This, this is the way 
This is the way I want to live
I'm going through changes 
This is the way I want to live 

From this day one no one going tell you
What I should do and what I should not 
That ain't the way, the way that it shall be
Fight it all the way
So let them vultures prey on each other
Don't let them spoil it you've come this far 
Coming out like a force of nature 
This is the shape of things to come 

This, this is the way 
This is the way I want to live 
I'm going through changes (coming up, coming up)
This is the way I want to live
This, this is the way
This is the way I want to live 
I'm going through changes (coming up, coming up)
This is the way I want to live 

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

So if you're feeling sort of down and out
Don't loose your faith, wipe away the doubt 
You must take a stand that's what it is about
If nothing else works just shout 
You're no Baloney Homo Sapiens
You're the original king of the hill again 
Coming out like a force of nature 
This is the shape of things to come

This, this is the way 
This is the way I want to live 
I'm going through changes (coming up, coming up)
This is the way I want to live
This, this is the way
This is the way I want to live 
I'm going through changes (coming up, coming up)
This is the way I want to live 

This, this is the way 
This is the way I want to live 
I'm going through changes 
This is the way I want to live

So if you're feeling sort of down and out
Don't loose your faith, wipe away the doubt 
You must take a stand that's what it is about 
If nothing else works just shout 
You're no Baloney Homo Sapiens
You're the original king of the hill again 
Coming out like a force of nature 
This is the shape of things to come

This, this is the way 
This is the way I want to live 
I'm going through changes (coming up, coming up)
This is the way I want to live
This, this is the way
This is the way I want to live 
I'm going through changes (coming up, coming up)
This is the way I want to live 

This, this is the way 
This is the way I want to live 
I'm going through changes (coming up, coming up)
This is the way I want to live
