"In My Way" lyrics
(feat. Jaguilera)
[K.A.A.N. & Jaguilera:]
It's all I've done
It's all I do
It's all I'll ever need
It's all I want
And I just hope that they remember me
And the pain
Doesn't seem to go away
But I want this shit to change
I got love for the game
Find it hard to stay the same
And I don't want that
[K.A.A.N.:]
I operate off integrity, my intentions are pure
You know these niggas sell they souls for the newest velour
I never could ride in that lane
They hydroplane when they inconvenienced by turbulence
Swerving back and forth tryna find a spot they could merge up in
But no I'll never define myself by my position, listen
This is years of repetition, dedication, and persistence
It's a blessing and a curse
No one is bigger than me
When it's got to the point that respect is the last thing that I need
For the validation they seek is only for public perception
I seen niggas self implode from the fear of rejection
I seen niggas act like hoes so they can be accepted
By people that don't give a fuck, they left their morals neglected
But not I
I would never do the same
Lord knows I could never do the same
I'm too stuck in my ways
Too much pride nigga I could never change no
[K.A.A.N. & Jaguilera:]
It's all I've done
It's all I do
It's all I'll ever need
It's all I want
And I just hope that they remember me
And the pain
Doesn't seem to go away
But I want this shit to change
I got love for the game
Find it hard to stay the same
And I don't want that
[K.A.A.N.:]
Lately I've been feeling hopeless
Had to recenter my focus
Took a second, had to dive deep to my heart beat but I notice
I was just managing pain
Lifestyles of the vain
Lights out in the daytime, in the darkness once again
It's harder to find your center when you lacking faith
You feeling like a basket case
Your confidence deceased, it seems your self-esteem has passed away
I'm running and running and running 'til I reach the finish
I'm giving it everything I got until there's nothing in me
It's all love, peace, and blessings
I hope you succeed, true indeed
I pray you get everything that you feel you need
Just understand that everything ain't always what it seems
What was once a dream could turn into the Devil's Mezzanine
A living hell, it's hard to tell which way we even going
Still a lack of empathy, there's nowhere to guard your emotions
It's darkness before the light shines and the sun enters
Either way no matter how low you get just try to remember
[K.A.A.N. & Jaguilera:]
It's all I've done
It's all I do
It's all I'll ever need
It's all I want
And I just hope that they remember me
And the pain
Doesn't seem to go away
But I want this shit to change
I got love for the game
Find it hard to stay the same
And I don't want that
It's all I've done
It's all I do
It's all I'll ever need
It's all I want
And I just hope that they remember me
And the pain
Doesn't seem to go away
But I want this shit to change
I got love for the game
Find it hard to stay the same
And I don't want that
