My Prerogative

1. People can take everything away from you
But they can never take away your truth
But the question is
Can you handle mine?

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
Getting boys is how I live.

Some ask me questions
Why am I so real
But they don't understand me
I really don't know the deal
About my sister
Trying hard to make it right
Not long ago before I won this fight.

[Chorus:]
Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live (tell me why)
I don't need permission
Make my own descisions (oh)
That's my prerogative.

That's my prerogative
(It's my prerogative)
Its the way that I wanna live
(It's my prerogative)
They can't tell me what to do...

2. Don't get me wrong
I'm really not souped
Ego trips is not my thing
All these strange relationships
It really gets me down
I see nothing wrong
Spreading Myself Around.

[Chorus]
