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 lifeI decide, I decide how I live
I decide who I love, choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up
I decideI decide where I'll go
What I need, who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decideDon't think you're ever gonna hold me down
Couldn't do it then, can't do it now
I'm kicking down all defenses
I'm gonna do it all and do too much
And if I mess the whole thing up, it's my rideI decide, I decide how I live
I decide who I love, choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up
I decideI decide where I'll go
Where I sleep, who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decideI'm taking my own chances
I'm finding my own answers
I'm only answering to me
And it's the way it's gonna beI decide
Oh yeah, yeah yeah
I decideI decide, I decide how I live
I decide who I love, choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up
I decideI decide where I'll go
Where I sleep, who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decideI decide how I live
I decide who I love, choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up
