On My Way
Pevan & Sarah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thought I was the only
In my darkest times I
Had to shine or I’d get lost
Looking for the truth and
Learning how to move
I made it through the nights cuz
I stayed real
I made sacrifices and the prices fell on me
(All me)
And you don’t know all things I thought I had to prove to you
All those years that's what I thought I was supposed to do
I think I’ll take my own way up, way up
Can't rely on anyone but me save me
Two long years, I was down but not broken
Faced my fears, stayed down and stayed focused
I got here, made the most of every lesson
Most of every blessing
Everything was testing me
On my way up
On my way up
On my way up
On my way up
I'm looking in the mirror and I don't know what I see
I need to learn to love my reflection differently
I put some miles on that whip
Told that girl that somethings gotta give right now
I been through so much that I never told
I seen so many people they sell their soul
Demons testin’ me
In my LA nights
See them out lookin' for they next sacrifice
I gotta keep fighting
Can't let them get to me
Forgive everything
What's done is ancient history
But you don’t know all things I thought I had to prove to you
All those years that's what I thought I was supposed to do
I think I’ll take my own way up, way up
Can't rely on anyone but me to save me
Two long years, I was down but not broken
Faced my fears, stayed down and stayed focused
I got here, made the most of every lesson
Most of every blessing
Everything was testing me
On my way up
On my way up
On my way up
On my way up
I’ve been dreamin’
Of a better tomorrow
Want something not hollow
And all I need is a shot at my vision
It’s more than ambition
It’s real
I think I’ll take my own way up, way up
Can’t rely on anyone but me save me
Two long years, I was down but not broken
Faced my fears, stayed down and stayed focused
I got here, made the most of every lesson
Most of every blessing
Everything was testing me
On my way up
On my way up
On my way up
On my way up

I have had aspirations and hopes for my future
Of a better tomorrow

Want something not hollow
I want something with substance and meaning
And all I need is a shot at my vision
All I need is an opportunity to pursue my goals
It’s more than ambition
My aspirations are more than just a desire for success
It’s real
My goals and aspirations are authentic and meaningful to me
