No Way Lyrics

[Verse 1: Lauren]
I know you don't want me anymore
By the look on your face
They say, "When it rains, it pours"
You can tell by my face


[Pre-Chorus: Normani, Camila]
Oh, and I know
And you know that we've been here before
I think I know how it should end
We've got an audience callin' us crazy
We ignore
Those with opinions of hate
We're not like the rest of them
Friends with insanity as of lately


[Chorus: Lauren]
Everyone comes with scars
But you can love them away
I told you that I wasn't perfect
You told me the same
I think that's why we belong
Together and unashamed
I told you that I wasn't perfect, no way

[Post-Chorus: Lauren & Normani]
Way, way, no way, no way
[Verse 2: Ally, Ally & Normani]
When I look in your eyes
I see through to my soul
Mmm, I know the core of you is good
You're my tarnished hero

[Pre-Chorus: Dinah, Normani, Dinah & Normani]
Oh, and I know (And I know)
And you know how our story is told (How it's told)
Only we know what it is
We've got an audience callin' us crazy (Ooh)
We ignore
Those with opinions of hate
We ain't like the rest of them
Friends with insanity as of lately (Ooh)

[Chorus: Lauren]
Everyone comes with scars
But you can love them away
I told you that I wasn't perfect
You told me the same
I think that's why we belong
Together and unashamed
I told you that I wasn't perfect, no way

[Post-Chorus: Lauren & Normani]
Way, way, no way, no way
[Outro: Lauren & Normani]
No way

Genius Annotation

“No Way” is the final track of the American deluxe version of Fifth Harmony’s sophmore album 7/27, The song talks about a relationship that looks toxic from the outside even though the two of them are in love. According to Lauren:

We were able to emote in a way we hadn’t ever done before in our music and I think that was why it is my favorite because I felt at the time and every time I hear it now the emotion behind the words; and I hadn’t felt that connected to any of the songs in that way before. I love the vulnerability and the reality of the situation.

Genius Answer

It’s insane how much we have been through with “No Way”. It actually was recorded about 2 years ago when we were starting to record the first album, Reflection. The second we got this song I remember listening to it over and over and over and over again with Victoria Monét singing the demo on it (who has one of the most beautiful voices ever) and I just connected so intensely with the lyrics. They were so raw and honest about a relationship that was just toxic but from everyone else’s perspective and about how they know that they’re made for each other and to love each other and to heal each other..but how that love is tricky to keep and have and hold. I just love the way the song takes you on an emotional journey and how you feel the pain of these people’s indecision to love or let go. We were able to emote in a way we hadn’t ever done before in our music and I think that was why it is my favorite because I felt at the time and every time I hear it now the emotion behind the words; and I hadn’t felt that connected to any of the songs in that way before. I love the vulnerability and the reality of the situation.
