[Verse 1]
If I got what I wanted
I never would have gotten to me
Gotten to me
If I hadn't taken that risk
I don't know where I'd be
Who I'd be
[Chorus]
Ain't it just the way that it goes?
Oh, baby
When you're going places nobody knows
They call you crazy
And you feel like a failure, ooh
Well, maybe you're a trailblazer
[Verse 2]
They'll try to change you
Try to make you be like them
See like them
Babe, I wouldn't blame you
It's lonely when you don't fit in
When you don't fit in
[Chorus]
Ain't it just the way that it goes?
Oh, baby
When you're going places nobody knows
They call you crazy
And you feel like a failure, ooh
But baby, you're a trailblazer
[Bridge]
You're gonna get there someday
You're gonna find that heart of gold
Where the rainbow is
[Chorus]
Ain't it just the way that it goes?
Oh, baby
When you're going places nobody knows
They call you crazy
And you feel like a failure, oh
Baby, you're a trailblazer
Baby, you're a trailblazer
[Outro]
Baby, baby
Baby, you're a trailblazer
