Makin' My Way
Billie Lyrics

Been on the losing side
In the past, I have been unsuccessful at something I tried to achieve.

This time I'll turn the tide
But now, I will make a significant reversal of my fortunes and succeed.

This time I won't give up
I will persist and not surrender despite any setbacks or difficulties.

This time I'm in control
I am empowered and in charge of my own destiny.

I want the whole world to know
My achievement will be so noteworthy that it will gain widespread attention.

Ain't nothing to slow me down this time
There are no obstacles that will impede my progress to success.

This weird faith is on my side
A spiritual force or inner belief is guiding me towards reaching my goals.

And I've given all I've got
I have put forth maximum effort and dedication towards achieving my goal.

Count every step straight to the top
I am acutely aware of every milestone I achieve on my way to the top of my aspirations.

And if the river's too wide, I'll get through it
Even if there are significant challenges in the path ahead, I am determined to overcome them.

And if the mountain's too high, that won't stop the stream of mine
Despite the seemingly insurmountable obstacles, my determination and resolve towards achieving my goal will not falter.

So many times I've played in someone else's game
In the past, I have lived under the direction of others and was not following my own path or aspirations.

This time the game is changed
Now, I am in charge of and defining my own path and destiny.

This time I make the rules
I have the power to set the terms of my success, and nobody else can dictate them.

Ain't no one can hold me down this time
External forces or factors will not prevent me from reaching my goals.

This one's gonna be mine
I am confident that this achievement will be a defining success in my life that I own.

There's a brand new strength I've found
I have gained a new inner resilience and strength that I did not have before.

Ain't looking back ain't backing up
I am unapologetically and confidently moving forward towards my goal, without hesitation or doubt.

This time around, I'll stand my ground
This time, I am firmly rooted in my convictions and beliefs, and will not waver or compromise.

I'll live my dream, I realize the power lays deep in me
I am becoming fully aware of my own immeasurable strength and potential, and I am confident that I will succeed in realizing my dream.

(Nothing's gonna stop me this time. I'm on my way)
I am certain and unshaken in my belief that nothing will prevent me from achieving my goal.

(I'm on my way) I'll get through it
Regardless of how challenging it may be, I know that I will overcome any obstacles in my path.

(I'm on my way) Stop this stream of mine
Even if others attempt to halt my progress, I trust in my unwavering spirit and determination to persevere.

(I'm on my way) I've got a plan
I am tenacious and focused towards my goal and am diligently planning my path to success.

Baby I can
I am confident and poised to achieve my aspirations.
