My Own Way
a doom Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That led me to this world
Nothing could stop me
No love no drug and no girl
And I have made my choice
I'm going down this road
No turning back this is
My first and my first chord
No matter what you think
But I'm still going my own way
This is my fate and destiny
No matter what you say
The people look at me when
I walk the streets
Like I'm some kind of freak
They might think I've lost it
But atleast I know what
I want to seek
You'll never understand
So don't you ask a reason why
Don't give a damn if I lose
I want to give it a try
No matter what you think
But I'm still going my own way
This is my fate and destiny
No matter what you say
The lyrics of the doom's song "My Own Way" are about a person's individuality and their determination to follow their own path. The opening lines, "One day I heard a voice, That led me to this world," suggest a mysterious, perhaps spiritual, experience that has set the singer on their trajectory. The mention of "no love no drug and no girl" implies that they have chosen to prioritize their unique journey over any potential distractions or relationships.
The phrase "my first and my first chord" could refer to the beginning of a new chapter in the singer's life. They are resolute in their decision, regardless of the potential consequences or obstacles they may face. The chorus reinforces this sentiment, with the repetition of "No matter what you think, But I'm still going my own way, This is my fate and destiny, No matter what you say". The singer is defying societal norms and expectations, even in the face of judgment and ostracization.
The final lines of the song, "You'll never understand, So don't you ask a reason why, Don't give a damn if I lose, I want to give it a try," demonstrate that the singer is willing to take risks and face failure in pursuit of their goals. The song encourages listeners to embrace their individuality and pursue their passions, even if it means going against the grain.
