Overprotected Lyrics

Say hello to the girl that I am
You gonna have to see through my perspective
I need to make mistakes just to learn who I am
And I don't wanna be so damn protected

There must be another way
Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do, God I need some answers

What am I to do to win my life
(You are fine and I don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I tell them what I like, what I want, and what I don't
But every time I do, I stand corrected
Things that I've been told
I can't believe what I hear about the world
I realize I'm overprotected

There must be another way
Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do, God I need some answers

What am I to do to win my life
(You are fine and I don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I need time, I need space

I don't need nobody telling me just what I wanna
What I'm, what, what, what I'm gonna do about my destiny
Nobody's telling me just what I wanna do
I'm just so fed up of people telling me to be
Someone else but me

What am I to do to win my life
(You are fine and I don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I don't need nobody telling me just what I wanna
What I'm, what, what, what I'm gonna do about my destiny
Nobody's telling me just what I wanna do
I'm just so fed up of people telling me to be
Someone else but me

What am I to do to win my life
(You are fine and I don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected
