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 men
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!
I'm on my way
On my way!

I'm on my way
On my way!
On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way
I'm on my way
On my way!

Go throw the key away
No matter what they 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!

On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way
I'm on my way
On my way!
I'm on my way
On my way!
On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way
I'm on my way
On my way!
On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way




On, on, on my way
On, on, on my way
