Lyrics My Way by Aloe Blacc

I've been sad, I've been lost
I've been down and out and lonely, hey
I've been suffering at a job, in a world that tries to own me
But when I wake up every morning there's an image of a better place, hey
'Cause the harder that we grind
Then the sweeter is the glory

People say I'm foolish
People say I'm blinded by faith
But if I run out of air
If I crash I don't care
I’m gonna do it my way

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear 'til I die
I'm gonna do it my way
Aye-aye, aye-aye, aye-aye-aye
Gonna do it my way
Aye-aye, aye-aye, aye-aye-aye
Gonna do it my way

So put me down and criticize me with your lies and with your parody, hey
In the darkness I don't hide, 'cause I got pride that gives me clarity
I still wake up in the morning with the vision of a better life
You see the option of defeat is just not written in my story

People say I'm foolish
People say I'm blinded by faith
But if I run out of air
If I crash I don't care
I’m gonna do it my way

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear 'til I die
I'm gonna do it my way
Aye-aye, aye-aye, aye-aye-aye
Gonna do it my way
Aye-aye, aye-aye, aye-aye-aye
Gonna do it my way

Every time they build a wall around me
I will tear it down and say
I'ma live my dreams
Gotta live my dreams
Even when the floods rush 'round to drown me
I just hold my breath and pray
Let me live my dreams
Every single one of my
I ain't quitting none of my dreams

People say I'm foolish
People say I'm blinded by faith
But if I run out of air
If I crash I don't care
I’m gonna do it my way

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear 'til I die
I’m gonna do it my way
Let me fly through the air, if I crash I don't care
I'm gonna do it my way
'Cause the fear gives me life
And I swear, 'til I die
I'm gonna do it my way
