“Years in the Making” by Arkells is a testament to the unbending determination and resilience required to achieve one’s dreams. The song encourages us to persevere, reminding us that success is not immediate but rather the product of hard work and dedication. Whenever I feel discouraged, this song serves as my motivation to keep pushing forward.
The musical arrangement and production of “Years in the Making” perfectly complement the lyrics. The energetic guitar riffs and driving drums create a powerful and anthemic sound. The blend of rock and pop elements showcases Arkells’ signature style, making this song an instant hit.

Lyrics
Feel it in my bones, it's down to the wire
It's more than a dream, it's more than desire
I can feel you holding your breath
And you don't know, no, what I'm gonna do next
Now it's been years in the making
And I'd do it over again
It's been years in the making
So turn the lights down low
Rolling up my sleeves
Right now I'm in my zone
Put your eyes on me
I got the scars to show it didn't come for free
It's been years in the making
So put your hands up high
Baby walk with me
I see it in your eyes, it's something you believe
You got the scars to show
It didn't come for free
It's been years in the making
Chasing down everything I'm feeling
I come in first, and I'm the last one leaving
And it's been years in the making
And I'd do it over again
It's been years in the making
So turn the lights down low
Rolling up my sleeves
Right now I'm in my zone
Put your eyes on me
I got the scars to show it didn't come for free
It's been years in the making
So turn the lights down low
Rolling up my sleeves
Right now I'm in my zone
Put your eyes on me
I got the scars to show it didn't come for free
It's been years in the making
So put your hands up high
Baby walk with me
I see it in your eyes, it's something you believe
You got the scars to show
It didn't come for free
It's been years in the making
It's been years in the making
It's been years in the making
