Based on a futuristic Alan Walker and Big Fred production, the song blends English and Spanish perfectly to express that feeling we all get before doing something that\u2019s right, even if it paralyzes us with fear. Let\u2019s break down the song\u2019s lyrics to find out what Sabrina and Farruko want to tell us.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Alan Walker, Sabrina Carpenter &amp; Farruko  - On My Way\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dhYOPzcsbGM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the first verse, Sabrina seems to be describing that moment we all see in action movies when the hero prepares to go on a mission to fight the evil. Transposing herself in the character, Sabrina tells us that she doesn\u2019t want to talk or interact with anyone before the final battle happens but instead she wants a few moments for herself. Even if she\u2019s playing the hero, the singer is also feeling scared and a bit frustrated that the rest of the world doesn\u2019t understand her. She\u2019s actually a regular person even if everyone perceives her as a superhuman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>In the pre-chorus, Sabrina tells us that the entire scene is actually a ritual and once she\u2019s done sharing a few tears, she\u2019ll be back on her feet and ready to save the world. In fact, she mentions that she\u2019s capable of taking her misery and using it as a weapon, something that everyone seems to love about her. In the Chorus, the singer tells us that after going through these moods, she feels wide awake and conscious that she is the only person capable of watching her back. She is now fully functional and on her way to save the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let Take a Break and Watch the Music Video<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the second verse, Farruko tells us that his battleground is actually a love story. Right from the beginning of his verse, the singer mentions that he\u2019s not feeling comfortable in this situation and the only way he can become a better person is to end the relationship. After numerous fights, Farruko decided to so and take the blame on himself. Even if he loves the other person involved, breaking up was probably the best option for both of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moral of the song? Each and every one of us is a hero for the simple fact that we\u2019re able to put up our game face every single day of the week. Even if it takes strength and courage to play our part in this world, it\u2019s okay to cry and feel scared sometimes. As long as we\u2019re able to and get back on our feet and grow as a person, we\u2019re on the right path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"377\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/alan-walker-sabrina-carpenter-farruko-on-my-way-780x377.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2615\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/alan-walker-sabrina-carpenter-farruko-on-my-way-780x377.jpg 780w, https:\/\/cdn.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/alan-walker-sabrina-carpenter-farruko-on-my-way-768x371.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/alan-walker-sabrina-carpenter-farruko-on-my-way.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><figcaption>Alan Walker, Sabrina Carpenter &amp; Farruko &#8211; On My Way via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dhYOPzcsbGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">YouTube<\/a> <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interesting Facts About Alan Walker and His \u201cOwn My Way\u201d Single<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2021, when you read this title and this headline, it kind of seems like Alan Walker is going on a mission in his latest single &#8220;Own My Way&#8221; to fix the virus, doesn&#8217;t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ha-ha! Thought so!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, Walker is doing no such thing! The song is actually about a person who is leaving a bad relationship. The song\u2019s video depicts a female character who essentially leaves her life behind in order to &#8220;save the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kudos to Alan Walker though, he clearly was way ahead of all of us with the mask-wearing thing. For some strange reason, the man has always worn a black mask in the past \u2013way before the coronavirus ever became a thing! Could he be a &#8220;time-traveler superstar&#8221; or a psychic superhero that foresaw the pandemic long before it happened??<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nope!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Alan Walker Always Wears a Mask<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Alan, his reason for wearing the black mask in his music videos and at his shows is this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>It has become a part of my uniform. I wear it to symbolize that people are all the same and all equal. I like to believe that anyone could be the person behind the mask, and anyone can achieve amazing things.<\/p><cite>Alan Walker<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Nicely done Alan! That\u2019s a heck of a great reason to wear a mask. Well, in 2021, guess we are all kind of saving the world through the same gesture\u2026and that\u2019s an amazing thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Source<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sources wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.songmeaningsandfacts.com\/on-my-way-by-alan-walker-ft-sabrina-carpenter-farruko\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">https:\/\/www.songmeaningsandfacts.com\/on-my-way-by-alan-walker-ft-sabrina-carpenter-farruko\/<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/teenage.com.sg\/entertainment\/this-is-why-alan-walker-hides-his-face-from-the-public\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">https:\/\/teenage.com.sg\/entertainment\/this-is-why-alan-walker-hides-his-face-from-the-public\/<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alan Walker, Sabrina Carpenter, and Farruko team up for a new hero anthem entitled &#8220;On My Way&#8221;.
