When I was younger folks kept telling me
Working hard is everything you need
Never stop before it's good enough
Got the brains but vision held me down
You're being lazy is what they said to me
I don't care what they have to say
'Cause I walk my own way
And now I'm done with it
Please don't see it as a failure
'Cause I'll make it anyway
Walking down my own road
Getting damn pretty close
To my perfect world
My perfect world
At school I got all the highest grades
Tell me, what am I doing wrong?
Tell me who I'm suposed to be
Be like them only just for once
You should make something of your life
Don't tell me what I have to do
'Cause I walk my own way
And now I'm done with it
Please don't see it as a failure
'Cause I'll make it anyway
Walking down my own road
Getting damn pretty close
To my perfect world
My perfect world
And now I'm done with it
Please don't see it as a failure
'Cause I'll make it anyway
Walking down my own road
Getting damn pretty close
To my perfect world
My perfect world
(And now I'm done with it
Please don't see it as a failure)
My perfect world
('Cause I'll make it anyway)
My perfect world
(Walking down my own road
Getting damm pretty close)
My perfect world
(To my perfect world)
My perfect world
