**[Intro]**
Yeah
I done took the long road, still made it
Nobody gave me nothin’, I had to take it
My way
**[Hook]**
I had to do it my way, nobody showed me the route
Had pain all in my chest, I just ain’t speakin’ about it
They only come around when they see you finally up
Where was you when I was broke, tryna turn nothin’ to somethin’?
I did it my way, my way
Stayed ten toes through the hard days
Lost some people on the highway
But I’m still ridin’ till God say
**[Verse 1]**
I remember nights, no money in my pocket
Dreams bigger than the crib, couldn’t nobody stop it
Mama told me keep faith, I was fightin’ with demons
Smile up on my face, whole time I was bleedin’
Had some brothers switch sides, that was hard to accept
Gave my heart to some people, got betrayal instead
Now I move a little different, I got scars in my step
Every loss made me stronger, I ain’t finished yet
I was down on my last, nobody picked up the phone
So don’t call me your brother now you see what I’m on
Had to learn how to stand when I felt all alone
Built this straight from the dirt, now the foundation strong
I ain’t perfect, I admit it, made mistakes on the way
But I wake up every morning tryna better my days
If tomorrow ain’t promised, I got something to say
I lived life on my terms, I did it all my way
**[Hook]**
I had to do it my way, nobody showed me the route
Had pain all in my chest, I just ain’t speakin’ about it
They only come around when they see you finally up
Where was you when I was broke, tryna turn nothin’ to somethin’?
I did it my way, my way
Stayed ten toes through the hard days
Lost some people on the highway
But I’m still ridin’ till God say
**[Verse 2]**
I got memories I bury, but they still come alive
Had to cut some people off just to keep me alive
Everybody say they love you till it’s time to provide
So I stopped lookin’ around and put my trust in the sky
I done slept with my problems, woke up ready for war
Every closed door showed me I deserved something more
I was standing in the rain, now I’m touching the storm
Turned the pain into a flame, now the whole thing warm
Still got family I’m praying I can put in a mansion
Still got questions for God, I’m just waiting on answers
I been walking through fire, somehow dodging disaster
If they writing my story, tell ’em pain made the chapters
I don’t care who don’t like me, I got nothing to prove
Took some L’s, kept it moving, that’s just what winners do
When it’s over, just remember every word that I say
I ain’t follow nobody—
I did it my way.
**[Outro]**
My way
Through the rain, through the heartbreak
Still standing
Still me
Yeah
I did it my way.
