On My Way
XYPO Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was born up in a system
There ain't no room for no mistake
And all I'm tryina be amazing
I'm only human for today

See, I ain't got no job
Don't know where I'm going
But I'm on my way
I told my mama I would fly
With the stars up in the sky
But I miss my thing

So, uh, another day, another dollar
But my wait still in pain
So, uh, every dream I chase
It's just a mile away

I'm on my way
I'm on my way

See, I don't got no fancy car
But I'm on my way
I might get there by tomorrow
But tomorrow's another day

So, uh, another day, another dollar
But my wait still in pain
So, uh, every dream I chase
It's just a mile away





I'm on my way
I'm on my way
