People concentrate on whatever happened to me
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
Chorus:
Everybody´s talking all this stuff about me
Why don´t they just let me live? (tell me why)
I don´t need permission
Make my own decisions (oh)
That´s my prerogative
It´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 souped
Ego trips is not my thing
All these strange relationships really gets me down
I see nothing wrong spreadin´ myself around
Chorus (2x):
Everybody´s talking all this stuff about me
Why don´t they just let me live? (tell me why)
I don´t need permission
Make my own decisions (oh)
That´s my prerogative
It´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
Bridge:
Why can´t I live my life
Without all of the things
That people say, oooh
Chorus:
(oh) Everybody´s talking all this stuff about me
Why don´t they just let me live? (tell me why)
I don´t need permission
Make my own decisions (oh)
That´s my prerogative
(They say I´m crazy)
Everybody´s talking all this stuff about me
Why don´t they just let me live? (tell me why)
(They say I´m nasty)
I don´t need permission
Make my own decisions (oh)
That´s my prerogative (it´s my prerogative)
