I Got To Go My Own Way lyrics (High school Musical 2)

I gotta say what's on my mind
Something about us
Doesn't seem right these days
Life keeps getting in the way
Whenever we try
Somehow the plan
Is always rearranged
It's so hard to say
But I've got to do what's best for me
You'll be okay

[Chorus]
I've got to move on and be who I am
I just don't belong here
I hope you understand
We might find a place in this world someday
But at least for now
I gotta go my own way

Don't wanna leave it all behind
But I get my hopes up
And I watch them fall every time
Another color turns to gray
And it's just to hard
To watch it all
Slowly fade away
I'm leaving today
'Cause I gotta do what's best for me
You'll be okay

[Chorus]
I've got to move on and be who I am
I just don't belong here
I hope you understand
We might find a place in this world someday
But at least for now
I gotta go my own way


I like this song. Sang by Grabriella to Troy in the film, she decided to leave Troy. I kind of catch the part about having to leave behind something important to you, something you really treasure and appreciate. Somehow, I feel that this can be related to my current situation in which I'm deciding to leave the school. I really feel the words "I've got to move on and be who I am." Perhaps I have been thinking too much to be actually drawing relevance between two completely separate experiences.
