I've been sad, I've been lost, I've been down and out and lonely I've been suffering at a job, in a world that tries to own me When I wake up every morning, there's an image of a better place It's 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't make it through this, looking through the world in my face But the fear gives me life and I swear till I die, I'm gonna do it my way So put me down, criticize me with your lies and with your parody In the darkness I don't hide cause I got pride that gives me clarity I still wake up in the morning with the vision of a better life You see the option of defeat's 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 Hey, gonna do it my way Hey, 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 till 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 till I die, I'm gonna do it my way I'm gonna do it my way
