Don't be surprised by the way that I am By the way that I feel and I act There's two many rules I really can't choose I can't let those chains hold me back I'd never know what it's like on my own But I'm taking a chance anyway It may not be right like some moves in the night But I've gotta do it my way
I want my Independence I want my freedom right now I want my Independence I want my freedom right now
So what you're saying don't matter to me I'm making my plans all alone But I've got the right to express my emotions Have some space of my own Don't be confused, please don't misunderstand I can't respect your wishes more This time I must say, I want it my way I'm walking out the door
I want my Independence I want my freedom right now I want my Independence I want my freedom, my freedom now This time I walk away This time I'm on my own This time I walk away This time I'm on my own
BREAK
Don't be confused, please don't misunderstand I can't respect your wishes more And this time I must say, I want it my way I'm walking through the door
I want my Independence I want my freedom right now yeah I want my Independence I want my freedom, my freedom now This time I walk away This time I'm on my own This time I walk away This time I'm on my own Oh baby I want my freedom yeah I want my Independence I want my freedom, my freedom, my freedom, my freedom Oh I want my Independence I want my freedom baby yeah yeah I want my Independence And I'm gonna get it, I'm gonna get it
