I've been sad, I've been lost I've been down and out and lonely, hey I've been suffering at job, in a world that tries to own me But when I wake up every morning there's an image of a better place, hey '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 'til I die I'm gonna do it my way Aye-aye, aye-aye, aye-aye-aye Gonna do it my way 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, hey In the darkness I don't hide, 'cause I got pride that gives me clarity I still wake up in the morning with a vision of a better life You see, 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 'til I die I'm gonna do it my way Aye-aye, aye-aye, aye-aye-aye Gonna do it my way Aye-aye, aye-aye, aye-aye-aye Gonna do it my way Every time they build a wall around me I will tear it down and say I'ma 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 one 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, 'til I die I'm gonna do it my way Let me fly through the air, if I crash I don't care I'm gonna do it my way 'Cause the fear gives me life And I swear, 'til I die I'm gonna do it my way
