Don't think that you can tell me what to think
I'm the one who knows what's good for me
And I'm stating my independence
Gonna take the road I'm gonna take
And Im gonna make my own mistakes
It's my life

I decide
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
Choice is mine and no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
I decide where I'll go
What I need
Who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decide

Don't think you're ever gonna hold me down
Couldn't do it then, can't do it now
I'm kicking down all defenses
I'm gonna do it all and do too much
And if I mess the whole thing up
It's my ride

I decide
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
Choice is mine and no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
I decide where I'll go
Where I sleep
Who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decide

I'm taking my own chances
I'm finding my own answers
I'm only answering to me and it's the way it's gonna be

I decide
Oh yeah yeah
I decide

I decide
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
Choice is mine and no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
I decide where I'll go
Where I sleep
Who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decide

I decide how I live
I decide who I love
Choice is mine and no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
