This is not the right way
This is not the right way
This is not the right way
This is not the right way
This is not the right way
Some have said that I was given keys to the city of your dreams
I'm more content to walk outside the walls and catch a breeze
I'm more inclined to climb on by or ride internal seas
I'm more alive to vibe inside a mansion full of trees
I do this for a reason that they can't pretend to glean
I lose myself infused in something more than what they've seen
I'm not a slave to greed, I don't embrace your make believe
I've never been for sale, no matter what they think I need
So let it be decreed
Let this music serve the deed
Let it spread like a disease
Let it spawn a noble seed
There's more than meets the eye
There's more than meets the price
If you can't see the sky there's too much artificial light
I can't predict my path, but they can't fully see my past
I'm running from the flash but heading straight inside the blast
A mountain full of ego built upon a heap of trash
Is exactly what you get when you can't fully do the math
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
This is not the right way, this is not the right way
About This Song
"The Way" is a contemplative and defiant declaration of artistic independence that rejects materialism and conformity in favor of authentic self-expression. Hemsey's lyrics paint a portrait of someone who chooses creative freedom over commercial success, preferring to "walk outside the walls" of conventional expectations rather than be handed "keys to the city of your dreams." The track features Hemsey's signature cinematic style, blending orchestral elements with hip-hop influenced vocals to create a dramatic, almost philosophical meditation on artistic integrity. The song resonates as an anthem for artists and free thinkers who refuse to compromise their vision for external validation or financial gain. Its themes of non-conformity and spiritual fulfillment over material wealth make it a powerful statement about staying true to one's authentic path, regardless of societal pressures.
