Baby, life's what you make it
Can't escape it

Baby, yesterday's favorite
Don't you hate it

Baby life's what you make it
Don't back date it

Baby, don't try to shame it
Beauty is naked

Baby, life's what you make it
Celebrate it
Anticipate it
Yesterday's faded
Nothing can change it
Life's what you make it

    This song is encouraging two main themes that greatly correspond to transcendentalism. First, it is endorsing non-conformity in that it is telling people to see the world through their own eyes and heart, not through those and ideas of others. It’s also suggesting free thought in that it implies that there is no universal reality, only individual perception—that you create your own experience and that your own personal experience should not be clouded by judgment and ideas of society and other people. Life’s what you make it, celebrate it. Live in the now and don’t let the negatives of the past stop you and your heart’s desire for happiness.
