  • Måns Zelmerlöw has released the music video of "On My Way", the opening track of his latest studio album titled “Time”. 

    Just a couple of months ago , in October 2019, Måns Zelmerlöw had released his latest studio album titlled "Time". The music video of its opening track “On my Way” , has been released following the previously released songs  “Better Now”, “Grow Up To Be You” and “Walk With Me” which are included in the same album .

    The opening track of the album, “On My Way”, provides a chill introduction to the record. It features electronic and guitar elements, but is also filled with a recurrent whistle sound near the end of the chorus. The lyrics picture a dialogue with Mans in his younger times and the things he had been hearing from different people, while the music video showcases monents of the swedish star’s life starting back from his childhood years at school and moving on to  his Melodifestivalen times , the ESC 2015 victory and his comeback at this year’s Australia’s national final Eurovision:Australia Decides.

    The song delivers a strong meanful message on how to deal with the other people’s often discouraging opinion or the obstacles life can bring in everybody’s ways and that they shouldn’t  discourage us or make us loose our direction from what we really are and want to be in our lifes. 

    Here are the powerful lyrics of the song “On My Way” :

    You don’t need to hear the shit that they talkin’
    You don’t need to care, it’s nothin’ important
    ‘Cause you’re only 11, it’s only the start
    One day they’re all gonna know who you are
    Just keep on walking
    You don’t need to stay at the back of the classroom
    You don’t need to play it all back when they laugh at you
    ‘Cause you’re only 15 and you know in your heart
    One day they’re all gonna know who you are
    Just keep on walking

    I’m on my way
    I’m getting closer everyday
    To where I’m supposed to be
    I know it’s only a question of time
    If anyone’s asking just tell them that I’m on my way

    And don’t be let down if you’re not what they’re after
    Oh, it’s not the ending, it’s not a disaster
    ‘Cause you’re only 15 and she’s only the first
    To mess with your head and I know that it hurts
    But keep on walking
    And don’t be the man who forgets where he came from
    Oh, a little success doesn’t make you an icon
    ‘Cause you’re 21 now and it’s time that you know
    Nothing comes easy and you’ve got so far to go
    Just keep on walking

    I’m on my way
    I’m getting closer everyday
    To where I’m supposed to be
    I know it’s only a question of time
    If anyone’s asking just tell them that I’m on my way

    (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
    (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
    Just keep on walking
    (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
    Just keep on walking
    (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

    I’m on my way
    I’m getting closer everyday (oh-oh)
    To where I’m supposed to be
    I know it’s only a question of time
    If anyone’s asking just tell them that I’m on my way
    (I’m on my way)
