On My Way
Axwell - Ingrosso Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No time to pretend
dust off and try again
straight out of lions den
strong as a thousand man
that's what I've been told
since I was six years old
duck down and count to ten
I'm gonna hit the Lotto
I'm gonna place my bet on every step I take
go tell everyone under the sun
I'm on my way

And if I hit rock bottom
I'm gonna smile and dance with every step I take
go tell everyone under the sun
I'm On my way
On my way!

Go throw the key away
no matter what the say
all for a better day
you will always be the same
that's what I've been told
since I was six years old
duck down and count to ten

I'm gonna hit the Lotto
I'm gonna place my bet on every step I take
go tell everyone under the sun
I'm on my way

And If I hit rock bottom
I'm gonna smile and dance with every step I take
go tell everyone under the sun




I'm On my way
On my way!
