Detour Lyrics


Nothing can hold me back
I'm stronger than before
You tried to knock me out
But I'm coming back for more
You and your selfish ways
You tried to hold me down
You bet that I would lose
But it's you who's losing now
'Cause I'm on the detour
I've been fortunate to take the detour
There's no thrifin' partner on the detour
I've been fortunate to take the detour
They smile up in my face
Than stab me in the back
You didn't soul me out
You have to live with that

Turn on the TV screen
Flip on the radio
You can't get rid of me
My things unstoppable
'Cause I take the detour
I've been fortunate to take the detour
You can't stop me on the detour
I've been fortunate to take the detour
Should've believed in me
Should've never pulled me out
Said I would never be
I don't need you and your doubts
Didn't want to see
Didn't want to see me reach my destiny
Should've never pulled me out
I don't need you and your doubts
Didn't want to see me reach my destiny
Dance
Detour
Detour
There's no thrifin' partner
I've been fortunate
Detour
