Paddling

Love many, trust few, always paddle your own canoe

Do what you do, Do what you do

Love many, trust few, always paddle your own canoe

Do what you do, Do what you do

 

Some may say I’m a bit of a loner

It’s true I like to keep my own company

But I’ve got friends, got a few good friends

They always have my back

And I’ve got a real good family

 

I’m going to keep paddling, paddling, paddling

I’m going to keep paddling, paddling paddling

And do what I do, do what I do

You may say, I’m a late bloomer

This is what I gonna say to you

It doesn’t matter which flower blooms sooner

It only matters if the bloom is true

 

I’m tired of living life to other people’s standards

Want to find a direction of my own

And I’m so tired of hearing what I should do, what I should say, what I should wear

This time I am going to make it on my own

On my own

 

Love many, trust few, always paddle your own canoe

I promise I’m not trying to be rebellious

And I’m not trying to stir it all up

But I’m not going to sit here with dreams inside my head

I’m gonna to make them happen, I’m gonna make them happen, make them happen instead
