My Own Terms

When you’re feeling like you failed

And you’re thinking your ship has sailed

Let me tell you something that may save you

Keep on learning from your mistakes

And you’ll get that decisive break

Just keep saying I will persevere

On my own terms

In my own right

In my own way

My own flight

Yeah on my own terms

In my own right

In my own way

My own flight

The naysayers will make you feel

Your objectives are far from real

They will tell you don’t bother you won’t break through

Be defiant, be resolute

And accept no substitute

Just keep saying I will persevere

On my own terms

In my own right

In my own way

My own flight

Yeah on my own terms

In my own right

In my own way

My own flight

It’s my own flight

And my own right

It’s my own life

My own terms

My own right

My own way

My own flight

Yeah on my own terms

In my own right

In my own way

My own flight

For it’s my own life
