I Live the Way I Want to Live

They talk about me 24/7 It's been like that since I was 11 I should be able to make my own decisions I'm just glad that I got a vision I don't need permission to do So they should have back off because they know it's true I'm grateful that God gave me a gift I live the way I want to live They can say what they want, it's just that I don't care I was here before you fair and square All the fame All the girls, all of those things is what makes my world They don't seem to think the struggle is real I do what I want, so what's the big deal And no matter what, I still do what's right This is my time, so shine the light They talk about me 24/7 It's been like that since I was 11 I should be able to make my own decisions I'm just glad that I got a vision I don't need permission to do So they should have back off because they know it's true I'm grateful that God gave me a gift I live the way I want to live Everything they say about me is just wrong And yet I have the power to always stay strong Getting into trouble is not my thing I don't want to put myself into gangs There are people that want to throw down But all I want to do is dance around And no matter what, I still do what's right This is my time, so shine the light They talk about me 24/7 It's been like that since I was 11 I should be able to make my own decisions I'm just glad that I got a vision I don't need permission to do So they should have back off because they know it's true I'm grateful that God gave me a gift I live the way I want to live What is wrong with having money in my pocket? Everything I say, haters always got to mock it Haters are haters, and they think they're slick They're the ones that make this world a trip Why can't I do what I want to do? Didn't I do everything for you? And no matter what, I still do what's right This is my time, so shine the light They talk about me 24/7 It's been like that since I was 11 I should be able to make my own decisions I'm just glad that I got a vision I don't need permission to do So they should have back off because they know it's true I'm grateful that God gave me a gift I live the way I want to live They talk about me 24/7 It's been like that since I was 11 I should be able to make my own decisions I'm just glad that I got a vision I don't need permission to do So they should have back off because they know it's true I'm grateful that God gave me a gift I live the way I want to live
