My Prerogative lyrics

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
truth 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?

I don't need permission
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
That's my prerogative

It's the way that
I wanna live
They can't tell me
what to do

Don't get me wrong
I'm really not souped

Ego trips
are not my thing

All these
strange relationships
It really gets me down

I see nothing wrong
spreading myself around

Everybody's talkin'
all this stuff about me
Why don't they
just let me live?

I don't need permission
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
That's my prerogative

Everybody's talkin'
all this stuff about me
Why don't they
just let me live?

I don't need permission
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
That's my prerogative

It's the way that
I wanna live

They can't tell me
what to do

Why can't I
live my life

Without all of the
things that
people say?

Oh...

Everybody's talkin'
all this stuff about me
Why don't they
just let me live?

I don't need permission
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
That's my prerogative

Everybody's talkin'
all this stuff about me
Why don't they
just let me live?

I don't need permission
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
