Own Way Lyrics by Shaylen

Highs and Lows

2019

[Verse 1]
I been sipping, I been smoking
I'm  in therapy, they say "It might help
It's  good for your health"
I'm impatient, I'm destructive
I keep focusing on everyone else
Except  for myself
[Pre-Chorus]
I  can only go up 'cause I been so down
Fill up on love, there ain't no middle ground
The  older I get, I can't play the victim
In the heat of the moment, I wanna keep moving
But then, I just can't
[Chorus]
I gotta get out of my own way
I  gotta slip out of my old ways
Don't tell me I should do it 'cause then I'll never do it
And then I'll fuckin' lose it, yeah yeah
I gotta get out of my own way (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I gotta slip out of my old ways (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't tell me I should do it 'cause then I'll never do it
And then I'll fuckin' lose it, yeah yeah
[Verse 2]
Body issues, grab the tissues
Know that we all heard that story before
We heard it before
Some disfunction, kinda love it
I'm incapable of normal at all
It isn't my fault
[Pre-Chorus]
I can only go up 'cause I been so down
Fill up on love, there ain't no middle ground
The older I get, I can't play the victim
In the heat of the moment, I wanna keep moving
But then, I just can't (Woo)
[Chorus]
I gotta get out of my own way
I gotta slip out of my old ways
Don't tell me I should do it 'cause then I'll never do it
And then I'll fuckin' lose it, yeah yeah
I gotta get out of my own way (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I gotta slip out of my old ways (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't tell me I should do it 'cause then I'll never do it
And then I'll fuckin' lose it, yeah yeah
[Bridge]
If you feel how I feel, then I'm gonna keep it real
I'm a mess and I'm tryna keep up
If you feel how I feel, then I'm gonna keep it real
I'm a mess and I'm tryna keep up
Don't tell me I should do it 'cause then I'll never do it
And then I'll fuckin' lose it
Don't tell me I should do it 'cause then I'll never do it
And then I'll fuckin' lose it, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I gotta get out of my own way (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Oh no, oh no, oh)
I gotta slip out of my old ways (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(I said, don't tell me, don't tell me, oh)
Don't tell me I should do it 'cause then I'll never do it (Ooh)
And then I'll fuckin' lose it, yeah yeah
