Which Way
James Quick Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm tryna make my way because I love to play
Well there's so much to say
It's for the fun
But I stop to run and fun
Becomes about the money and the lights
Well there's too much to say
Writing about all of my broken hearts
Won't you tell me what you think?
Finding a grain within what I say
Wishing to change up your day-to-day
I really do care what you think
Made my way
Hair is still not gray
I keep myself awake
My mind is hard to break
And you get what you take
It's for my kids who look up to you
My parents gave me everything I ever knew
Well there's too much to say
Who knew that I could ever see this far
Writing about all of my broken hearts
Won't you tell me what you think?
Finding a grain within what I say
Wishing to change up your day-to-day
I really do care what you think
