My Way

I am going my way and doing my thing And I’m doing what I need to do It’s what I have to do, it is my way to sing And I hope that you’re doing that too It is my life to spend, it is my life to live There’s no other way that it can be For if I do not it is not fair to me As it would be unfair to you too If I changed to meet you I’d give up part of me I’d expect you to do just the same So then you’d not be you and I’d not be me And neither’d be true to their name We are sovereign souls and we’re on our own path Doing what we came here to do It’s a solitary trip for each one to achieve For me as well as for you We must learn from each other whether sister or brother Or as friends, or just ships in the night Seeking only to grow from what we come to know At all times only doing what’s right When I’m unjust to you by the things that I do It’s reflected back into my soul And its’ karma persists and pushes me back So I’m further away from my goal There is only one way, just be true to yourself Keep the goal of your growth in view Never try to be different just to meet someone else For you sacrifice being just you You must learn how to love, you must start with yourself So you have the love in you to share It’s the right way to live, you will have it to give To everyone, any time, anywhere
