Gotta Go My Own Way
Gabriella; Troy Lyrics

I gotta say what's on my mind
I need to express my true feelings

Something about us
Our relationship doesn't feel right

Doesn't seem right these days
Our relationship has changed for the worse recently

Life keeps getting in the way
Obstacles keep preventing us from being together

Whenever we try, somehow the plan
Every time we try to make things work, something goes wrong

Is always rearranged
Our attempts at fixing our relationship never go the way we want them to

It's so hard to say
I am struggling to tell you this

But I've gotta do what's best for me
I need to prioritize my own happiness

You'll be okay
You will be able to move on without me

I've go to move on and be who I am
I need to live my life on my own terms

I just don't belong here, I hope you understand
I don't feel like I fit in this relationship or this lifestyle

We might find a place in this world someday
Maybe we can reconcile in the future

But at least for now, I gotta go my own away
For now, it's best if we go our separate ways

Don't wanna leave it all behind
I don't want to abandon everything we had

But I get my hopes up
I keep thinking things will get better

And I watch them fall every time
But they keep getting worse

Another color turns to gray
Everything around us is losing its vibrancy

And it's just too hard to watch it all
It's too painful to witness this deterioration

Slowly fade away
Everything is slipping out of our control

I'm leaving today
I am ending our relationship now

'Cause I gotta do what's best for me
I need to prioritize my own happiness

What about us?
What will happen to our relationship?

What about everything we've been through?
Don't our past experiences mean anything?

What about trust?
Didn't we have a foundation of trust?

You know I never wanted to crush you
I never intended to hurt you

And what about me?
What will happen to me after we break up?

What am I supposed to do?
How can I move on from this?

I gotta leave but I'll miss you
I have to say goodbye, but I will still have feelings for you

So, I've got to move on and be who I am
I need to focus on myself and my personal growth

(Why do you have to go?)
(Why can't we work things out?)

I just don't belong here, I hope you understand
I don't feel like I fit in this relationship or this lifestyle

(I'm trying to understand)
(I am trying to comprehend your decision)

We might find a place in this world someday
Maybe we can reconcile in the future

But at least for now
For now

(I want you to stay)
(I wish you would stay)

I wanna go my own way
I need to carve my own path in life

I've got to move on and be who I am
I need to focus on myself and my personal growth

(What about us?)
(What will happen to our relationship?)

I just don't belong here, I hope you understand
I don't feel like I fit in this relationship or this lifestyle

(I'm trying to understand)
(I am trying to comprehend your decision)

We might find a place in this world someday
Maybe we can reconcile in the future

But at least for now, I gotta go my own away
For now, it's best if we go our separate ways

I gotta go my own away
I need to carve my own path in life
