Steve Aoki and Aloe Blacc come together for an uplifting new collaboration that triumphs over 2020 with a positive attitude.

Aoki describes “My Way” as a “feel good banger,” and he sets the tone with an approachable, upbeat production to match. Blacc’s powerhouse voice heightens the mood, delivering soulful and honest lyrics many of us can relate to — especially after the year we’ve had.

He sings:

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear ’til I die
I’m gonna do it my way

Aoki shares: “I’m so excited for my track with Aloe to finally be out in the world and to be able to share it with all of you. He has an incredible voice & it’s been awesome getting to work with him and blending my signature sound with his.”

Listen to “My Way,” out now on Ultra Records. Follow along with the rest of the lyrics below.

Lyrics

I’ve been sad, I’ve been lost
I’ve been down and out and lonely
I’ve been suffering at a job
In a world that tries to own me

But when I wake up every morning
There’s an image of a better place
‘Cause the harder that we grind
Then the sweeter is the glory

People say I’m foolish
People say I’m blinded by faith
But if I run out of air
If I crash I don’t care
I’m gonna do it my way

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear ’til I die
I’m gonna do it my way

Aye, aye, aye
Gonna do it my way

So put me down and criticize me
With your lies and with your parody
In the darkness I don’t hide
‘Cause I got pride that gives me clarity

Said I still wake up in the morning
With a image of a better life
Because the option of defeat
Is just not written in my story

People say I’m foolish
People say I’m blinded by faith
But if I run out of air
If I crash I don’t care
I’m gonna do it my way

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear ’til I die
I’m gonna do it my way

Aye, aye, aye
Gonna do it my way

Every time they build a wall around me
Imma tear it down and say
I’m gonna live my dreams
Gotta live my dreams

Even when the floods rush round to drown me
I just hold my breath and pray
Let me live my dreams
Every single one of my
I ain’t quitting none of my dreams

People say I’m foolish
People say I’m blinded by faith
But if I run out of air
If I crash I don’t care
I’m gonna do it my way

I can make it through this
You can throw the world in my face
But the fear gives me life
And I swear ’til I die
I’m gonna do it my way

Aye, aye, aye
Let me fly through the air
If I crash I don’t care
I’m gonna do it my way

Aye, aye, aye
‘Cause the fear gives me life
And I swear ’til I die
I’m gonna do it my way

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
