i made it happen on my own Lyrics

[Intro]

1...2...3...

[Verse 1]

There's nobody signing my paycheques

There's nobody promising a raise

I'm a man without a country

Yeah, my résumé's kind of dusty

'Cause I really don't use it these days

[Verse 2]

There's nobody angel investing

There's nobody throwing money at me

I'm a startup with no seed round

No Bay Area mansion to be found

I didn't even get a college degree

[Chorus]

But I'm doing just fine

(Doing just fine)

Took a little more time

But look at the seeds I've sown

Yeah, I'm doing just fine

(Doing just fine)

Didn't wanna fall in line

So I made it happen on my own

[Verse 3]

Now I'm paying my bills with my products

Yeah, they probably paid a few other people's too

I'm the director and the gaffer

I'm the sound man and the clapper

So what in the world makes you think I would need you?

[Chorus]

Yeah, I'm doing just fine

(Doing just fine)

Took a little more time

But look at the seeds I've sown

Yeah, I'm doing just fine

(Doing just fine)

Didn't wanna fall in line

So I made it happen on my own

[Bridge]

Nobody paid me attention

Nobody wanted me on board

But if anyone comes knocking

Offering me options, I'll tell 'em

Brother, my freedom beats any price you can afford

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm doing just fine

(Doing just fine)

Took a little more time

But look at the seeds I've sown

Yeah, I'm doing just fine

(Doing just fine)

Didn't wanna fall in line

So I made it happen on my own

[Ending]

Yeah, I made it happen on my own

I made it happen on my own
