My Way, Soon Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've seen many people
There are so many people
Some are much younger people
And some are so old


I've seen many places
There are so many places
And where are the people going?
Will they choose the road?

[Chorus]
I've packed my bags and I've got my freedom
I've sacked the rules so I don't have to heed them
I'll bet on a chance if I've just got one
I'll throw out the plans and live with no burden

[Verse 2]
I have but a lifetime
Seems so long but it flies by
And in the moments passing
I'll bear no load

I have yet to wander
Many miles far yonder
And with so much left to ponder
I choose the road
[Chorus]
I've packed my bags and I've got my freedom
I've sacked the rules so I don't have to heed them
I'll bet on a chance if I've just got one
I'll throw out the plans and live with no burden

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I've packed my bags and I've got my freedom
I've sacked the rules so I don't have to heed them
I'll bet on a chance if I've just got one
I'll throw out the plans and live with no burden

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Greta Van Fleet say about "My Way, Soon"?
Genius Answer

An October 2020 NME article quotes Josh Kiszka saying:

‘My Way, Soon’ was inspired by what three years of touring did by opening so many doorways. This is my truth, how I feel about all of our travels, but I know it echoes the experiences and changes of perspectives for Jake, Sam, and Danny as well.
