[Verse 1]
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 I'm gonna make my own mistakes
It's my life
I decide
[Chorus 1]
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
The choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
I decide where I go
What I need, who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decide
[Verse 2]
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 the fences
I'm gonna do it all and do too much
And if I mess the whole thing up
It's my right
I decide
[Chorus 2]
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
The choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
I decide where I go
Where I sleep, who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decide
[Bridge]
I'm taking my own chances
I'm finding my own answers
I'm only answering to me
And that's the way it's gonna be
I decide
Oh, yeah, yeah
I decide
I decide
[Chorus 2]
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
The choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
I decide where I go
Where I sleep, who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decide
[Outro]
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
The choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
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 I'm gonna make my own mistakes
It's my life
I decide
[Chorus 1]
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
The choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
I decide where I go
What I need, who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decide
[Verse 2]
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 the fences
I'm gonna do it all and do too much
And if I mess the whole thing up
It's my right
I decide
[Chorus 2]
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
The choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
I decide where I go
Where I sleep, who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decide
[Bridge]
I'm taking my own chances

And that's the way it's gonna be

Where I sleep, who I know
I'm the one who's running my life
I decide, I decide
[Outro]
I decide how I live
I decide who I love
The choice is mine
And no one gets to make my mind up, I decide
