I see the disappointment in their eyes

I hear the anger in their voices

It’s not my fault that all of you

Disagree with my choices

.

Can’t you let me live my life

The way I want to

Can’t it for once be

About me and not you

.

Who gave you the right

To make my decisions

Who gave you the right

To laugh at my visions

.

Can’t you just understand

I see the world in a different way

Can’t you just pretend

Before I regret the things I say

.

It’s not my fault that all of you

Don’t seem to understand

It’s not my fault that all of you

Simply don’t comprehend

.

I want my life to be my own

I want to choose my actions

Without your disapproval

Or patronizing reactions

.

I want to make my own decisions

I want to be free

But most importantly I just

want to be me
