OMW
Asiahn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

9 AM on the wake up
Time to get my cake up
Babe tripping, these bills hitting
But I'll deal with all that later
Gotta find a way out
It's hard enough to stay down
Mama crying, it's people dying
It's hard to feel I'll make it out alright

But I gotta find the light
Even on my darkest days
Dreams too close to leave 'em
So I gotta hit the gas

I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Ooh, I

People starting to change now
They see I'm on the way out
Everybody tryna get a piece
They don't think that I can see them
Ones claiming they loyal
And always be there for you
Be the same niggas
Who be acting different
Claim they're doing what's best for you, oh no

But I gotta be the light
So much pressure, I can't lose my way
Dreams too close to leave 'em
So I gotta hit the gas

I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Ooh, I

I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Ooh, I

I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way (I)




I'm on my way (I)
I'm on my way

Her tone, her tempo, the choices of the runs she does is elite on another level. This song is a straight vibe, just close your eyes and let her work.

I teared up watching this as my perception of the video was her spending time with her self as a child and reminder her to never give up. I have seen her story and struggles and her art is truly rare and beautiful. She has no clue how much her music has helped me...thank you!
