People can take everything away from you |
|
But they can never take away your truth |
|
But the question is |
|
Can you handle mine? |
|
They say I'm crazy, I really don't care |
|
That's my prerogative |
|
They say I'm nasty but I don't give a damn |
|
Getting boys is how I live |
|
Some ask me questions, why am I so real? |
|
But they don't understand me, I really don't know the deal |
|
About my sister trying hard to make it right |
|
Not long ago before I won this fight |
|
Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me |
|
Why don't they just let me live? |
|
(Tell me, why?) |
|
I don't need permission, make my own decision |
|
(Oh) |
|
That's my prerogative |
|
(That's my prerogative) |
|
(It's my prerogative) |
|
It's the way that I wanna live |
|
(It's my prerogative) |
|
You can't tell me what to do |
|
Don't get me wrong, I'm really not so dumb |
|
Ego trips is not my thing |
|
All these strange relationships, it really gets me down |
|
See nothing wrong, spread myself around |
|
Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me |
|
Why don't they just let me live? |
|
(Tell me, why?) |
|
I don't need permission, make my own decision |
|
(Oh) |
|
That's my prerogative |

|
(It's my prerogative) |
|
You can't tell me what to do |
|
Why can't I live my life |
|
Without all of the things that people say? |
|
Ohh |
|
(Oh) |
|
Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me |
|
Why don't they just let me live? |
|
(Tell me, why?) |
