Nyah) qordyn August, 2026 [Verse 1] I trip on my own name Then I laugh and try again The words get tangled up But I keep talking anyway My feet do a little dance When I’m just trying to stand I move like I’m learning myself One more time, one more chance [Pre-Chorus] I pause, I breathe. I let it land. I take my time. And that is my plan. [Chorus] I take the long way I take the long way Still getting there Still okay I take the long way I take the long way If I lose the word I work my way around [Verse 2] Sometimes I drift off course Miss the turn, miss the sign So I listen to that voice That gets me there in time And if I walk and reach Like I’m two beats out of sync I just grin, reset my feet And find my footing again [Pre-Chorus] I pause, I breathe. I let it land. I take my time. And that is my plan. [Chorus] I take the long way I take the long way Still getting there Still okay I take the long way I take the long way If I lose the word I work my way around [Bridge] Yeah, I’m not the fast lane I’m the sturdy kind A little crooked, a little slow But I’m still on my way I don’t need perfect To know I’m enough I’ve got a bright wide grin And a little fight in me [Chorus] I take the long way-- I take the long way Still getting there Still okay I take the long way I take the long way If I lose the word I work my way around I take the long way (I work my way around) I take the long way (work my way around) And I’m winning... In my own way
