• I don't want to be
    A lawyer or a doctor
    Or a scientist or a proctor
    I don't want to be what you want me to be

    Because,
    It's MY choice you see

    You can't say that i cannot be
    An actress or a singer
    Or a comedian or an artist
    Just because you don't believe in me

    Because,
    It's MY choice you see

    I like to dream
    And I love to entertain
    I long to break free
    From the world and it's pain

    Because,
    It's MY choice you see

    If I want to date
    Or if I want to get married
    Then let me be
    Let me grow from my own mistakes

    Becuase,
    It's MY choice you see

    If I'm filled with depression
    And I want to die
    Leave me alone
    Let me FLY!

    Because,
    It's my choice you see

    But I don't want to die
    Or date or marry
    But I do long for freedom
    A way to escape these iron chains that bind me

    I would love to be an author
    Write until my heart's content
    To entertain other
    With words and the thoughts in my head

    To forget about school and it's boring ways
    To read and write all day
    Don't you worry my dear parents
    You did right by me

    Because,
    That is MY choice
    That is what I want to be
    Please break my shackles
    Please set me FREE!
