Don't think that you can

tell me what to think

I'm the one who knows what's good for me

And I'm stating my independence

Gonna take the road I'm gonna take

And I'm gonna make my own mistakes

It's my life

I decide

I decide how I live

I decide who I love

Choice is mine

And no one gets to make my mind up

I decide

I decide where I go

What I need

Who I know

I'm the one who's runnin' my life

I decide

I decide

Don't think you're ever

gonna hold me down

Couldn't do it then can't do it now

I'm kickin' down all the fences

I'm gonna do it all and do too much

And if I mess the whole thing up

It's my ride

I decide

I decide how I live

I decide who I love

Choice is mine

And no one gets to make my mind up

I decide

I decide where I go

Where I sleep

Who I know

I'm the one who's runnin' my life

I decide

I decide

I'm taking my own chances

And I'm finding my own answers

I'm only answering to me

And that's the way it's gonna be

I decide

Oh yeah

I decide

I decide

I decide how I live

I decide who I love

Choice is mine

And no one gets to make my mind up

I decide

I decide where I go

Where I sleep

Who I know

I'm the one who's runnin' my life

I decide

I decide

I decide how I live

I decide who I love

Choice is mine

And no one gets to make my mind up

I decide
