Choosing My Own Direction
so i'm young and wild and
carefree
throw my troubles into the breeze
if i'm free to choose my own
life
wh won't you let me be
myself
what a concept
who else am i supposed to be
if i'm going to maximize my
potential
followin in your footsteps
i don't think so
your restrictions
feed my rebellion
to run the opposite direction
and find myself
amidst the chaos you
initiated
i can clearly see what your
fate is
mine looks better
