ONCE THEY HIT MAINSTREAM THEY SELL OUT AND ALL THEIR SHIT START SOUNDING THE SAME THIS SONG WAS MY SHIT I WAS IN THE 12TH GRADE DAMN TIME FLIES. I HOPE AUGUST ALSINA STAYS TRUE
Dedicated to my 4 babies 💕 their the reason I wake every day and hustle till I drop. "Lookin at u day after day ik I just gotta make it, just to see that smile on ur face" "to the top of the world me and my babies, yes Lord!! (my lil remix)🙌👐💓

I need more R&B like this
Still on my daily motivation playlist. Grind shine repeat
Listening in 2017. This song always transports me back to the summer of 2005 when i was 15. Still one of his best
Humble beginnings Trey was on something. I remember fucking with his early songs hard. Made it seem like you could actually make it out the hood if you could sang and had abs.
A good motivational song💯✌️🔥
I watch this young grow up to where he is today and Trey you made it !!!!!
One of my favorite songs by Trigga!
2021 this song still 🔥🔥🔥 those Twista lines are always sick,it's like the first time that i heard this song.
Man! These songs bring sooooooo many memories, good ones lol 😊
God I miss the early 2000's my early teenage years the feeling this song gives me wow priceless times the world will never be the same
This song is so inspirational… this is really my theme song in my life right now. Currently working on getting my real estate license at the moment. I’m just trying to provide my kids and family a good life. Working 9 to 5 jobs isn’t for me! I know Gods plan for me is greater than what I can imagine… I just gotta make it! ❤
It still hits a nerve
Can't believe this joint almost ten years old Trey has come along way man
TheChupi123 I posted this in December of 2015 so I was spot on with the date man
2021 November 25 we still here trying to make it and bumping to this jam 🔥 putting my everything into my goals and dreams and will not stop until we make it!! Peace and love ❤️
Best song ever

Classic ♥
Inspiring Song! love the beat, the mix, even Trey was at the beggining of his carrer, he had the big voice!
This is exactly how I been feeling lately I’m 32 years old married with two kids I’ve been working these dead end jobs they get me nowhere I can barely pay the rent Nd bills I got this goal Nd if I achieve it in a few months our whole lives can change I just feel like it has to happen I “just got to make it!”

El Do please look up tonetalks ADOS it will show you why you struggling brother understanding economics and certain laws and slavery put us behind because we never came together as a people and we never received with what we are really owed...
Still love this song ♥️♥️♥️
The year is 2005. I’m 11. My friend’s older sister is in love with some guy named trey songz. Fast forward to 2023, I’m 29 thanking her for putting us on lol
My 2023 time capsule, when I come back I will be a multi-millionaire! ⏳
My sister played this for my niece when she was just a newborn. We was living in the hood struggling then. That was 18 yrs ago. My sister purchased her 18yr old child that same child a Mercedes for her birthday this year. My niece got accepted into Harvard at 16 and we out the hood living good. She played this song for her while gifting her, her benz for her bday. Brought me to tearsssss!!!! I will forever love this song. It motivated us at a time we needed it! Miss the old Trey!
I used to listen this artist in 2012 that was the my beginning now my new favorites are #1 lil blurry, #2 pop smoke, #3 Bryson tiller thats the music I love now
This is actually a very beautiful song. I loved this when I was young lol.
Incredible song/video a classic masterpiece. Amazing he was only 19/20 when this dropped. Wish he stayed on this route of music but I guess it’s hard to write about things you’re not going through anymore $$$. This whole album was good
Just graduated CDL school😊😊 thanks Trey for the motivational words
I still wear my durag tucked. These Gen Zs can call me old all day idc
This song GOES!!! Whole debut album is a classic. Got damn!! And this is coming from a rap fan... Don't even fux wit the R&B like dat.
I will always be in love with this song. it's so motivational. He put his soul into this song. I love you Trey ❤
This song rite here is always.... The 90,@nd early 2000 music 🎶 was at it best
This song hits so different when you then went through some 🩷 2021 the year I fought for my life and forward to 2023 I made it cancer survivor!!! I AM💪 🎉🩷😊🙏
