I've been sad
I've been lost
I've down and out and lonely
I've been suffering at a job
In a world that tries to own me

But when I wake up in the morning
There's an image of a better place, yeah
'Cause the harder that we grind
Then the sweeter is the glory

People say I'm foolish
People say I'm blinded by faith
But if I run out of air
If I crash I don't care
I'm gonna do it my way

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear till I die
I'm gonna do it my way

Aye, aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye
Gonna do it my way

So put me down and criticize me
With your lies and with your parody
In the darkness I don't hide
'Cause I got pride that gives me clarity

Said I still wake in the morning
With a image of a better life
Because the option of defeat
Is just not written in my story

People say I'm foolish
People say I'm blinded by faith
But if I run out of air
If I crash I don't care
I'm gonna do it my way

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear till I die
I'm gonna do it my way

Aye, aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye
Gonna do it my way

Every time they build a wall around me
I'ma tear it down and say
I'm gonna live my dreams
Gotta live my dreams

Even when the floods rush round to drown me
I just hold my breath and pray
Let me live my dreams
Every single on of my
I ain't quitting none of my dreams

People say I'm foolish
People say I'm blinded by faith
But if I run out of air
If I crash I don't care
I'm gonna do it my way

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear till I die
I'm gonna do it my way

Aye, aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye

Let me fly through the air
If a crash I don't care
I'm gonna do it my way

Aye, aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye, aye

Cause the fear gives me life
And I swear till I die
Gonna do it my way
