It's My Way - Buffy Sainte-Marie

Through my own day

And all I dare say is

It’s my own

(Got my) own seeds

Got my own weeds

I’ve got my own harvest

That I’ve sown

I can tell you

Things I’ve done

And I can sing you

Songs I’ve sung

But there’s one thing

I can’t give

For I and I alone can live

The years I’ve known

The life I’ve grown

Got a way I’m going

And it’s my Way

I’ve got my own stakes

In my own game

I’ve got my own name

And it’s my Way

I’ve got my own kith

I’ve got my own kin

I’ve got my own sin

And it’s my Way

I’ve got my own peace

I’ve got my own wrath

I’ve got my own path that only I can go

I’ve got my own sword in my own hand

I’ve got my own plan that only I can know

Don’t be sighing

Don’t be crying

Your day will come;

your day alone

Years you’ll know and a life you’ll grow

You got a way to go and it’s all on your own

I’ve got my own world

I’ve got my own life

I’ve got my own strife

And it’s my Way

I’ve got my own wrong

I’ve got my own right

I’ve got my own fight

And it’s my Way

I’ve got my own prayers

I’ve got my own fears

I’ve got my own tears

And it’s my Way

I’ve got my own joy

I’ve got my own load

I’ve got my own road

And it’s my Way

The years I’ve known

The life I’ve grown

Got a way I’m going

And it’s my Way

Don’t be sighing

Don’t be crying

Your day will come;

your day alone

Put down the story of what I’ve known

Your bound for glory all of your own

Put down the story of what I say

You’re bound for glory

All on your own one day
