choosin' my own way of life

my life!

people try to tell me how to live my life

try to fill me up with false hopes and lies

show me the truth they say they'll show the light

don't try to tell me i'm wrong when i know i'm right

well

i don't need it

i don't need it

i don't need it

all i need is

choosin' my own way of life

well

i choosin' my own way of life

now i'm mad as hell and i ain't gonna take it

and if you think i am i think you're fuckin' mistaken

lock me in

but you can't lock me out

you can cut off my tongue

but i'll still scream and shout

you say it's so

but i'll wait and we see

'cause i'm living fast

i'm living free

i'm free

i'm living on the other side

choosin' my own way of life

well

i'm choosin' my own way of life

i'd rather have a penny than a heart of gold

and i'd rather die young than do as i'm told

i trust no one 'cause i'm no fucking fool

and i learn on my own i don't need your schools

you say it's so

but i'll wait and see

'cause i'm living fast

i'm living free

i'm free

i'm living on the other side

choosin' my own way of life

well

i'm choosin' my own way of life

choosin' my own way of life

it's my life

choosin' my own way of life

and i don't need nobody's help
