My Own Way
Zoelly Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Felt like I'm in a quiet room
Surround with what all of them say and feel about my music
But now I'm doin' this with my own groove
Don't care bout' what they say, I'm leaning through with a new move
I finally found my own way
Not listenin' to what they gotta' say
Letting you be, no two faced
Know you better signal when you find your lane

Now I'm doin' this, movin' this, all around the place
Gettin' pretty then and going up, performing on that stage
If your negative, not settled with, who I am today
Know you better signal or get out my lane

Doin' this my own way
Not worried with what they say
Doin' this my own way
Doin' this my own way

Doin' this my own way
Not worried with what they say
Doin' this my own way
Doin' this, Doin' this my own way

If your buying all your followers and paying for your likes
Don't go clicking on my gram, cause you gonna' get declined
Yeah you act like your the real one, but your trying all the time
When I'm over here writing, now I'm taking what is mine

Blasting this, getting lit, dancing on that stage
In the media, its blowing up, fly out to LA
If your negative, not settled with who I am today
Know you better signal or get out my lane

Doin' this my own way
Not worried with what they say
Doin' this my own way
Doin' this my own way

Doin' this my own way
Not worried with what they say

Doin' this my own way
Doin' this my own way
