People can take anything 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 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 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
That's my prerogative
It's my prerogative
It's the way that I'm wanting you
It's my prerogative
You can't tell me what to do
Don't get me wrong
I'm really not sweet ego
Trips is not my thing
All these strange relationships
It really gets me down
I see nothing wrong
Spreading myself around
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
That's my prerogative
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
That's my prerogative
It's the way I wanna live
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
Oh 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 I don't need permission
Make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
It's my prerogative
