I need time (time) (love)
Joy (joy)
I need space (love)
I need me

(action)

Say hello to the girl that i am
You're 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 with my life (you'll find it out, don't worry)
How am i supposed to know what's right (you just got to do it your way)
I can't help the way i feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I tell 'em 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 realized 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 with my life (you'll find it out, don't worry)
How am i supposed to know what's right (you just got to do it your way)
I can't help the way i feel (help the way i feel)
But my life has been so overprotected

I need time (love)
I need space (this is it)

I don't need nobody telling me just what i wanna
What i want want
What i'm gonna (i need) do about my destiny
(i say just) nobody's telling me just what i wanna (do)
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me
