The Ways

From the album If I Wasn't Me by Scottychams

Chorus

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me moving every day

Trying to find another way

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me changing every day

Trying to find a better way

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me moving every day

Trying to find another way

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me moving every day

Trying to find another way

Verse 1

I used to think the ways

Had to look like what they told me

School work bills

Then the days move slowly

But I got one life

And I'm done moving lowkey

Waiting for a sign

When the sign was what I showed me

So I toss the script

Not just the page

Change the pace

Then change the game

If the old way breaks

I don't stay in place

I take that pain

And redirect the aim

I'm chasing what I want

Not what they expect

Trying different ways

Till the ways connect

If it takes all night

If it takes all year

I'll keep showing up

Till the path gets clear

Every wrong turn

Still taught me something

Every dead end

Got me back to running

Chorus

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me moving every day

Trying to find another way

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me changing every day

Trying to find a better way

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me moving every day

Trying to find another way

Verse 2

I've been thinking 'bout the ways

I could make this mine

Different roads, same goal

I just take my time

Had to fail one way

Just to find one sign

Had to lose one plan

Just to build one right

Maybe I'm close

Maybe I'm climbing

Maybe the path only shows

When you finally try it

This is for life

I ain't moving part-time

Every line that I write

Got a spark in the dark side

I do it for growth

I do it for truth

I do it for the kid

Who had something to prove

Every verse in my mind

Got rehearsed through the grind

Then dispersed like a light

Trying to open your eyes

Life became a contest

Vision got clouded

I'm only here for progress

Let this be the protest

Chorus

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me moving every day

Trying to find another way

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me changing every day

Trying to find a better way

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me moving every day

Trying to find another way

Final Chorus

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me moving every day

Trying to find another way

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me changing every day

Trying to find a better way

The ways

Got me thinking 'bout the ways

Got me moving every day

Trying to find another way

Trying to find another way
