One Way
Miller & Divini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You brought me, you taught me, fought for me
You mold me, you scold me, and hold me
But you never own me, I'm on my own way
You tease me, you ease me, you please me
You gave me, you saved me, paved the way
I dream, I scream, you redeem me
But you never own me, I'm on my own way
You took me, you shook me, looked for me
You try for me, sigh for me, you cry for me
But you never own me, I'm on my own way
You connect me, direct me, respect me
You believe me, relieve me, grieve for me
I need, I bleed, you heed to me
But you never own me, I'm on my own way
You guide me, denied me, provide for me
You give me, relive me, forgive me
You strive for me, contrive for me, revive me
But you never own me, I'm on my own way
You steer me, revere me, are sincere to me
You cheer me, endear me, you hear me
I try, I rely, you reply to me
I never owned you, you were on your own way
No I never owned you, you were on your own way
I never owned you, always on your own way
The chorus of "One Way" by Miller & Divini is a declaration of independence and autonomy. The lyrics speak to the relationship between two people, one who has been a guiding force in the life of the other. The verses detail the different ways the person has impacted the singer's life, from teaching and saving to scolding and consoling. Despite all of this, the singer wants to make it clear that they are their own person, bound to no one.
The repetition of the line "you never own me, I'm on my own way" serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of personal freedom and individuality. It's a message that resonates with anyone who has ever felt the pressure to conform to someone else's expectations.
The bridge of the song, where the singer acknowledges that the other person has helped them in many ways, adds a layer of complexity to the lyrics. It shows that while the singer is asserting their independence, they are still grateful for the support and guidance they received.
Overall, "One Way" is a testament to the power of personal agency and the importance of being true to oneself.
