Chorus 1:
Everybody s talking, all this stuff about me,
Why don t they just let me live?
I don t need permission, make my own decisions;
That s my preroga-tive.
Verse 1:
They say I m crazy, I really don t care; that s my preroga-tive.
They say I m nasty but I don t give a damn; gettin girls is how I live.
Some ask me questions; why am I so real?
But they don t understand me; I really don t know the deal.
About a brother, trying hard to make it right,
Not long ago before, I won this fight, sing;
Chorus 2:
Everybody s talking, all this stuff about me,
Why don t they just let me live?

Bridge 1:
It s my pre-rogative; it s the way that I wanna live.
It s my pre-rogative; I can do just what I feel.
It s my pre-rogative; no one can tell me what to do.
It s my pre-rogative; cos what I m doin , I m doin for you, uh!
Verse 2:
Don t get me wrong; I m really not zooped; ego trips is not my thing.
All these strange relationships, really gets me down,
I see nothin wrong, with spreading myself around, sing;
