Don't tell me You're trying to sell me Your take on my song I get it, as long as I let it Life's gonna be long But I'm still burning so I can turn you around Don't tell me what to do, I'll do it I knew it all along, now I see the light Don't tell me that I won't get through it It started out all wrong but I'll make it right You're saying I'm destined for staying Not one chance of a change Keep talkin' cause soon I'll be walkin' Right out of your range And I'll get clear but I'm just not hearing the sound Don't tell me what to do I'll do it And choose between belonging and taking flight Don't tell me that I won't get through it It started out all wrong but I'll make it right My first day Has gone in the worst way Still I'm feeling fine You know how you're running the show now Just wait till it's mine But till that day you will stay be laying him down Don't tell me what to do I'll do it And I'll keep bringing on what it takes to fight Don't tell me that I won't get through it It started out all wrong but I'll make it right (Don't tell me what to do I'll do it) And I'll keep bringing on what it takes to fight (Don't tell me that I won't get through it) It started out all wrong but I'll make it right
