There was a time when I washed out with the tide that came in your opinion I second guessed what I knew was right It was just to please and so I did it as a friend In need of friends, what I'm looking for 'Cause it won't cut it anymore Take a seat and watch It counts too much It's your decision, so what are you gonna do? I don't need you to make my choices I can speak, you can hear my voice And I don't need you to make my choices I can speak, you can hear my voice The trouble when you go with the flow, you might set yourself up to give Out more than you can A situation that'll come your way Something you don't approve, but you couldn't see And you're right if you're feeling bad Lose yourself following a fad So stick around with who you found will listen to what you gotta say And is it easy? I don't need you to make my choices I can speak, you can hear my voice And I don't need you to make my choices I can speak, you can hear my voice And everyone's not looking for approval Sometimes you gotta go it alone Don't work too hard being normal Just work hard on what you want So I don't need you to make my choices I don't need you to make my choices I don't need you to make my choices! Make my choices I don't need you to make my choices!
