My Prerogative Lyrics

Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
I don't need permission
Made my own decisions
That's my prerogative

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
Gettin' girls is how I live

Some ask the question
Why can't I stay real
But they don't understand me
They really don't know the deal
About my brother trying hard to make it right
Not long ago before I really despised

Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
(Tell me why)
I don't need permission
Made my own decisions
That's my prerogative
(It's my prerogative)

It's my prerogative
It's the way that I wanna live
(It's my prerogative)
I can do just what I feel
(It's my prerogative)
Nobody can tell me what to do
(It's my prerogative)
Cause what I'm doin'
I'm doin' for you

Don't get me wrong
I'm really not a sook
Ego trips is not my thing
All these strange relationships
Really gets me down
I see nothin wrong

Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
(Tell me why)
I don't need permission
Made my own decisions
That's my prerogative
(It's my prerogative)

I can do what I want to do
(It's my prerogative)
I can live my life
(It's my prerogative)
I keep doing it just for you
Just tell me, tell me

Why can't I live my life
Without the all of the things people say

I can do what I want to do
Me and you
Together, together, together

Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live
(Why don't they just let me live)
I don't need permission
Made my own decisions
That's my prerogative
[Repeat and fade]
