This is my life
You can't control me
I ain't no puppet

If I won't do something
Don't try to control me
It won't work

I am my own person
I do what I want
And I love what I do
Don't try to change that

It's my life
Not yours

Take care of your life
Stay out of mine

My life
My world
My choices

The author's comments:
I wrote this because I am sick and tired of people trying to control me. They need to realize I am not a little kid anymore. This is my life to make mistakes and to learn from them.
